118 | Lindsay Cook Shares How Sales Success Requires Endless Persistent Follow Up
Do you ever struggle with the endless persistence of follow up?
Lindsay Cook is the co-founder and CEO of FitOn - a new digital fitness company that is redefining the workout experience with the ultimate platform for group fitness - anytime, anywhere. Cook has always been a proponent of fitting fitness into her life to help release the built up stress that came with being a mother and working long hours. When she realized that balancing such a busy lifestyle was a struggle that not only she faced, she knew something had to be done. That’s where the idea for FitOn came to be and in January of 2019 Cook introduced the world to the fitness app that provides on-demand fitness classes that fit the user's moods and locations at any given moment.
Follow up feels endless, doesn’t it?
One of the most surprising aspects of sales is how many people do not follow up. But, if you’ve been following me for ANY length of time, you know follow up is key!
Investors, influencers, and consumers are constantly hit with opportunities and content - but when you personally follow up with them, you set yourself apart with the connections!
But still, so many people do not follow up, because they are afraid.
You’ve given your pitch, and you don’t have an immediate answer. Your business is on the line, you’ve got to figure out your investors, where the money is coming from, and who you will be working with. But the fear of the NO stops many people from following up.
I like to think of it like this: when you follow up, you’ve got a 50/50 chance of a YES! But if you do not follow up, you have a 100% chance of a NO!
Even worse: it wasn’t the person you pitched to that said NO: it was YOU who said NO to yourself when you didn’t follow up!
This week’s guest on Success Unfiltered, Lindsay Cook, powered through the endless persistence of follow up as she created the FitOn App. When working with fitness influencers to help grow the workouts they had available on the app, she had to follow up endlessly - and the results have paid off!
