• Always start with fresh lead follow-up and appointment details.

• Then tackle prospecting: older leads are converting more than new ones!

   o    Q4 saw up to 24% of appointments from aged leads.

   o    Dedicate 2+ hours a day to prospecting.

   o    Expect 40–60 calls per appointment in today’s market.
