E61 | Difference Makers Keep All Their Weeding For The Garden

How do you qualify leads? Are you calling every lead and making a quick judgement? Or are you spending time and effort getting to know them? Quick judgements may seem like a sensible strategy, but the team discussed the importance of quality over quantity, particularly when it comes to how you spend your time.   Ronan asks Jeanine and Steve how they weed out the leads from their marketing and discover which of them are actually going to make a booking. Jeanine reflects on the detriment of pre-judging your leads and making them jump through hoops to prove they’re worth a conversation. Steve tells the story of how managers framed their requirements to enable their teams to make bookings much more efficiently.
