When it comes to finding new leads for your business, many female entrepreneurs are struggling to create a consistent flow of leads. And it does not need to be this way. Finding leads can be easy when you follow these guidelines.
First of all creating leads should be something that you, your team, or automation give time to daily. You constantly need to be out there to make sure that you work on getting leads daily.
This can be through:
You should only stop searching for leads when your business gets too busy and you are unable to handle the constant flow of new clients anymore. This is a reason to start hiring people to delegate tasks to, or to slow down. If you are feeling overwhelmed with too many tasks or responsibilities, I share about overcoming this in another post. You can also consult a business coach for women to help you manage the growth of your business.
On the other hand, when your clients start to complain, then you know:
For all the above reasons, most business coaches for female entrepreneurs would advise you to stop your lead generation and first make sure that the issues are solved before you start to onboard more clients.
Lead generation is finding the right people to have communication with. This can be written communication such as emails, blogs, social media, and sales pages. Or this can be spoken communication such as calls, videos, presentations, or webinars.
When you communicate with these leads, they can eventually become your paying customers.
To be able to have these communications, female entrepreneurs need to do a lot of marketing so that these people will see their online communications or will schedule a call with them.
As a business coach for women, I assure you that having a personal call or even a personal visit can be the most trustworthy way to sell your service when you have high prices. For low ticket prices, online communication (selling) is very appropriate as it will cost you less time.
When you start with lead generation, you need to know what the duration of your sales cycle is. The sales cycle is the first time your potential clients (prospect) communicate with you by written communication, call, or even when they ask for a brochure, or opt-in to your email list,
until they become a paying customer.
Depending on which audience you target and what the price or product is, this can be a short cycle of a couple of minutes or even months to years for large organizations who you want as your client. According to reports, the average sales cycle takes from 2-12 months.
This depends on:
When you take these factors into account, you can roughly estimate how many leads you need daily, weekly, and monthly
To be able to find out how much time and money you need to find the right amount of leads daily, weekly, or monthly, you need to know the following factors:
For example, we need to have around 30-50 inbox conversations (inbox conversation is when we speak to someone on Facebook Messenger or LinkedIn inbox) to have one scheduled call. To be able to get 50 new people to visit our profiles and start a conversation with, we need to send out at least 200 new connection requests (which we can automate).
We need to have roughly 4 scheduled calls to have 1 sale. Clients don’t always book immediately because sometimes they need to find the money to pay, which can take them up to 2-4 months. So even when they decide to work with me immediately, this sales cycle is a lot longer since they often start 2-4 months later.
The above is just an example of one of the systems we use for lead generation. As you can see. this is a LOT of work! Yet it pays off immensely.
Do I have time to this all on my own? NO.
Do I want to do all these things myself? NO.
I only want to have the calls.
