In the fast-paced business world of Singapore, especially in the B2B lead generation, if you are too slow in looking for sales leads, then you will get beaten by your competition. It’s true that when you say sales, it’s always a numbers game. However, the problem is you might be going too fast.

If you are targeting SMBs or even big companies, making 200 calls per days is not an answer to get hold of your prospects. Why? Many decision makers have stopped answering their phones and direct them to voicemails – which are deleted soon after you’ve left a message, especially if they know it came from a salesperson.

In my 10 years of experience as a salesperson, I’ve discovered that it is important to take your time to nurture and build the relationship with your prospects to win them and convert them into loyal customers.

Here are 4 ways to win your prospects the right way.
