m: don't worry, most of the leads on mildly interested, if not strongly interested. we've just got to make sure the hot ones are contacted right away. and even the contacts that for what ever reason aren't prepared to make an order now, they might be interested in the future.please be conscanciouss about getting a hold of everyone of these leads. we've spent a big chunk of marketing budget to find these people.i don't want our investment to go down the drain.
f: don't worry, i've gotchya covered.
這是從上周的貿易展銷會上得到的展品線索.有40個左右的人對我們的產品感興趣.你應該立即與他們取得聯系,盡可能在24小時內完成.其他的按照潛力大小和興趣進行分類.我要告訴你我們已經把這些人分成了最感興趣的,比較感興趣的,有點兒興趣的和稍微有興趣的,但沒有一點兒興趣沒有的.
哈哈...請不要告訴我你們有對我們一點兒興趣都沒有的顧客名單.我不喜歡打陌生的推銷電話...
別擔心,大部分線索即使沒有很大的興趣也都還是有點兒意思.我們只是一定要確保立即與最感興趣的顧客取得聯系.不管是什么原因,即使那些顧客現在沒有準備訂購我們的產品,他們將來也可能會感興趣.請認真抓好每一條線索.我們花了一大筆銷售預算才找出這些人.我不想讓我們的投資付諸東流.
放心,我一定會幫你忙的.
