The Showroom Visit Starts On the Phone

By the time somebody walks in, they have already had a conversation that told them what to expect. Usually a ninety second one.

Answer the Question That Was Asked

A caller asking about availability wants a yes or a no. Redirecting straight into an appointment request before answering costs the appointment.

Give a Real Price Range

Refusing to quote anything on the phone reads as a tactic. A range with the reasons it varies builds enough trust to get the visit.

  • Answer the actual question first
  • Give a range and what moves it
  • Say what to bring
  • Confirm hours and where to park

Write Down What They Said

A caller who repeats their situation to a second person on arrival has already learned something about how the business runs.

Cheap training

Record five calls a week with consent and listen as a team. Most fixes are obvious within one session.
