Description
Business and telephone calls go together like salt and pepper. When you use the telephone you are at the disadvantage of not being able to see your customer. There are verbal skills and strategies you can use to turn the telephone into a selling advantage. Tuning in to key words will indicate buying style and presentation preferences. You want to know how to "read" your customer with those key words.
Your use of both incoming and outgoing voice mail affects the success you have with people returning calls. The telephone is a tool that casts a wide affect on the sales process from getting appointments, to further needs assessment, and even asking your customer to buy. Once you shift to just one of these actions, you'll find yourself better in charge of your telephone time.
