Schedule the first session on the consult call
If you offer free consultation calls, one of the best ways to increase your conversion rate is to schedule the first session at the end of the call.
It’s important the client doesn’t feel pressured if they’re not ready to commit.
But if the call goes well and they seem like a good fit, then here’s what you can say.
“If you’re ready to move forward, then I’d love to schedule our first session. Do you have your calendar in front of you?”
Then schedule the session.
Finally, don’t sell past the sale. Often people will say things like “you can think about it” or “no pressure.” Once you get a “yes,” get off the phone.
