LEAD GENERATION DOES NOT MATTER!
Did I get your attention?
I bet you think I am crazy, but it’s true!
Lead generation does not matter IF you do not have a quality system and CRM in place to nurture those leads! Without that quality system, your lead is just another name, email address, and phone number.
So what is a CRM?
It stands for Customer Relationship Manager. It is essentially a piece of software that allows you to keep all of your clients, leads, business relationships and networking partners all in one place with their contact information and previous communication.
So, are you ready to MAKE LEAD GENERATION MATTER?
The quality of your lead generation strategy is the single most important process you will have to find and convert new clients and customers. Effectively nurturing leads throughout the stages of your sales pipeline is invaluable for building your business and can have a positive impact on your productivity.
Building a pipeline workflow will establish a visual snapshot of where your prospects stand in the sales process. Developing a sales pipeline will help you:
- Forecast revenue
- Improve your sales process
- Analyze different strategies of your business
- And review progress

So do you have a CRM?
The first thing most Solopreneurs tell me is “It’s just me, I don’t need a CRM” I will tell you that, BECAUSE it’s just you, you NEED a CRM so that you are not leaving money on the table.
I was just on “The Discovery Call” Podcast talking about this exact subject. I invite you to take a listen to hear why that you need this even as a solopreneur!
The goal of a CRM system is simple: Improve business relationships.
Connect. Reach Out. Monetize.
CRM enables a business to deepen its relationships with its clients and nurture them through the customer journey. Establishing relationships and keeping track of your prospects and clients is crucial for business acquisition and retention.
