How To Build A Cold Calling Script (Step-By-Step)

How To Build A Cold Calling ScriptHaving a script in cold calling is so important because we so often the salespeople want to feel like they don't need to follow a script. I'm just going to figure it out as I go. And what happens is we go all over the place, and we're so much less effective.It's so important now you may think of it more as a template or more as a structure.

That doesn't mean that the whole thing is scripted out.  I know exactly what that script sounds like. What the questions are going to be; what those points of personalization are going to look like so that way when I get the prospect on the phone, I'm so much stronger because I know exactly what I'm going to say. If they say something that I didn't expect I'm not going to be thrown off because I've got a contingency for that as well having that whole call scripted out is going to make us so.Number three pattern interrupt constantly.
