Why Your Prospects Ghost Your Sales Team

They're Not Ignoring Your Product, They're Ignoring You

Sales isn't about brochures and features anymore.

When we talk to successful reps, they all share one insight: prospects need to feel heard before they'll listen.

Think about your last big purchase - did you buy because of a spec sheet, or because someone really understood what you were trying to achieve?

Your Current LinkedIn Research Isn't Working

Let's be honest - we've all gotten those messages: "Hey [name], I noticed you work at [company]..." Delete.

Your prospects deserve better than spam.

Real connection happens when you show you understand their daily challenges, the pressures they face, and what keeps them up at night.

Your CRM holds gold - it shows you what content they read, when they open your emails, and what problems they're trying to solve. Leverage this information and do not neglect personalization.

The Costly Mistake Most Sales Reps Make

Not everyone thinks the same way. Your outreach might fail because you're using the same approach for everyone. Consider how different buyers think:

  • Some want hard numbers and clear ROI
  • Others need to trust you first
  • Tech folks want deep product knowledge
  • Team players need to build consensus

Talk to them in their style, and watch what happens.

A Simple Technique That Gets More Prospects to Show Up

The best sales conversations flow naturally because they start with a story that hits home. Here's what you can start with:

  1. "I was talking to someone who faced the same problem..."
  2. "They weren't sure about..."
  3. "Here's what we figured out..."
  4. "Six months later..."
  5. "Does that sound familiar?"

Smart Ways to Keep Prospects Interested

Sales today needs both heart and smarts:

  • Pay attention to when prospects engage most
  • Notice which topics spark their interest
  • Change your approach based on their feedback
  • Have real conversations, not sales scripts
