About this episode
How would increasing your word-of-mouth reputation affect your sales pipeline in the short and long term? A referral from your network is one of the most credible and cost-effective forms of marketing. For salespeople, activating and amplifying word-of-mouth can shorten your sales cycles and build trust faster than any website or email. But is this an effective form of prospecting for immediate sales results?
Let's dust off that prospecting plan from 2007 as Bill and I dive into Increasing Word-of-Mouth and other noteworthy nuggets on Episode 670 of the Winning at Selling Podcast.
