PatrickIs one of the biggest struggles in your business getting new meetings weekly and finding high-quality leads for your business?
There is an app called Owwll that solves that problem.
It allows you access to other professionals instantly. Experts charge a fee to do 1:1 calls and access them, and when used right you can open up endless opportunities for your business.
Here are the steps to make the most of the platform.
1. Complete Your Profile for Maximum Impact
- Why this matters: Your profile is your first impression on Owwll. A complete and compelling profile increases your chances of being contacted and builds trust before you ever speak to someone.
- Write a clear, benefit-driven bio: The first line of your bio is crucial because it shows up in the app's search and on your profile preview. Focus on what you can help people with. For example: “I help entrepreneurs scale their businesses using effective digital strategies,” followed by your credentials.
- Include all links to your online presence: Add links to your website, social media, and any landing pages that showcase your work or lead to free resources. Ensure everything is up to date.
- Use a professional profile picture: This helps build trust and credibility. Make sure your picture is high-quality and reflects your professional brand.
Steps to take:
Tip: Write your bio as if someone will only see the first 10 words. These are what entice people to click and connect with you.
2. Schedule Regular Outreach Time
- Why this matters: Consistency is key to successful lead generation. Setting specific times for outreach helps you stay on track and increases your chances of connecting with valuable leads.
- Set a schedule: Dedicate 30 minutes, three times a week (for example, Monday, Wednesday, Friday), specifically for outreach calls on Owwll. Put this in your calendar.
- Start with lower-cost calls to build reviews: Initially focus on people charging $1 for 10-minute calls. This helps you build positive reviews and gain momentum on the platform.
- Keep the time structured: Limit your calls to 10 minutes each. This will help you connect with more people and avoid overextending any one conversation.
Steps to take:
Tip: Leverage the app feature of your calls being timed. Remember, quality conversations are better than long ones.
3. Build Rapport Quickly During Calls
- Why this matters: People are more likely to engage with you or follow up if they feel a genuine connection. Asking thoughtful questions shows interest and creates opportunities for future collaboration.
- Open with an introduction: Start by briefly introducing yourself and expressing excitement to connect.
- Ask open-ended questions: The goal is to get them talking about themselves. Here are some questions to guide the conversation:
- "What got you into the work you're doing?"
- "What’s the most rewarding part of your business?"
- "How do you help people achieve their goals?"
- "What challenges are you currently facing in your business?"
- "Who are your ideal clients, and what type of work do you enjoy most?"
- "What has been your biggest win this year?"
- "Where do you see your business heading in the next 6 months?"
- Listen actively: Make sure to genuinely listen and ask follow-up questions based on what they share. Avoid talking too much about yourself at first.
Steps to take:
Tip: Taking notes during the call will help you stay engaged and allow you to recall important details for follow-up.
4. Provide Value by Offering Next Steps
- Why this matters: The best relationships are built on mutual benefit. Offering something valuable at the end of the call strengthens the connection and positions you as a helpful resource.
- Ask for their contact information: Toward the end of the call, ask for their email or LinkedIn profile so you can stay in touch. Owwll also displays social links on their profile so if you don’t get the information directly from them, immediately follow up on a social platform after the call.
- Offer a freebie or invite them to an event: Give them something helpful, such as:
- An invitation to a free webinar, mastermind, or networking event.
- A valuable freebie (e.g., a guide, template, checklist) that solves a problem they mentioned.
- Offer a free 30-minute consultation or strategy call to explore how you can assist them further.
Steps to take:
Tip: Frame the invitation or offer in a way that aligns with the goals or challenges they shared during the conversation.
5. Document Key Takeaways for Future Reference
- Why this matters: Keeping track of your conversations ensures that you’re not just connecting, but also building relationships. Having notes will help you personalize your follow-up and create a long-term connection.
- Write down key points immediately after each call: Include what they do, why they do it, what challenges they face, and any next steps discussed.
- Store your notes in a Notion database: Create a simple Notion database to store each person's contact information and notes from the call. For example, fields could include:
- Name
- Email/Contact Info
- Notes from the call
- Date of the conversation
- Any next steps (such as follow-up or event invites)
Steps to take:
Tip: You can tag each person by category or industry, making it easier to sort and follow up in the future.
6. Follow Up for Long-Term Engagement
- Why this matters: Most successful connections don’t come from the first interaction. Consistent, value-driven follow-up can turn a casual conversation into a lasting business relationship.
- Set aside follow-up time: Each week, dedicate 30 minutes to following up with the people you spoke with the previous week.
- Reference your notes: When reaching out, mention something specific from your call to show you were paying attention (e.g., "I remember you mentioned struggling with X; here’s a resource that might help").
- Offer additional value: Provide an additional free resource, a follow-up conversation, or an invitation to an event. This keeps the conversation going and builds more rapport.
Steps to take:
Tip: Make it easy for them to respond. Include a direct link to your calendar or the next step they need to take.
By following these steps, you’ll build strong, genuine connections that will serve as the foundation for long-term relationships and high-quality lead generation through Owwll.
