\"largecombining new sales with upsells is a more reliable strategy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cgrow your practice without having to add any new clients!\u201d<\/p>\n

i seriously gasped when i saw this headline recently. i thought to myself, \u201creally? what kind of advice is this?!\u201d i had to read this story to find out just what the author was suggesting and how this could be a good long-term strategy for anyone.<\/p>\n

as i read through the article, i was secretly hoping to learn some magic bullet or new idea that would make growth easier on so many people who do not like sales. however, as i continued to read, i became more and more anxious about the strategy that was suggested.

\ndon\u2019t get me wrong, the author was telling a true story about how he grew his practice by over 70 percent without ever signing a new client. i\u2019m not discrediting the story and actually commend him for working so hard to produce that type of growth. that is no easy task. my concern is that this strategy will not work for long-term, consistent growth and i would hate for anyone to have false hope in this strategy.<\/p>\n

those with any experience in sales will tell you that it is impossible to hit a sales goal upselling current customers alone. you have to add new business in addition to upselling to have long term growth. what does this mean to someone without experience in sales?<\/p>\n
