Most Sales Don’t Happen on the First Reply — They Happen on the Fifth

It’s one of the most overlooked facts in sales:

80 percent of deals close after the fifth follow-up.

Now ask yourself:
How many times are you actually following up?

Because the truth is, most businesses stop at one reply.
Maybe two if they’re persistent.

But anything beyond that?
Too many drop the ball.

🧨 One Reply Isn’t a Strategy — It’s a Missed Opportunity

Let’s break it down.

  • A customer asks a question.

  • You answer.

  • They go quiet.

  • You move on.

That silence isn’t rejection.
It’s hesitation.
And hesitation needs nurturing, not abandonment.

When you follow up consistently, you stay top of mind.
When you don’t? You get forgotten — even if they liked your product.

🔄 PBrain Never Stops at One Follow-Up

InteractionsAI continues the conversation long after your team gets busy.

It remembers. It reminds. It re-engages.

It checks in with leads who haven’t responded. It follows up with purpose and timing. And it doesn’t just send a nudge — it adds value.

InsightsAI lets you see how many touches it takes to convert.
It helps you refine the cadence, the content, and the timing — so every follow-up is smarter than the last.

🧠 Coach’s Tip

Following up five times isn’t being annoying.
It’s being available.
It’s being committed.

The brands that win don’t just reply.
They persist — politely, consistently, confidently.
