Everyone’s been there, that awkward moment when you’ve been ghosted. It’s unprofessional, but it’s inevitable. This week we discuss our thoughts on getting no response after one-on-one meetings with new professional peers, and what we can do after the fact. We bring in guest Grace Speese, President of the Farmers Branch Chamber of Commerce, to share her thoughts on receiving no response and how she handles it.
“Sometimes I’ve spent a year, or two years, of following up with people, and sometimes those turn out to be your best clients, your biggest sales… because busy, difficult to get a hold of people are going to respect your perseverance.” – Grace Speese
