对于开发客户而言,电话是很重要却常常被忽视的环节。也许许多业务员一天发几百上千封开发信,却不会打一个电话给客户,对于很多客户,如果可以电话联系上,效果比开发信更好。实在不行,就采用邮件方式或其他即时通讯工具联络。
电话的作用
№1对未合作过的客户进行电话开发【电话开发比邮件开发更容易给客户留下印象】
№2对购买了样品的客户进行电话回访【不让样品石沉大海】
№3对回复过开发信却没有了后文的客户进行回访【不让前期邮件沟通的努力白费】
电话开发的前提
№1 口语要练好
至少要到能让客户一听就懂你在说什么。平时练好发音、提高口语流畅度、打电话前先做好充的准备。
№2 准备工作
设计好电话话术,预想客户可能会提到哪些问题并事先想好这些问题的答案,以免电话中慌乱地去组织语言。
