Shelby's 10 Step Guaranteed Success Telephone Approach

by: Admin on Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2009 Time: 3:30 PM

In all my 12+ years in the corporate world one thing is for sure, you need to be able to leverage your time and be valuable on the phone. Outlined in this article is my 10 step process that with a little planning will make you tens of thousands of dollars.

Be brave, do your homework and be genuine. I invite you to visit my website at http://www.r-m-m.com for other articles, free tele-classes and much, much, more.

Getting Started

1. Get Their Attention –

Demonstrate your abilities with your unique selling proposition. Talk about the benefits of working with you and being your client. Use open ended questions and try to trigger and connect them emotional responses.

2. Qualify Your Prospect –

May I ask you a few questions?

What’s important to you?

What actions are you currently taking to get that result?

Would you use an idea, suggestion or strategy if it made sense to you?

3. Social Proof –

We have been able to (demonstrate benefits) for (dozens, hundreds or thousands) of clients over the last (time frame in this business or industry).

We have worked with your colleague, friend, business associate or family member (_______).

4. Take Away –

We will be able to decide if it makes sense to work together and take this relationship to the next level. I cannot help everyone I meet.

5. The Offer –

I am willing to invest 15-20 minutes discussing ideas and brainstorming with you to see if you will be able to benefit from my products and services.

6. Concession –

I’m only looking to set an appointment to meet with you either in person or a designated time that works for you and your schedule.

I am not going to try to sell you anything.

7. Your Promise –

If I cannot help you save time, make additional money or enhance your situation in a positive way, I will not take any more of your time.

Is that fair?

8. Get Commitment –

Set an appointment at their convenience for 15-20 minutes.

9. Reassure and Reinforce –

You’re going to benefit immensely from what I have to share with you. I really think your going to enjoy the time we spend together.

10. Thank Them –

I thank your for you time and look forward to meeting/talking with you on September 5th at 4:30.
