3 Quick Sales Wins You Can Apply This Week

If you’re a small business owner, sales doesn’t have to feel complicated. Sometimes, small changes can bring big results — and you can start seeing them this week.

Here are three simple, actionable sales wins you can implement right away.

1. Follow Up Within 24 Hours

Most sales are lost not because the customer wasn’t interested — but because no one followed up in time.

• Action: After every meeting or inquiry, send a thank-you email or WhatsApp message within 24 hours.

• Example: “Hi [Name], it was great connecting with you today. Here’s the summary of what we discussed…”

• Why it works: Quick follow-up keeps you fresh in their mind and shows professionalism.

2. Ask One More Question Before Quoting

Quoting too early can lead to underpricing or offering the wrong solution.

• Action: Before you share a price, ask: “What’s your main priority right now — speed, quality, or cost?”

• Example: If they value quality over cost, you can confidently explain why your higher-priced solution is worth it.

• Why it works: This ensures your quote is relevant and increases the chance of a “Yes.”

3. Use a Clear Next Step in Every Conversation

A great sales meeting ends with clarity — not with “I’ll get back to you.”

• Action: Before ending any call, agree on the next step and timeline.

• Example: “Shall we reconnect on Thursday to finalise the proposal?”

• Why it works: This keeps momentum and avoids endless chasing.

Pro Tip

If you implement these three wins consistently, you’ll notice your closing rate improving in just a few weeks.
