7-Second Thoughts August 12, 2024

How much can you give

Is based on how much your prospect can receive

How much they can retain

And the feeling you want them to have 

At the end of the call.

Consider starting with time:

If you schedule your initial call for a half hour

And do your level best

To end the call 5 minutes early

You’ve got about 5 minutes* to offer them something of value

So …

Following the 80/20 rule of

They talk 80% of the time, you talk 20%

What can you give in 5 minutes

Of you talking

That will allow your prospect to:

Retain the information

Ask questions

Have you answer them

And for you to ask

If they’d like to schedule

The next call.

I’m here,

Kevin

*Any more than 5 minutes and your prospect, no matter how generous and valuable the content, tends to remember your time together as stressful and is less likely to want to meet again.
