Business To Business Lead Generation
B2B Lead Generation: The Truth
There is one major myth that most people believe when it comes to so-called ‘business to business’ (b2b) marketing – the fact that it exists at all. In fact, business to business marketing uses the same principles as business to consumer marketing, for one very good reason:

Prospecting Letters Skyrocket Sales
Writing effective prospecting letters can be a challenge. But once you get it right, the flood gates open and out pours more business opportunities than you ever dreamed possible.
The main objective of a prospecting letter is to get your prospect to expect your call or even call you and set up an appointment (assuming they are either not on the do not call list, or you are business to business prospecting…check with the do not call list for details if you are not sure).
But we are jumping the gun. First, you must make sure it gets into the hands of your prospect. Relying on the USPS is not always the best option. As a matter of fact, it may do more harm that good. If your margins allow it, test using Fed Ex. You’ll feel confident that every time you deliver your letter via Fed Ex, it will get opened by your prospect. BUT…
To have the best possible chance of success you should do a little warming up. Send one or two prospecting letters that soft sell your services. Then send another letter that ‘warns’ your prospect of your Fed Ex.
If you do a good job in your copywriting you will have a good open rate and your appointments will grow exponentially.
Use these tips in conjunction with my secret video on prospecting (hurry, I may take it down) and you’ll probably be rolling in the dough.
See my article…ok my Blog…on lead generation letters for more tips on creating marketing letters that get the desired response you are looking for. Or, check out my killer lead generation course for my best marketing and lead generation tips and secrets. OK? Do it now. I’m pretty good at this stuff.

Lead Generation Letters
Successful lead generation letters are measured by response rates, and return on investment. Not by how good they look or how well they were written.
Most marketers are focused on getting a good response rate rather than getting a good return on investment. In other words, if you have a pile of leads on your desk from a lead generation letter but the quality of the leads is poor, then your return on investment will be very low.
The key to creating effective lead generation letters begins with researching your market first, targeting your marketing, and then writing your lead generation letter.
I’ll give you a few tips on lead generation letters in a moment, but first read this… Read the rest of this entry »
