Best and Worst - Cold Call Received

video cover

===

Alexa, give me a cold call sales script on selling a pen. Make it rhyme...


Pen in hand, ready to write.

Ink that flows, smooth n bright,

Stylish design, a true delight,

Perfect tool, day or night.



===

Alexa, that was too sales-y. Can you make the cold call script sound more consultative...


With a pen in hand, I'd like to inquire,

What kind of writing do you require,

Something smooth, that never tires,

Or a pen with a flair, for those who aspire?



===

Alexa, that was good. But not the best. Can you give an out-of the box script? Something not used often, but bound to work...


I’m seeking advice, from those in the know.

What’s the best pen, with a stylish flow?

Rollerball? Or Fountain? Is a ballpoint right?

Tell me, pen connoiseur! I seek your insight!!

wait....so you were in favor of the bait and switch??

ive had this happen before when someone reaches out and wants to chat and then when we get on the call they just pitch me.

i was NOT a fan of that.

I think it needs to be more subtle and clever, instead of a “ah! caught you! now you’d have to hear my pitch”.

Yeah, I'd like to know how that went. I had an SDR try that on me, and it fell very flat.
But - I'm not a decision maker for my company, so my role is different than Sahil's in that (important) regard. When someone asks me about my company or for advice, I'm going to take it at face value, and when they immediately pivot to telling me about their solution and why I should consider it, it's a nah, bro. Didn't really do your homework.

Probably would be hard to understand with my accent. It gets thicker when I'm passionate 😆
