narrowed down from a selection of over 50 to 100 ... "1-liners" that we have in our files for each objection.

"There is a long list of objections we could use .. but we have chosen to limit them to 24 of the

     "Just determine when to: ... TALK ... and when to LISTEN ... and when to SELL then .. pick a heading."
 
                                           "WHY USE A PROSPECTING SCRIPT OF ANY KIND?"
 You can be the best salesperson ... but if words fail you, you're no better off than a salesperson with absolutely no skills.
 
Whenever you're going to make a telephone prospecting call it would be a good idea to think about what you going to say ahead of time
 
When using a prospecting script and sales script, you must find a way to tell them of the benefits they will receive if they do business with you.
 
Recent research on the brain has shown that talking about yourself makes you feel good ... in the brain. About 40% of everyday speech is devoted to telling others about what we feel & what we think.  People were even willing to forego money in order to talk about themselves it seems.
 
Prospecting must include some sort of dicipline to get people to stay on message and talk to a prospect about things that concern them. Prospecting, therefore goes against the brain's chemistry and becomes an unnatural act. 
 
"By using a script of prepared words, ... it forces a salesperson to talk about the things that a prospect is interested in."
 
  •  A prospecting script and sales script can make anyone seem charismatic and sound brilliant!
 
  •  A great communicator, ... with a well written prospecting script can say things that really matter
     in a few well chosen words.  It's far better to have a few well thought out things to say ... rather than
     to ramble on when making prospecting call.
 
 •  Objections that can be anticipated can have a response that can be prepared in advance.
 
 •  Every line of dialogue in a prospecting script and sales script is like giving a one sentence speech.
 
 •  Sales scripts must have a purpose and it must seek a result; usually an appointment. 
 
 •  The objective of a prospecting scripts technique is to make them interesting and easily understood.
 
   Prospecting scripts and sales scripts  are written and designed for the benefit of the listener and it’s
    always “their choice” to accept or reject what they hear.
 
"The scripts are like a "tele-prompter" that pops up when you need to remember
     a valuable line of dialogue when you are on a prospecting call  ... just like president Obama has"
 
It's back to basics when writing a business prospecting script. When prospecting by telephone, words can create “desire” ... and that desire creates the need based on what you say. Desire is a state of mind that will overwhelm nearly anything that gets in its way. There is a slight but significant difference in desiring and wanting something.
 
  Our purpose is to build a foundation of timeless examples of prospecting scripts and that you can use to
    generate new business, generally using telephone prospecting.
 
  Planned is different than canned." You’re probably a pretty good talker to be in sales and get where
    you are. The good get better by constantly finding new ways to improve their telephone technique.
 
  Canned answers or preplanned answers are all the same. A sales script or prospecting script by any other
    name is still a script. No matter what you call it, prepared dialogue is planning for a probable event.
  The salesperson who can pick up the phone and get an appointment, seem to be able to sell anything.
 
                                     "Prospecting scripts are different from sales scripts!" 
 
Telephone prospecting and the actual selling process are two completely different functions. It will be less complicated if you determine if it's a prospecting situation instead of a sales situation and then design a uniquely worded sales script.
 
  •  Sales scripts and prospecting scripts orchestrate the words that you use and removes the discretion in
     favor of well thought out written words. 
 
  •  A sales script and prospecting script forces you to think about your words to say the same things every
     time there is a business development opportunity.  In addition, it's not what you say, "it's how well you say it."
 
   The fast talking slick sales dialogue doesn't work anymore. The other guy exhausts himself looking for naïve
     people but they’re getting harder to find.
 
Another prospecting technique is to compose the words that will cause a business prospect to want to do business with you.
 
                         "Using a prospecting script and sales script means that telephone prospecting need
                                              not be feared and a relationships can be built without anxiety."
 
The words we use give validity to our ideas. Words convey the messages, thoughts, ideas that you want to discuss. They deliver the viewpoints, concepts, and attitudes of all parties to the business transaction. In any business sales profession, it is advantageous to create a unique identity, to be recognized, to stand out and be different.
 
  •  A tool is something that makes a difficult job easy.  Every profession needs the right tools.
 
  •  The fundamental tool of communications are the words of a sales script. 
 
  •  Words are the basic building blocks for every type of communication. In a telephone prospecting call,
    words must be used skillfully to get the appointment that leads to a sale.
 
 •  Prospecting scripts and sales scripts contain words that sell, tell, inform, persuade, and converse.
    Good communication skills is putting into words ... what you are thinking.
 
  •  The quality of the words you use will be the basis for creating an impact upon a potential prospect
when prospecting by telephone.
 
    "A person can be brilliant and highly talented, but if they can’t express themselves they'll never reach their potential."
 
Many consider themselves a poor conversationalist and they get taken advantage of. Often they get tongue-tied and can’t remember what to say.  They consider themselves shy and reserved and they get their feelings wounded. More often they take a backseat to fluent people who are using a prospecting script.
 
 
As the saying goes, “You’ll never get a second chance to make a first impression. People form an impression from what they hear someone say. You won’t have your good looks going for you to make an impression when prospecting by telephone.
 
 
Prospecting scripts get aggrements and get action. If you are proficient and adept with word use you'll get agreements and cause the other person to take action. Communicating information via sales scripts  and prospecting scripts leads to what your prospect considers an informed logical decision to acquire your services willingly.
 
                "In these tough recessionary times of 2012, you must make twice the number of prospecting calls
                                                     and sales calls just to stay in business"
 
If you are skilled at writing business scripts and sales scripts, you don't have to tell lies to get agreements.  
 
 •  Your words don't have to be manipulative.
 
 •  They don't have to use pressure, exaggeration, and make bogus claims.
 
 •  The words of a selling script and prospecting script paint a picture in the mind, which is just as valuable.
 
 A well versed person, especially one who uses a business script and sales script, will get what they want more often then a person who cannot speak well.
 
  •  When you win the hearts and minds of anyone under any circumstances you have created a winner take all  
     situation.
 
  •  Good business scripts and sales scripts will win the hearts and minds of people.
 
                                   "What kind of results would you have achieved during your lifetime ... 
                                 if you had the advantage of a "cheat sheet" with the right things to say?" 
 
Ruffled feathers can be soothed with business scripts and selling scripts that use words that are calming. It’s impossible to know what sets off a prospect when you call them. When that happens, for whatever reason, the right words used at the right time will calm the prospect down and the call can go on.
 
 
When telephone prospecting you can disarm & disable a prospect with what you say. You don't have to get mad and lash out, you can "verbally outmaneuver" an angry potential prospect when using a sales script and prospecting script.
