OOH Sales: Creating Your Recipe for Success
Earlier this year we talked about the value of having a strategic plan for how you are going about managing your OOH book of business or in other words, your account list. Making sure to break down that account list into 4 strategic “buckets” each requiring distinct approaches to maximize growth.
As we are looking to close out a very strong 2025, we’re actively engaging with our OOH clients, and as always guiding them through comprehensive goal-setting exercises to position themselves for success in 2026 and beyond. As sales professionals, understanding our driving force is crucial. What are we aiming to achieve personally? Clarity on meaningful personal goals allows us to chart a course for success – after all, one can’t hit a target they don’t have!
How many sales do I need to make? How many proposals will I need to make? How many initial meetings will I need to conduct? How many prospecting activities will I need to do? What prospecting activities should I be doing? To know that I am going to need to know what my close ratios are from one step in the selling process to the next. Have you tracked your close ratios throughout the sales process? If you are like most, you haven’t. However, there are industry standards and averages that we can at least get started with.
Does this sound complicated? It’s not really. Imagine applying a simplified methodology or system to ensure the realization of your personally significant goals. Would it be worth some additional thought and planning? Remember this…Decide what you want, build a plan, and you can bet on the outcome. It’s like money in the bank. But I don’t know, maybe that’s not important to you…or is it?
