Lead generation and outreach
Why does only one person answer each lead?
Because two replies to the same person, minutes apart and saying different things, undo the trust the first message earned. We check the sent folder right before every send.
How it goes wrong
Two people, or two tools, pick up the same enquiry. Each writes a good reply. The lead receives both. We have made this mistake, and the rule below is what came out of it.
The rule
- Right before sending, read the thread again.
- Search for anything already sent to that address that day.
- If someone has replied since you started, stop and talk to them.
Why it matters to you
The same habit protects your own customers. One enquiry should get one answer from one person who owns it.
Where this comes from
This is how our own team works every day. It is not taken from one client.
