Free Items Can Make Lead Nurturing Successful No marketer or businessman can deny the importance and the difficulty of making customers happy or keeping them interested in your current and future product offerings. Prospects are very fickle; one wrong move and they’ll forget you ever existed in their mailboxes or phone databanks. It doesn’t help that marketing should be done aggressively and persistently. You have to keep calling or reminding your prospects to buy or at least check out your products. Most marketing campaigns fail because of the apparent misinterpretation of this basic rule of marketing. Some also fail utterly simply because they don’t the necessary “umph” to catch the prospective client’s fancy and interest for the items. Unfortunately, that’s what lead nurturing is all about: touching so lightly on prospective clients’ interest and tickle their curious minds enough to make them check out and even buy your offerings. You don’t have to worry too much about that though. There is still one trick that you can bring up your sleeve that can help make your marketing campaigns succeed. It is a bit unorthodox and some companies actually refute the effectiveness of this technique, but the results have spoken for themselves in most cases. Regular Follow-Up Is Simply Not Enough It is one of the basic tenets of marketing that marketers should regularly make follow ups to their customers and prospective clients. The aim is to drum knowledge of the company and product to the person’s memory through continued reminders. It actually works. For example, an online piano teacher can make a potential student remember his offered lessons by constantly emailing him about the product. However, it is simply not enough for the student to remember. He should be driven to actually partake of the lessons. That’s where the real money for the teacher comes: in the lessons. If you are the teacher, what could you do make your lead nurturing result to an actual sale? You have done your part. You have introduced your product to your potential customers in the best words as possible. Why is it that these leads do not respond and order a lesson package from you? You probably have the answer, and that is you lack something in your marketing. Let us call this lacking element, in this discussion, as a sneak preview. Give Your Customers a Quick Peek at your Products The idea is that it is simply not enough to push information about your product in your customers’ faces in your lead nurturing efforts. They’d surely understand and comprehend what you are all about that way, but to close a sale, you must



give them something that will capitalize on the interest they have for your product and push them to buy. When you decide to watch a movie, what is the other catalyst for your decision aside from the interest? It is the trailer. An interesting trailer can turn even the most boring movie into a box office success. That is because the trailer shows viewers what they can expect about the upcoming movie. The trailer builds up the hype. The same concept can apply to your marketing. As a piano teacher, you can give your potential students free lessons. You can start with the basic lessons. If your potential student likes the lessons – assuming you made it as attractive as possible – then he will buy the full package from you. Some marketers disagree with this practice, arguing that it is impractical and goes against the tenets of marketing. However, in most cases, potential customers do not buy a product unless they are sure of its quality. In this case, the sneak preview practice works best.
