Follow up by phone without nagging or forgetting
Most deals close after the third follow-up; most salespeople stop before. A clear cadence and a tool that reminds solve the problem.
A cadence, not improvisation
D0 call, D+2 callback, D+7 value email, D+15 call, D+30 last message. Adapt to your cycle, but write it down: the cadence is scheduled at pick-up, not from memory.
What to say
Every follow-up brings something: an answer to a question, a customer case, an approaching date. “Just checking in” brings nothing. Write one line about what was said; the next follow-up starts there.
The tool surfaces, the human calls
Overdue follow-ups show first, temperature cools when nothing is planned, the call starts in one click and is logged. The manager sees deals with no next action — and an AI agent can take the first calls.
Frequently asked questions
Email or phone?
Phone converts, email leaves a trace. Alternate; what matters is that a next action always exists.
When to stop?
When the prospect said so, or after the last step of your cadence: mark the deal lost with a reason, it feeds the reports.
