Prospect: No, I haven't. You: I understand! It’s actually designed to [explain how it addresses their pain points]. Would you be interested in a brief demo? Prospect: Maybe, but I’m not sure.

FAQ

How do I know when to use this script?

Use this script primarily during follow-up calls with existing customers. It's ideal after they’ve had some experience with your product, allowing you to gauge their satisfaction and introduce additional offerings that could enhance their experience.

What if the prospect is not receptive?
