The One Email Guaranteed to Get You a Response!

Ever had a client or prospect never get back to you?

Because you're in sales, then I know it's happened to you (or is happening with several of your clients or prospects right now!).

If you ever find yourself in a place where you've qualified a prospect, sent information to them on your product or service, and then find that they just won't return your calls or emails, then I've got a guaranteed email that will get you a response.

Subject of your email: "Should I stay or Should I go?"

"_________ While I've tried to reach you, I haven't heard back from you and that tells me one of three things:

1) You've already chosen another company for this and if that's the case please let me know so can I stop bothering you,

2) You're still interested but haven't had the time to get back to me yet

3) You've fallen and can't get up and in that case please let me know and I'll call 911 for you...

Please let me know which one it is because I'm starting to worry...

Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing back from you."

Is that great or what?? This works on so many levels including using a "Clash" song everyone can relate to in the subject line, to giving them options and an out in case they've decided not to work with you.

And, of course, you give people a reason to smile and that always relieves the pressure from the sales situation.

Use it this week and see for yourself how it works to get your prospects to get back with you and how it gets you deals.

(Note: this email technique was one I learned earlier this week from an Jeffrey Gitomer post featuring Mike Brooks)

During my freshman year at Butler University, I decided to transfer programs because I felt I wasn't fulfilling my football potential. The head coach didn't agree with my decision and stated that I'd never play a lick at the division one level.

Fortunately the switch proved beneficial, I started the next three years at Purdue and played on a Big Ten Championship Team with all pro teammates like Drew Brees. Needless to say the Risk - Reward paid off.

My encouragement is to dare yourself, accept the dare, and take the risk. Have you ever taken a risk and succeeded? Didn't it seem like less of a risk after the event was over than before you were willing to take it? Ask yourself why you're avoiding making that high level executive connection that may or break a huge sale. Or why you're fearful to launch a new business idea that would help you pursue a life long dream.

After all, the greatest risk in life is not taking one at all.
