To start 2010, how about 10 Tips to Improve Internet Response Times in 2010!
1. Text messages and email alerts - Immediately notify yourself when new leads are received
2. Manually sending an email or logging a phone call attempt counts as a response. (Auto-responder emails don’t count.)
3. Respond to leads from your smart phone if your CRM supports it
4. Lead “buckets” - Don’t assign leads to any particular person but instead put them in a bucket and whichever sales rep gets to it first, gets it!
5. Use a fully mobile enabled CRM system that allows you to view complete lead details, send emails and log phone calls.
6. Unresponded lead alerts - Setup your CRM to email a manager if leads aren’t responded to within a certain timeframe.
7. Alert prompts within your CRM – Receive popup notifications automatically when new leads arrive.
8. Use a phone calling service that can instantly call the customer when a lead is received. Response times can be <5 minutes!
9. Netbook – Use a netbook or laptop on to the go to respond to leads
10. 3rd party monitoring services – They can ensure all leads are being responded to on time. (Some even offer 24 hours monitoring.)
