Secrets of Effective Appointment Making Print

A seminar for new and experienced salespeople who make appointments by phone

Let's face it, cold-calling isn't exactly top of most people's list of favourite activities. Most of us don't like receiving sales calls, and we enjoy making them even less. For some of us however, making cold-calls is an essential method of prospecting for new clients. If you've ever had to spend time generating business by phone, there's a very good chance you've asked yourself one or more of the following questions:

  • “No matter how hard I try, I can never get past the receptionist. What can I do to get through to the decision maker?”

  • “How can I avoid being treated like just another annoying salesperson, and actually get my prospects to listen to what I’m offering?”

  • “What should I say if a prospect interrupts me and asks 'How much?' before I’ve even had a chance to tell them what I can do for them?”

  • “How can I keep myself motivated when I keep getting 'no' after 'no'?”

  • “How can I build rapport with someone in just a couple of minutes on the phone?”

If you've ever asked yourself any of these things, (or heard your employees ask them) then keep reading, because these are exactly the problems I can help you solve. Please take the time to study the contents of this page very carefully.

Start Filling Your Diary With Better Quality Appointments In Less Time, and In Fewer Calls

You're going to read about a training course that can make your life much easier, and make the time you spend on the phone much more productive. This is a training course bursting with ideas and strategies you can put into practice immediately.

“Brilliant training course. Previously I’d found selling quite a hit and miss process, but now I have an easy-to-use sales toolkit that’s perfect for our business. I can’t wait to start using it!”

Mark Hornigold, Commercial Manager, Cadcom Technologies
 

To be honest, a lot of the techniques I recommend in my seminar aren't rocket science - they're just simple, common-sense methods that really work. When you learn some of my methods, you'll probably ask yourself: 'Why didn't I think of that before?'

Don't Believe Everything You Hear

Somehow, somewhere along we've started to believe that cold-calling always takes too much time; that it's difficult, painful and demoralising. And that to be successful in sales we have to pressure or trick our prospects into doing something they really don't want to do.

It's just NOT true.

When you attend this seminar, you'll discover shortcuts that will make life infinitely easier for you and your prospects.

If you've been using the phone as part of your sales activities for some time, you'll leave the course feeling re-energised, armed with new ideas, and old habits corrected.

“Even though I enjoy my job as a recruitment consultant, I always hated having to make cold calls, and would always avoid doing them, or do them last in my task list. And I think my lack of enthusiasm was evident to the people I was calling.

This course taught me a completely different approach, and gave me confidence to really get results from my calls. I actually like doing them now!"

Lynda Mills, PCB Recruitment
 

Who Will Benefit From This Seminar?:

Are you:
  • A telesales consultant booking business-to-business appointments?

  • A field sales executive generating new sales appointments by phone?

  • Responsible for new business development and using the phone to generate new sales leads?

  • A business owner who needs to find new customers, fast?

  • A sales manager keen to learn new ways to motivate and inspire your team?

If you answered 'Yes' to any of these questions, then you will love this seminar. You'll learn loads of simple sales methods you can apply to your own business situation, straight away.

What's Included In The Seminar?

As you move through each stage of the course, you'll create your own, personal, brand new sales script that includes all of the strategies you'll learn on the day. When you leave the course you'll have a state-of-the-art sales script that will help you move your sales to the next level.

You'll learn proven sales methods that really work, that would otherwise take years and hundreds of lost sales to acquire.

You'll also take home an invaluable manual that includes everything we cover during the course, and is packed with additional tips, techniques and strategies to give your sales an immediate boost.

Your lunch and refreshments are included, and you'll have ample time to network with the other delegates on the course.

No Gimmicks. No Cheesy Sales Patter. Just Real-World, Proven Sales Techniques That Actually Work.

So if you're making sales calls for the very first time in your career, or if you're more experienced and want to improve your results, I'm confident I can:

  • Help you identify and eliminate mistakes you might be unknowingly making
     
  • Make you feel more motivated, keen and eager to pick up the phone
     
  • Give you a huge number of short-cuts to sales success

You Won't Be Just Another Delegate Attending a Training Course

Each course is limited to only 12 people, which means you get lots of personal attention.

You'll receive individual coaching and feedback during the day. I'll answer each of your questions, and review the sales script that you'll create during the course. Outside of the course this consulting alone would cost thousands of £££'s.

No Need For You To Worry

By the way, there are NO role-plays on this course - I want to make sure you relax and enjoy your day.

“I’d always dreaded having to make cold calls. I found it tough to keep doing something that took a lot of time and effort for hardly any reward. But I must admit I have a completely different attitude towards cold-calling now I’ve been on David’s course.

My sales results prove this, as I make fewer calls, but get more appointments. And I actually enjoy making the calls now! I’d recommend David’s training to anyone who has to make cold calls.”

Laura Welford, Sales Executive, Fincher Langham Creative
