How many times have you gone to a tradeshow or networking event, gathered a bunch of business cards and simply forgotten to follow up with those valuable connections? Or email a Buyer, never hear back, and forget to reach out again? It happens to all of us.
 
That is, unless we use a CRM.
 
Join me in conversation today with Brandon Leong of RangeMe, the platform dedicated to connecting Wholesale Buyers with producers, as we discuss the importance of having & maintaining a contact list of Buyers & Influencers. In this episode you’ll hear us talk about:
 
  • Why it’s important to maintain a contact list
  • How to organize your contacts as you scale
  • How to keep in contact with your network without feeling salesy or spammy
 
We also discuss a few of our favorite CRMs (both free & paid!), how producers can find success on RangeMe’s platform, and best practices for following up with Wholesale Buyers.
