Well well well… Day 3 is in the books – are you guys ready for another fantastic rendition of the Blox-Off? With a mix of returning Bloxers and fresh faces, this challenge is anything but easy – because today’s test is a killer pop quiz.
As the rankings roll in and the leaderboard tightens. With only two days left, the stakes have never been higher.
The episode charges into Day 4 with a lesson on lead nurturing, followed by a daily challenge that will put their customer engagement skills to the ultimate test. Can they prove they know how to nurture leads like pros? Time to find out!
Lead nurturing is all about developing relationships with potential buyers at every stage of the sales funnel. By listening to their needs and delivering the right information at the right time, you can guide them smoothly through the buyer’s journey.
Lead generation grabs attention and collects customer information, like email addresses and phone numbers. Lead nurturing takes it a step further—educating and engaging prospects so they’re more likely to convert. Both are essential, but they serve different purposes.
Leads are flight risks! Just like you wouldn’t overwhelm a stray dog with too much too soon, avoid dumping too much information on your leads at once. Drip educational assets gradually to build trust and keep them engaged.
With 74% of people preferring to receive commercial messages via email, it remains the most cost-effective, scalable, and reliable way to stay top-of-mind. A well-structured email campaign can build rapport and drive conversions.
Text marketing is just as scalable and automated as email, but with significantly higher open rates. Businesses that incorporate SMS into their nurturing strategy can increase engagement and response rates dramatically.
