Your next step would be networking. If you are in sales, nothing can be more important than networking. So, if you are not doing it, start. And if you are doing it now, do it more.

No matter how much time you are spending in the office, spend less.

Think about it, how much time do you actually spend selling in a day?

On average, a sales person spends two hours a day selling. Why are they in sales to begin with.

Join networking groups, chambers of commerce, rotary?s, community involvement programs, etc., etc.

And, don?t forget your friends and family, they should be a big part of any sales persons? referral arsenal.

Never shy away from talking yourself up at family gatherings or bar-b-ques.

There is always somebody in a crowd that needs or knows someone that needs to refinance or purchase a home. So keep the business cards handy.

Also, don?t forget about your past customers. Give them a call to follow up and make sure they are still satisfied. And, while you have them on the phone, let them know you would appreciate any business they could send your way.
