Let Metrics Drive Decisions
- Measure target metrics (names sourced, lead meetings, prospect meetings) and compare actuals monthly.
- Use that history to identify which activities actually drive client conversion.
Follow Up By Adding Value
- Follow up with genuine value: reference LinkedIn, share relevant content, or offer relevant introductions.
- Maintain a respectful drip approach and back off when recipients stop engaging.
Outsource Marketing, Keep Execution In-House
- Outsource marketing if you lack packaging or promotion skills and use an outside firm to build a content calendar.
- Maintain an internal person to execute and track engagement from campaigns.
