NEW COURSE : Domino Effect - Contact
No matter what you do as a business, at some point you need to pick up the telephone and talk to new people about your products and services if you want to grow your business.
It’s easy to hide behind emails and text messages, there is no substitute to picking up the phone and having a conversation. After all, we are human, not robots. People buy people.
Whether you’ve identified a key new prospect, or already had contact and emailed across a proposal or a quote, your chance of success will be much, much better if you are brave and pick up the phone to find out what they think of it, rather than sending email after email after email…can you see yourself in this pattern?
The telephone is a highly effective marketing tool – it can produce incredible results in your business. Yet so many businesses don’t use it to its full potential. It’s the fastest way to reach someone.
Don’t worry – we understand. You feel uncomfortable making those calls. You’re not a natural cold caller.
We are not going to ask you to cold call. We’re not looking at forcing anyone to buy something they don’t want. In fact, we’re not looking to talk to anyone about buying anything. It’s like taking someone on a date – you don’t offer them your hand in marriage within the first 10 minutes! You take the time to find out about them. Give them chance to find out more about you. Decide if you like each other and see where it leads. No pushing, no forcing – just gentle relationship building over the telephone.
This workshop is NOT about teaching you to act out of character and use gimmicks, phrases, scripts or forceful closing techniques. That’s what gives the telemarketing industry a bad reputation and stops us from doing it.
Instead, we help you re-frame how you use the telephone in business. You will understand how the telephone really is a great marketing tool and not the torture device you’ve imagined it to be. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have put it all into perspective to help you scare your fears away.
The reality is that there are so many benefits of picking up the phone and talking to someone, rather than sending another email, for example you can:
It’s not about rushing a relationship. It’s not necessarily about getting an appointment through one call – that is highly unlikely. It’s about talking to people. Softly softly. Taking baby steps to get them interested and win their trust.
You may get some quick wins. Or you may make some new acquaintances who in turn become good customers or referrers over time… They’re all steps in the right direction and won’t happen if you hadn’t picked up the phone.
This workshop will give you the confidence and motivation to make every contact count! And you will no longer be afraid to pick up the phone and get in touch.
We’ll talk about everything you need to do BEFORE you pick up the phone. Then, when you’re ready, we’ll help you through it. Start a conversation with someone you don’t know well. Finish the conversation with a new acquaintance who has the potential to become a new customer…
By the end of the day, you’ll wonder what you were so scared about!
We’ll teach you how you can use the telephone to confidently:
In our interactive half-day workshop, we’re here to help you make every conversation count. You will become part of the Domino family. We’ll demonstrate successful techniques for you to comfortably adopt. We’ll ask you to give it a try – we’ll go first! All in the safety of the training room, amongst other business people who came sharing the same fear of making calls and conquer taming the telephone together.
