Lead Generation & Filling The Top of The Funnel
#SalesChats: Episode 48

Lead generation and filing the top of the funnel is a top goal for salespeople and sales managers. This includes engaging prospects to position yourself or the product in a way that provokes interest, and then filter them down the rest of the sales funnel, through each stage in the buying process, until they close a deal. Monika D’Agostino discusses lead generation in this #SalesChat, hosted by John Golden and Martha Neumeister.

D’Agostino explains:
• The importance of finding the right target audience, and how to locate qualified leads within that audience, starting with research
• Quality of leads is better than the quantity of leads
• The hesitancy of salespeople to target people that aren’t in their target market, and how to overcome this hesitancy
• Developing communication styles that are specific and targeted to your ideal buyer
• Top tactics to generate qualified leads using a comprehensive and holistic approach
• Mindful engagement and creating a feeling for the prospect that they matter, which starts with the salesperson doing research before interacting with the prospect
• The importance of using LinkedIn, and how to leverage it as a tool in order to network, generate leads and build your buyer persona
• Utilizing the best listening skills and tracking what the buyer says so that you can have insightful conversations with your buyer
• Tips for qualifying leads, and understanding what clients would be good for you and a suitable fit for your organization
• The importance of knowing who you are engaging with within the organization, and who the decision maker is
• How to create a set of strategically designed questions that are designed to uncover your prospect’s need
