In sales and marketing, speed is everything. The fate of your business depends on how quickly you can turn promising leads on your website into paying customers. The faster you capture the intent, the faster you will make the sale, and the faster your business will grow.
The traditional approach from marketers and salespeople of using lengthy contact forms and delayed callbacks doesn’t cut it anymore. We now live in an on-demand world where customers can research, buy and sell everything they want with just a few clicks.
Today we’re releasing a new guide on real-time sales. We believe it’s the future of selling – modern prospects expect a real-time buying experience and the most effective way to give it to them is through live chat, whether it’s 1:1 conversations with your sales reps or automated by a chatbot. If you want to win business in this new world, you need to connect with leads when it’s convenient for them, not hours, days or even weeks later.
Live chat allows your sales reps to talk to leads at the exact moment when they’re most engaged – on your website. And once you’ve started a conversation, you’re able qualify them on the spot and move the deal forward. No forms, no call backs, just conversations with sales-ready leads in real-time.
