Vary your follow-up method daily: text, call, email, repeat. Stick with 5 to 8 contact attempts before offering to step back. Keep your message the same across channels so prospects know what you want.
But on Monday, you might send that message by a text. On Tuesday, it might be a phone call, or Wednesday, it might be a phone call. On Thursday or Friday, it might be an email. If your only way of following up is with email, that's very easy to ignore, right? Because we get hundreds of emails. So your message should be very consistent, like, what's our next step together? Any update on this project's appreciated. The message is consistent. But you vary the method of the follow-up. And then, you know, just basically at the, at the end of 5, 6, 8 attempts, if you're not hearing something, then something else is amiss. You might need to go back to the previous advice and give them permission to say no, or ask them if they want to be let go out of this, this thought, or whatever the circumstance is.
