Digital selling and CRM
Selling with WhatsApp, social media and a CRM.
๐ Key ideas
- Many Indian buyers first contact a business on WhatsApp, Instagram or Google Maps.
- A CRM records each lead, its source, conversations and next follow-up date.
- Response speed matters: an enquiry answered quickly is far more likely to convert.
- Social selling means helpful content and conversations, not spamming messages.
- Customer consent matters: send marketing messages only to people who agreed to receive them.
๐ก Real-life example: Like a notebook every good salesperson used to keep, but shared by the team, searchable and with reminders.
