What would happen to your sales results if every representative sat down and prepared a well written personal letter, then signed and mailed it to the prospect or customer every time they knew that’s what they should do?

Hypothetical Question?

Corresponding Professionally….

- Differentiates you from competitors

- Commands the attention professionals deserve

So…. Why Don’t We?

- Takes too long – particularly with compliance- Not sure of exactly what to say

- Too many pressing matters at the moment

- It’s a real world, and look boss…I’m real busy
