Additional Key FindingsAdditional Key Findings
• You Know Where They Are• At their computer desk, probably right near their phone
• We call this “presence”. If you call them immediately, theyanswer. If you wait, they move on to something else, oftenaway from their phone.
• Highest Interest or Need• People search the Internet because they want things now
• Interest and need wane quickly• A few days later they often don’t even remember they
submitted a lead• Immediacy of response hits the respondent at their highest
point of interest or need.
The The ““WOWWOW”” Effect Effect
• Our sales representatives often experience the “wow effect” whenour web-form call back technology contacts a person who submitteda lead in less than 3 seconds.
• The respondent quite often reacts with, “wow, that was fast!• You are impressive• “We have been told that they feel that the sales representative
must be really on top of things, and that is the kind of person andcompany they want servicing their – account”
• First impressions continue to have a strong influence on trust andrelationships.
