A sales script is a pre-written set of talking points that a salesperson can use to guide a conversation with a potential customer. It is designed to help the salesperson stay on track, overcome objections, and ultimately close the sale. It is particularly useful for new or inexperienced salespeople, as it provides a structure for the conversation and can help them to feel more confident and prepared.

Confidence is important during a sales call because it can help to establish trust and credibility with the potential customer. When a salesperson is confident, they are more likely to speak clearly and persuasively, which can help to build rapport with the customer. Additionally, a confident salesperson is more likely to be able to handle objections and overcome any objections that the customer may have. Overall, confidence is an important factor in the success of a sales call, as it can help to increase the chances of closing the sale.

Now you may be wondering how to generate confidence especially if you are a new Company or unveiling a new product that doesn’t have tons of reviews or examples yet.

Generating rapport with potential clients is an important aspect of any sales or customer service role, and it can be especially challenging when you’re a new company. However, by following a few simple strategies, you can establish a connection with your potential client and build trust and credibility.

  1. Be prepared. Before you make the call, do your research and learn as much as you can about the potential client and their business. This will help you tailor your approach and speak to their specific needs and concerns.
  2. Start with a warm greeting. When you make the call, begin with a friendly and professional greeting that puts the potential client at ease. You can use their name if you know it and make sure to introduce yourself and your company clearly.
  3. Listen actively. One of the best ways to build rapport is to show that you are genuinely interested in the potential client’s needs and concerns. Ask open-ended questions and actively listen to their responses. This will demonstrate that you value their input and are committed to finding a solution that meets their needs.
  4. Show empathy. Showing empathy is a powerful way to build rapport and establish trust. If the potential client expresses frustration or concern, acknowledge their feelings and offer a solution. This will show that you understand their situation and are committed to helping them.
  5. Be honest and transparent. Building rapport is about building trust, and honesty and transparency are key to this. Be upfront about your company’s strengths and weaknesses, and be honest about what you can and cannot do. This will help the potential client understand your capabilities and build trust in your ability to deliver on your promises.
  6. Follow up. Finally, don’t forget to follow up with the potential client after the call. This will show that you are committed to building a relationship and are willing to go the extra mile to meet their needs.

By following these strategies, you can establish a connection with potential clients and build trust and credibility, even if you’re a new company. With time and practice, you will be able to build rapport with ease and close more deals.

 

 

Because here at WKU Consulting we understand how much hard work and effort you put into both your business and your product we wrote you a working sales script for people that have a hard time at first seeing your hard work and how it may be profitable to them. Remember confidence is key. If you are not confident about your product…how will you expect anyone else to be?

 

Here’s a sales call script for a client who is unwilling to pay what you think your product is worth:

You: Hello, [Client Name], my name is [Your Name], and I am calling from [Company Name]. How are you today?

Client: I’m fine, thank you.

You: Great, I wanted to follow up with you regarding the product we discussed, [Product Name]. I know we previously discussed the price, but I wanted to touch base with you to see if there’s anything we can do to make it more affordable for you.

Client: Yes, the price is still a concern for us. It’s just too expensive.

You: I understand that cost is a significant factor in any purchasing decision, and I want to ensure that you’re getting the best value for your money. Can you tell me a bit more about your budget and what you’re looking for in a product like this?

Client: Well, we’re a small business and our budget is limited. We need a product that’s high-quality, but also affordable.

You: I see. Well, let me tell you a bit more about [Product Name]. This product is made from the highest-quality materials and is built to last. It’s designed to increase efficiency and productivity for your business, which will ultimately save you money in the long run.

We also offer a flexible payment plan and guarantee the quality of our products. Can you share with me what you’re currently using and what would be the most valuable benefits this product would bring to your business?

Client: I see what you mean, but we still can’t justify spending that much on this product.

You: I understand, but may I ask if we could come to a compromise. Are there any specific features or services that you’re not interested in? We could offer you a package with a lower price by removing those features, but still providing the core benefits that are important to you.

Client: That’s an idea, let me think about it.

You: Of course, take your time, and I’d be happy to answer any additional questions you might have or provide more information about our product. I’ll be following up with you in a few days, is that okay?

Client: Sure, thank you for your time.

You: My pleasure, thank you for considering our product. I look forward to speaking with you soon. Have a great day.

It’s important to remember that the goal of the call is not to close the sale right away but to understand the client’s concerns and needs, and to try to find a solution that works for both parties. Flexibility and willingness to find a solution will show the client that you value their business and want to establish a lasting relationship with them.
