Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is A. To get an appointment for a second call.

Explanation:

Making an appointment with a client is not easy, it requires a method and many other attitudes. That is why it is difficult to find a good seller. As much as we are in 3.0 there are certain types of customers (b2b) whose access is the traditional 1.0.

Investigate who the decision maker is, call, make an appointment ... and visit it. The traditional techniques of generating momentum prospects cohabit with the current ones on the network. And here, friends sell digital crepes all a hundred, you have nothing to do. When the deal is face to face, requires listening skills, knowing how to be, synthesizing, pleasing, pressing and… closing. And that is not learned in a yellow airport book. It is learned by doing so and with a little method and resistance to frustration and a good organization.
