Sales Persistence: 120 Contacts to Close a Single Sale – With Joe Uddeme

Sales Persistence: 120 Contacts to Close a Single Sale – With Joe Uddeme

You’re lazy.

There. I said it.

If you’re like most of us, when you identify a potential domain name buyer or seller, you might reach out a handful of times. But after hearing “no” once or twice, you move on.

Broker Joe Uddeme, however, knows that success requires on average eight to 10 contacts per buyer or seller. In fact, one of his sales took 120 contacts to close the deal. If you’re making only a few contacts, chances are you’re quitting too soon.

Judging by the $10 million Uddeme did in deals last year, persistence pays off.

Learn what Uddeme does to close sales, how he does it, how often he does it, and how you can do it too. Plus, there’s a ton of inspiration in this show that you don’t want to miss.
