Discussing with Prospects on Weekends : Is it value added or may piss off the prospect? What about geographic implications? (Middle East work on Sundays)

Would love to have your feedback on this to push it as a strategy within my Prospects


Looking forward to hear from you, folks!

Won't catch me talking to prospects on the weekends lol. Then again, the grand majority of my clients don't work weekends so I doubt they'd want to talk to me either.

I think it depends on the industry. I don't think 9-5 office people will want to chat on Saturday. I work in the medical space, and a lot of doctors would rather chat on sat/sun. A couple weekend sales is often times a difference maker at the end of the month.

How do you all handle a situation where a prospect has a contract approved and is ready for signature, but one of their family members just passed away? Want to be extremely sensitive to the situation...feel there's never a "right" time to reach out and never want to be salesy...
