The script
You: Hi, this is [Your Name] from [Your Company]. How are you today?
Prospect: I'm doing well, thanks. What can I help you with?
You: I'm reaching out because we've been helping homeowners in your area reduce their energy costs with solar energy. May I ask if you've ever considered solar for your home?
Prospect: I haven't really thought about it.
You: Thatβs understandable! Many people are surprised by how affordable it can be. Can I ask what your current energy bills look like?
Prospect: Theyβre pretty high, around $200 a month.
You: I see. With our solar solutions, many homeowners save 20-50% on their energy bills. Would you be interested in a free consultation to see how much you could potentially save?
Prospect: Iβm not sure, I need to think about it.
You: I completely understand. Itβs a big decision. May I ask what specific concerns you have about making the switch to solar?
Prospect: I just donβt know if itβs worth the investment.
You: Thatβs a valid point. We provide financing options that can make the initial costs much more manageable. Plus, many homeowners see a return on investment in just a few years. Would you like to explore these options together?
Prospect: Okay, I guess I can hear more.
You: Great! Letβs schedule a time for a quick consultation. What does your schedule look like this week?
