Tip Of The Week : Don't Ask For Email if You're Not Going To Answer It!

Don't Ask For Email if You're Not Going To Answer It!

Has this ever happened to you? You visit a website, you click the "Contact Me" link and send in your inquiry, only to never get a reply? Have you ever then after a few days or weeks called them and gotten the "Oh I never check that" remark?

How'd that make you feel? Like maybe they didn't care? Or that they weren't really professional?

Why would you purposefully ignore contact from someone who is interested in putting cash into your pocket?

If you aren't going to read it, stop asking for it. All you do is hurt your business.
Take your email address off, and put up a phone number and ask them to call you instead. Don't ask for it and leave them in limbo wondering what's going on.
