Get ready to convert. In this blog category, we explore the challenges faced by cataract and refractive practices when trying to convert leads, and how to overcome them.

Creating a successful sales funnel costs money. Those leads are precious. Here we show you how to make the most of the money you spend by reducing the number of people that call your practice and walk away without becoming first appointments.

FAQ: My team don’t consider themselves salespeople. Is that going to be a problem?

By |Converting Leads|

The word “sales” has earned itself somewhat of a bad reputation over the years but this is usually due to a misconception about what good salespeople do. The big secret here is that we’re mainly teaching people how to connect emotionally with other people – some people have decided to call that “sales”, but it’s mainly better communication aimed at a goal.

FAQ: How much time to make the most out of sales training?
