Why Consistent Follow-Up Wins More Deals
Most salespeople give up too early. The data is clear: 80% of sales require at least five follow-up contacts, yet 44% of salespeople give up after just one follow-up.
## The Follow-Up Gap
This creates a massive opportunity for those who persist. By simply maintaining consistent contact with your prospects, you're already outperforming nearly half your competition.
## Building Your Cadence
The key is having a system. Without one, follow-ups fall through the cracks. You forget who you called last week. You lose track of when to reach out again.
That's exactly why we built DailyDial - to make consistent follow-up automatic.
## The Right Frequency
How often should you follow up? It depends on your industry and deal size, but here's a general framework:
- **Hot leads**: Every 2-3 days
- **Warm prospects**: Weekly
- **Nurture contacts**: Every 2-4 weeks
## Take Action
Start by auditing your current follow-up habits. How many touches does your average deal take? Where are prospects falling through the cracks?
Then build a system to ensure no opportunity is forgotten.
