On today's episode of Let's Talk Dog Business, find out how you are potentially losing £1000s in your business. Jo & Vicky have put this particular podcast together to help the people who have contacted them recently saying that they struggle when someone rings them to enquire about booking their services.

If you want to know how to convert those phone enquiries into bookings, this is the episode for you. Jo & Vicky explain how not to be too salesy, which puts people off, while still sharing how you can help them. This episode includes invaluable phrases and questions you can adapt and use during your calls.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Without sales you cannot stay in business and help people.
• Handle enquiries as a conversation rather than a sales call.
• Set out the expectation of the call at the start.
• Quickly establish what your potential customer needs. What is their pain point? The problem they are trying to solve.
• Find out how long the problem has gone on.
• Establish how invested they are in solving the issue. 
• Look at the call as a match call, a discovery call.
• If you are not a good fit, don´t be afraid to turn the client away.
• Be confident about what you have to offer.
• When trying to turn an enquiry into a sale, it is important to demonstrate that you offer value without over-giving.
