    Machine gun Kelly, I have verified that this script works. Knowing why I’m calling is on everyone’s mind before i even begin talking. Also, asking them a question that they have to answer yes to, works. Thank you! I’m glad I’ve found your channel. I’m low key becoming a fan. I’ve increased sales to my print shop.

He’ll say things like “given [previously discussed value prop] it a ridiculously idea that we meet and discuss this further” or something like that. Any thoughts from your position in the field?

    Great stuff, thanks man. The one thing I don’t love is: “Is increasing revenue or setting more meetings important to your sales reps?”. The reason I say this is because I think it’s kind of condescending. Like obviously this is important to them. That’s their job. Can we maybe say instead: “As the head of sales at xyz company, I know that generating revenue and setting meetings is important for your reps. I’m calling because my company…(insert how our company helps them increase revenue)”? I understand the value of getting them to start saying yes, but I don’t want to do it in a way that makes them look stupid, like having to answer such an obvious question. By the way, I love the part where you say “it sounds like there is alignment…”. Another part I don’t like is by saying “what is your availability to set up a meeting”. I think that is disrespectful to speak to somebody like that and just assume they want a meeting without asking. Can we do this any other way?

    If you run into this, a great way to get to that person is to say “great can you assist with an introduction to that person who makes that decision” or “can you get me connected with the right person” or as Trent has said, you need to find the economic buyer. I recommend reading the new strategic selling book by miller and Heiman. It discuses all of the buying influence that can be within the corporation who is buying and it teaches you great concepts for selling any complicated b2b sales.

    It's interesting that some sales gurus say "how are you" while others absolutely are 100% against it! I was taught not to use and never really did, but then I get another position years later where in the script, it says how's your day going? I think using that line is disingenuous, and it wastes time of the people who are already aggravated that you called them at all! I would use the line when calling a warm lead. Someone who is already a client and I am calling to resell them or sell them some other things after I know they bought from me in the past. I would not do it the very first time I call someone.

    Never ask a client how they're doing on a cold call. That is a waste of their time and your time...A) they know that you don't care how they're doing, and B) you don't care how they're doing. A better approach is...Hi, my name is (your name) and I'm calling with (name of company). I know I just called you out of the blue and your time is valuable so I promise I'll be brief.
