Stop making this critical mistake on your sales calls! 🚨 If you’re immediately backing down the moment a spouse or family member answers the phone, you are leaving money on the table. Think about it: there is a huge chance that the person answering is the one who filled out the form in the first place! 📝 Next time you encounter this scenario, try being assumptive: 1️⃣ Stay direct: If a female answers for a male lead, address them by the lead's name confidently. 2️⃣ Pivot immediately: State exactly why you're calling and reference the specific details they provided (like their date of birth). 3️⃣ Build the connection: Get their name, stay polite, and steer the conversation forward. No fluff, no hesitation. 🛑 💬 How do you handle it when a spouse answers your lead calls?
