Time can be your greatest asset or your biggest enemy. In sales, it's usually the latter. The longer you wait, the more opportunities you lose. Warming up conversations too much in DMs or emails can hurt conversion rates more than any other mistake. Why? Because you're significantly better in person.
Your goal should be to get prospects on a call as soon as possible. Yet, many salespeople delay this due to fear—fear of rejection, fear of being pushy, or fear of moving too fast. But if you let that hesitation win, you're missing out on conversions.
Instead of getting stuck in endless messaging loops, move prospects to a call where you can build the "know, like, and trust" factor effectively. Not too soon, but soon enough. Focus on getting a commitment rather than waiting for them to respond over multiple messages.
You don’t need to guess when to push for a call—just watch for the right cues. These could be:
Once you spot these cues, act fast. Don’t hesitate. The sooner you get them on a call, the better your chances of closing the deal.
Conversion is an art. It requires understanding human psychology, strong communication skills, and confidence in your offer. But most importantly, it requires action. You can’t sit back and hope for results—you need to make them happen.
