Reception filters sales calls.
Getting past the gatekeeper
Calm tone, short sentences, no justification. Gatekeepers let through what sounds expected.
Direct request
« Hi, {prenom_decideur} please. »
If they ask for the reason
« It's about {sujet_precis}, they'll know. »
If the decision-maker is out
« When is the best time to reach them? I'll call back. »
Plan B
« Do you have their direct line or mobile? It'll save you having to transfer me again. »
Objections and responses
« What is it regarding? »
An organizational question about {sujet}, two minutes is enough.
« Send an email to contact@ »
I will, but those addresses are rarely read. What's their direct address?
