Inbound agency sales process
Establish a need for you.
Set goals for working together.
Present your solution for them.

First, gain trust and permission.

Why am I asking you these in depth questions?
“I want to make sure we are a good fit for each other”
Today we will:
Establish some financial goals for inbound marketing over the next year.
Identify what we have to build on (current results).

Why do we need to establish goals and a
starting point?
“I will build a presentation of recommendations for our next call
that outlines exactly what it will take to reach your goals”
(activity, timeline and costs)
www.contentmarketingblueprint.com
First decide how many customers we need, then calculate your
monthly goals.

Profit margin: 60%
Lifetime value = $183,750

year using inbound marketing,
WHO WOULD BE A PART
of the decision to partner with us?

After the call: Choosing a goal for your
recommendation
1. ($183,750 – 100k)/ 100k = 83% ROI
2. ($367,500 – 100k)/100k = 267% ROI
3. ($551,250 – 100k)/100k = 451% ROI
4. ($735,000 – 100k)/ 100k = 635% ROI
*I know my standard program is 100k with HubSpot
