059 – How to Follow Up with a Manufacturer


Listen Later

How do you follow up with a manufacturer (and have a better chance of a response)?

I get contacted by people all the time who say that manufacturers have not got back to them. When I dig a little deeper it is usually because the email that they've sent is unclear or tells their life history. My tips for that follow-up email are:

- Follow up promptly

- Let the know how you discovered them

- Keep your communication short and to the point

- Give one clear call to action 

- Go and visit them!

This episode will be particularly useful for anyone who wants to follow up with someone that they met at an event or trade show.

Thanks for listening to this podcast! If you have found it useful I'd love it if you left me a review in iTunes :)
