A good script is imperative to your sales success. But you don't want to sound like a robot reading off a sheet of paper. That’s why you need a framework that allows for a two-way conversation rather than a strict word-for-word program. With a framework, you can engage your prospect in conversation while still controlling the pace and direction of the call. Having a conversation with a prospect is so important that we've developed an 8-step sales process here at ReminderMedia. We’ve used it during millions of calls, and it's something you can implement in your own business with a little guidance and planning.   Be sure to check out the show notes for more in-depth information and added details not included in the episode.
