Opening
- LeiGood afternoon, this is [your name] from [your company].
- LeiI am calling about [reason for the call]. We have not spoken before, so before I say more: do you agree that I continue this call?
- ConsiglioContinue only after a clear yes. If the customer does not agree or hesitates, thank them, end the call and do not try again for this purpose. Record the refusal. Asking during the call does not replace prior consent where the law requires it: under national rules implementing the EU ePrivacy Directive many countries require prior consent for marketing calls to consumers, and GDPR applies to the number. Check the rules in your client's country.
Reason for the call
- LeiI'm calling because we help companies like yours with [area you help with], and I'd like to check whether it is relevant for you at all.
- ConsiglioObjections often heard in this industry: Trust and risk, Price and budget, Competitor or current supplier, Timing and no time
Discovery questions
- LeiHow do you handle [area] today?
- LeiWhat works well about it, and what would you like to improve?
- LeiWho else is involved when you decide on something like this?
Connect to value
- LeiIf I understood you correctly, [their situation in their words]. In exactly that situation, [product] can help with [one benefit from approved material].
Objection: Trust and risk
- ClienteI don't actually know your company. Who already works with you?
- ConsiglioBetter move: Give concrete evidence, offer something verifiable (a reference or contact), and reduce the risk with a trial or no-commitment option.
- ConsiglioSigns of a good answer: concrete evidence, verifiable proof, risk reversal
- ConsiglioIf the customer pushes harder:
- ClienteEvery vendor promises that. What can I verify myself?
- ConsiglioAvoid: unsupported guarantee, pressure
Next step
- LeiWould it make sense to book 20 minutes on [date option 1] or [date option 2] to look at it in more detail?
Boundaries
- ConsiglioUse only facts, prices and terms from current approved material. If you don't know something, say you will check.
- ConsiglioDon't promise discounts, results or guarantees you are not authorised to give.
- ConsiglioIf the customer says no or asks you to stop calling, respect it and note it.
- ConsiglioIf asked, explain why you are calling and where you got the contact.
