Telephone Techniquest That Work

I'm sure you listened to Tom Paredes' CD series, Telephone Techniques That Work. It's a great way to quickly focus prospects on what they want, and how you can get it for them. This is from one of the out-takes (stuff that didn't get included in the final version). Conversation with an unqualified prospect: Prospect: How much money can I make with your opportunity? Tom Paredes: How much money do you want to earn? Prospect: I want to earn $10,000 a month. Tom Paredes: Have you ever earned $10,000 a month before? Prospect: No. Tom Paredes: Do you know what it takes to earn $10,000 a month? Prospect: No. Tom Paredes: What are you willing to do to earn $10,000 a month? Prospect: Well, I don't want to have to make phone calls, and I can't go to opportunity meetings because I work nights, and I can't afford to mail postcards. Plus, I don't know anybody. I won't go out and meet strangers - that's just not me. My relatives won't talk to me . . . and if I can't earn at least $10,000 a month with your opportunity, well . . . then you just don't have a good plan. End of call.
