Follow Up

[AKRA45]

i have bid about 11 commercial accounts in the last three weeks. i have not heard anything back from them. what do i do know. how do i follow up with them so i can get the contract.

Clean your truck, put on your best company attire, and start busting through theyre doors. Start at 9 am as not to barge in during theyre first cup of coffee. Expect not to get anywhere w/ some of them but you will surely find out something about some of them. 11 total,,, you will surely impress at least 1 of these accounts with your personal persistance. Make sure its been at least 1 week since you dropped the bid on any particular site. Fridays are great to do this,, reason,,, individuals have all weekend to sit around and process the past week at work before theyre bombbarded w/ new workload. Your visit is sure to run through the mind of the decision maker over the course of the weekend if you are able to get in front of them on friday.
Good luck!

you dont think i should call them.

[Seascape]

You could. How bad you want them?

Go see them, you will get further in person than a phone call, they have whats called a HOLD button and trust me they use it. I made 15 contacts today and i have 20 on the books for tommorrow, what else ya gotta do the grass aint growin yet ha ha.

it would honestly really help me bring my business to the level i want it to be.

also, do you think i should call it quits on the commercial advertising by now or try to keep milking it. i should have started in fall, but im just trying to learn as i go. can i pm you
