Let’s talk about scripts

It’s a pretty common question I get

“Alex!! Do you use scripts on sales calls?”

the answer is no- not really

I might have one in front of me

But let’s talk about why I don’t love scripts

[mini thread]
my style of selling is being me

I’m not Jordan Belfort

I’m not Grant Carson’s

I’m me

I follow a framework

But what I’ve found is this 👇🏻
When you use a script

You tend to become a bit more robotic

Prospects can tell when they feel they’re being guided through a sales script

And that’s a huge turn off
But if you’re new to sales- you want to use a script just in case you don’t have everything memorized

But add in your own personal flare

Show your personality

Be real with people

Let the prospect get to really know you
Suddenly- it’s just a human conversation

Not the 6th sales call the prospects been guided through that day

Dramatically increases closing rate

And why? People genuine and real builds a much higher level of trust
So- that is why I don’t use a script, or at least never read off one

But they’re not a bad thing by any means

But just remember to be genuine and show your personality

{How I Close Influencers}

As promised

I’m about to drop a thread on how I contact and message influencers with 100k-1M followers

most people’s bottleneck is in their outreach

Let’s change that

\\thread//
So how do we reach out to high level business owners?

Influencers, agency owners, coaches, etc

Well first off, let’s place ourselves in their shoes

Many of my clients have been verified, 100k ++ followers, etc

They get TONS of DM’s

Every. Single. Day
Would get pretty annoying having 30 people pitch you for a quick “virtual coffee” or whatever every day right?

So we’re NOT going to do that

They’re humans too just like us and we want to make them our friends

*crazy stat*

Closify currently has a 100% success rate

Every single agency owner that has hired from closify

Their rep has already closed a deal

Let’s break down why closify is changing the game

\\thread//
In June I joined Iman Gadzhi’s copy paste agency

everyone in it is doing $10-$100k per month

and they all had 1 of 2 problems
1. They’re VERY mediocre at sales- reading from a script and losing deals each month

2. Their calendar is so packed that they cannot focus on growing the biz

Want to make 50k by end of year? (Super conservative number)

Learn one of these

>> phone sales
>> cold email lead gen
>> email marketing for ecom

These are my three favorite business models and I know tons of people killing it in these spaces
for all of them the principles are the same

>> learn the skill
>> do tons of outreach for 90 days
>> close clients
>> automate and scale

So, where can you learn these skills?

most people suck at cold outreach

people buy from people whom they like and they trust

so if there is no likeliness, and no trust, you will not be booking a sales call and then closing that prospect

Let’s break this down even further

\\THREAD//
I’m in the phone sales space

lots of people just DM influencer “yo bruh you need a closer?”

“How’re you closing your sales calls?”

“I could make you more money by closing your deals if you’ve got 15 min this week to chat about it?”

People get those 100x a day
They will tell you to F off

so here is what you do

first- find your prospect

Second- gather as much info on them as you can, from their profile, maybe google them, etc the more info the better

[Why Phone Sales is One of the Best Business Models]

I used to offer fb ads as a service in the info product niche

Here’s how I’d make money

outbound messaging -> send to my calendar-> sales call -> close -> fulfill service (run ads) -> retain client (weekly reporting etc)
A lot of work after the close

so i stopped offering it

With phone sales, you’re literally inserting yourself at the step where the transaction occurs and getting a commission

no fulfillment after, and you’re doing no work to have the calls booked to your calendar
you just show up, take the 20-45 minute call, and can get commissions ranging from $200 to thousands

For one phone call

Can be done from anywhere, and only requires your phone and internet

[How I Structure Sales Calls]

1. Very quick intro: I don’t waste much time on “small talk”

2. Set the agenda: “alright John, to tee up this call I’m just going to ask you a few questions about yourself to see where you’re at, then, if it sounds like we can help...
“We can discuss what it’d look like moving forward. Sound cool?”

3. Why’d they book the call: “what was your motivation for the call today John?”

4. Background: what do they do? What’s their business? What’s their MRR, what do they price their service at, etc
5. Pain: what is their biggest bottleneck? How long have they been dealing with it? What happens if they get off the call? Does anything change? Keep asking ?’s until clear problem diagnosed
