Summer is here, and while your customers are hitting the beach, your inbox is hitting pause. Even the best salespeople aren’t immune to the summer slowdown…but with the right mindset and strategy, the summer slump doesn’t have to mean lost momentum.
Prospects go on vacation and sales calls, texts, and emails go unanswered. Foxie knows that business doesn’t stop when the sun comes out and temperatures are in the 90’s, and that is why we have gathered some of our top tips to help you stay ahead of the game.
How to stay productive and profitable all summer long:
- Keep Prospecting – Even if it feels like no one is responding, now is the time to fill the top of your pipeline. The groundwork you lay today becomes tomorrow’s closed deals.
- Revisit Old Deals – Follow up with prospects who weren’t ready a few months ago. Their situation might have changed, and the timing could now be perfect.
- Upsell Current Customers – Check in with existing clients. Are they running into limitations? A simple upsell conversation can result in big wins with minimal effort.
- Ask for Referrals – Reconnect with your best customers. Not only is this a confidence booster, but it’s a great time to ask for referrals…and warm leads are always easier to close.
