You're facing objections from a lead. How can you communicate effectively with tailored empathy?
I learned as a sales and marketing professional to use FEEL-FELT-FOUND. It’s not a sales trick, but rather a formula that’s says, “ I hear you say you FEEL you did not get what you wanted from your last marketing advisor/agency/PR firm. I understand you FELT let down by your the provider. But, what our clients FIND, is that when we walk through our proven methodology/training/approach (fill in your blanks) together, they gain both knowledge and results that add value to their businesses/organizations. I remember thinking no way! FEEL-FELT-FOUND, “are you kidding me?” But it worked because it showed I listened with empathy, was sympathetic, and then explained how the future was different working with my company or (in the past) my employers.

You're aiming to boost lead generation. How can you align with marketing for targeted campaigns?
As a former salesperson turned marketer, find ways to get marketing and sales to work together to achieve marketing and sales goals. If possible, have marketing spend some days with a salesperson out in the field or in a pitch. Have sales people spend time with marketing and join in on marketing meetings. Make the agreement to deliver leads and revenue between the departments a contract with measurable results. Make compensation based on revenue generation a shared experience - create incentives based on the lead quality and conversion in addition to sales commissions. Finally, foster a culture of teamwork, collaboration and respect that allows for all to communicate when marketing or sales isn’t working and celebrate when it does.

Someone had to write it…and that’s why a group of top consultants in Los Angeles did. THE Book on Business from A to Z; The 260 Most Important Answers You Need to Know is the result of trying to constantly answer clients’ questions across a vast range of business topics. After frequent discussions about some of our most challenging engagements, the coauthors realized that we had one thing in common: Clients who were regularly asking questions about many areas beyond our individual areas of expertise. We wanted to be able to provide an ongoing resource for those questions that arise when we are not in front of our clients. This book covers 26 of the most important business topics in the world today. Jennifer Beever wrote the chapter on Marketing, answering the 10 most frequently asked marketing questions business owners have.
