What do you call someone who doesn’t purchase from you?


October 18, 2012

 

An ambassador for your company! Just because you don’t close that sale doesn’t mean that you should disengage with that potential customer. All the effort you have put into selling them on your homes, educating them on the process, your company and what it offers is still all valid. Just because they walk out the door not signing, doesn’t mean they won’t come back, next week, month, year or even after they have lived in a home they now go buy from your competitor. If they don’t buy from you now, what you need to ensure is that they wish they had as they experience your competitor’s home. That they remember and realize how much better your customer service process would have been, how much more they would have been educated on their home, how much more they would have saved on energy bills and so on. This is what they will be telling friends and family. So remember if the sale isn’t working ensure, don’t ‘drop’ them, rather continue to treat them with the same level of respect.  They will be leaving with information and a great experience so that they will remember you and be ambassadors for you.
