The 30-Second Script

Many salespeople make several big mistakes that can be easily corrected.
1. They donā€™t decide who to call until theyā€™re actually making their calls.
2. They arenā€™t clear on the purpose of their call.
3. They donā€™t use a script. They have not practiced it or rehearsed it. Therefore, they are unprepared and unable to be clear, concise, and to the point.
It follows then that in order to make a significant difference in your success ratio on the phone, (the number of contacts that result in actual appointments) you need to do three things:
1. Prepare a list in advance of contacts to call.
2. Be clear on the sole purpose of your call (to make an appointment).
3. Prepare, practice, and rehearse a script that also includes prepared responses to your most common objections.
The first two things above must be done at another time. However, the third, the preparation of the script, you must do right now. Remember the primary benefits of a script?
1. It allows you to control the conversation
2. It allows you to speak on the phone without having to think of what you are going to say.

PHONE PROSPECTING SCRIPT

On this page you will find the structural skeleton for your script. As you prepare it, visualize yourself talking to the prospect on the telephone.
1. Introduce yourself and your company:
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) ā€
2. Repeating the prospectā€™s name, give the reason for your call and one benefit to the prospect for seeing you.
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) Iā€™m calling because ā€
3. Repeat the prospectā€™s name and ask a ā€œyesā€ question:
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) ?ā€
If the prospect says ā€œno,ā€ say:
ā€œThank you very much, (Prospectā€™s Name) . Have a good day.ā€ Hang up.
4. With a ā€œyesā€ response, show Enthusiasm and ask for a specific appointment (day and time):

5. Plan your quick wrap up of your call: ā€œThank you, Prospectā€™s Name), I look forward to talking with you on (date) at (time).ā€
(This is the time to confirm the date and time of your appointment. Avoid calling the day of the appointment to confirm, giving your prospect an opportunity to say, ā€œGlad you calledā€¦! just canā€™t make itā€¦ā€).

OBJECTION TURNAROUNDS

Remember, the best way to handle an objection is Repeat, Reassure, and Resume.
1. Repeat the objection.
2. Reassure the prospect that itā€™s OK to feel that way.
3. The resume.
Now write the three most common objections you hear below. Then, write your planned turnaround below to each of the objections.
Objection #1:
Turnaround:
1. Repeat & Respond
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) ā€
2. Resume
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) , can we get together next_____at ?ā€
Objections #2:
Turnaround:
1. Repeat & Respond
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) ā€
2. Resume
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) , can we get together next_____at ?ā€
Objection #3:
Turnaround:
1. Repeat & Respond
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) ā€
2. Resume
ā€œ (Prospectā€™s Name) , can we get together next_____at ?ā€
Congratulations! Youā€™re now prepared for your phone prospecting!
You will find it very helpful to retype this script, using all capital letters and double spacing. Try to include everything on one sheet of paper. If it doesnā€™t completely fit with the...
