What You Can Do

Build conversation-flowing discovery scripts that guide you through prospect qualification while staying natural and conversational. You'll get branching question paths, timing guides, active listening cues, and objection handlers tailored to your sales process—whether you're running 15-minute SDR calls or 60-minute enterprise discovery conversations. The scripts focus on diagnosing pain points and confirming buying intent rather than pitching.

Features

Branching script structures with main questions, follow-ups, and pivot points based on prospect responses
Timing guides that allocate minutes for rapport-building, pain diagnosis, qualification, and objection handling
Active listening cues and mirror statements to build rapport without sounding robotic
Qualification checkpoints built around standard frameworks (BANT, MEDDIC, or custom criteria)
2-3 pre-written objection handlers with reframes and re-engagement paths
Natural transitions between script sections that flow conversationally
Role-specific script variations for SDRs, AEs, account executives, and inside sales teams

Objection Handler Example

  • Prospect: "We've tried something similar before and it didn't work."
