There are several main reasons why managers lose leads:

Lack of efficiency. A slow response to a request reduces the likelihood that the client will remain interested. Most often, a potential client leaves requests in several campaigns at once, and not only the best one wins, but also the fastest one.
Incorrect lead qualification . Managers often do not italy mobile database pay enough attention to initial qualification and miss potentially valuable leads in pursuit of big checks.
Inability to handle objections . Ineffective handling of objections leads to the client losing interest.
Lack of structure in work . Managers may forget to contact the client again, which also leads to loss of the lead.
Ineffective work with a lead at any stage can lead to its “burnout”. If a lead does not receive due attention, it goes to competitors, and the company loses the opportunity to sell.
