you are calling....205-222-2222
Acme Widgits, Can I help you?
 
Who am I speaking with please?
This is Terri..
 
Hey Terri, this is ______ with e-pages. I was looking for your website. What is your website address? please.
always remember that the "gatekeeper" (the person answering the phone) can be a great friend and helper to you or prevent you eternally from speaking with anybody important. Address them by name and kiss their butt. They are the GATEKEEPER, if they don't like you a lot, they will make your life hell and prevent you from doing anything meaningful with that company. On the other hand, if they sense you care about them, respect them and remember their name (proving that you believe them to be important) they will help you and become an important part of the business relationships you will or can develop with that company.
Treat them with respect and courtesy at ALL TIMES! They are your friend!
 
Our website address is www.acme.com
Thank you. let me verify that.. www.acme.com. Thank's again. Who is in charge of marketing for that website? Try to get a definitive answer (persons name)
 
We don't have a website.
Great! Who is in charge of your marketing? Try to get a definitive answer (persons name)
 
Do you guys use e mail at all?
Yes - Could I get an email address for them? I want to let them know about a statewide internet directory that we are publishing. I can get your business website listed in four issues ( about 400,000 books) for about $12.00 a month. and it's free if we host your website. Who should I be talking to?
SHUT UP AND LISTEN...
 
No- surely, you are interested in getting email set up for the company, should I have one of our technical people give yo a call?
Yes, super... tell me who to get in touch with..
 
No- Would you like me to have a technical person contact you about developing a small website for the company?
 
Terri, thank you so much for your help..bye...
 
You are never going to sell anybody anything on the first phone call. So you are not failing, when you hang up after making 100 phone calls and you haven't sold anything. you are establishing a relationship with a long term business partner.
 
when you actually connect with the right person in a company, rarely if ever will they not be interested in one or more of the services or products that we offer. The key or challenge to you as a sales person for e-pages is helping them understand what we can do for them. If they are not interested, it usually means they don't understand what you are selling...

e-pages.com is an extremely diverse company and you have a number of proucts for sale, that range from 10.00 a month to tens of thousands of dollars for a serious presence developed on the internet.

 

These are just some of the services we offer.
