Why is follow-up more important than lead generation?

Most leads convert after 8-12 touches over months. Focusing only on new leads wastes money because existing leads never get nurtured to conversion.

What is the best follow-up strategy?

Combine automated email/text sequences with periodic personal calls. Automate the first 14 days, then transition to long-term nurture.

Within 5 minutes. Speed-to-lead is the biggest factor, with response times over 30 minutes dropping conversion by 80%.

At least 12-15 times in the first 30 days, then monthly for up to 18 months. Most agents give up after 2-3 attempts.
