Not All Sales People Like Making Appointment Calls

I know many sales people that hated making sales appointment calls until they got professional training.

Some time ago I was asked to do a project with a field sales team in a service industry to try and increase the number of prospects they met with each month.

The majority of the team were great at selling face to face with a prospect. They were confident because of their good product knowledge, and they were successful at closing sales.

When it came to making sales appointment calls, to arrange meetings with prospects, all that confidence drained away. Some didn’t like it, some hated it, and others did their best to avoid it.

Cold calling prospects requires a different set of sales skills and if the project was going to be successful I needed a quick and easy way for the team to learn the basics of appointment calling. I also needed a way of instilling confidence into them while they were making the calls.

That’s when I developed the Free Sales Appointments Training.


The Basics of Making Effective Sales Appointment Calls

To help the field sales team become effective and confident on the phone I developed a sales appointment course with a focus on 3 essential elements.

  • The Introduction
  • The Qualifying Questions
  • Gaining Agreement to an Appointment


Using the exercises that you will see when you open the free training course, the field sales team quickly built an appointment call script for both cold calls and follow ups for warm leads.

They created an introduction that they could use with confidence because they saw how it included potential benefits and really good reasons why they were calling.

When they thought about why they needed to ask qualifying questions it soon became apparent that this was something they had not understood before. They used them face to face when selling, but the questioning stage is different on the phone.

As field sales professionals they saw gaining agreement to an appointment as the equivalent of closing a sale. It isn’t, and there are sales techniques that work much better than traditional sales closes to get the prospect to agree to meet with you.

You can see these appointment agreement techniques, and how to use the other stages of a call, by opening the Free Sales Appointments Training.


The free sales appointment training course is only available from the website www.provensalestraining.com
