You can still hit end of year targets – but only with the right strategies
Big customers take time to come on board. If you want more sales by the end of the year, it’s time to work with smaller and existing customers. Here are three strategies to help you win more sales at this time of year:
Consider an end of year incentive
This doesn’t have to be about lowering prices. Can you give a personal thank you such as a gift card if orders are laced before a certain date? Or can you add an upsell that is relevant to a customer?
Get customers to think about 2026
Some customers may be organized and have placed their December work already. But they may also be prepared to start placing some 2026 work early, especially with the right incentive.
Ask for referrals
Your network may know people who are struggling with last-minute projects. Be the one who can help these people out. Some may also become new customers.
Let me know what you think
Try these strategies out and share the result with me. And let me know if there are any other strategies you would add to the list.
