I was having a conversation with one of my business partners tonight, and the topic came up about home based business scripts. We were actually talking about how much of a struggle it is for new business owners to get on track in terms of getting over the anxiety to call their people to promote events, products, or services. My response was that it’s just a natural part of the sales process, and that people should get over it. We discussed various ideas and threw around some new ones to help people overcome the fear, but it all came down to home based business scripts.Without having home based business scripts in front of you to sort of act as a verbal guide, it’s mortifying to so many individuals who start a home based business that they need to pick up the phone and actually talk to people. I know many people who will actually take the time to come up with excuses just so they can get out of a call workshop or calling their people. It’s very sad, because if they only knew how much their friends, family, and acquaintances actually thought of them, then they wouldn’t be so fearful. The truth is, they rarely think of you, so why waste your time fretting over people who don’t even think that much of you?Do you ever wonder why movies have scripts? It’s because it doesn’t ruin the flow of the movie, because it allows the actors and actresses to follow a rubric so they won’t stall and create more “NG” clips. I think people refer to these as bloopers, but you get the picture. Home based business scripts are equally important when it comes to your own success, because if you had to “wing it,” you would probably be stumbling and bumbling and the exchange would be an utter fail with the customer or prospect, because they would soon realize that you have no idea what you are doing.I know that some of you are rolling your eyes, because you think that you are a superstar in the industry, and that you can make any call, without home based business scripts, and you’ll be successful. Well my friend, I can tell you this: superstars only come once in a lifetime. Everyone else learns how to be professional through scripted performance.Any good home based entrepreneur knows that the key to success is through duplication of teachable techniques that everyone can do. Establishing home based business scripts is one of those duplicatable techniques that can trickle through your organization. Flying by the seat of your pants is definitely not considered duplicatable.So what comprises really great home based business scripts? Let’s take a look:1) Good script packages cover almost every occasion possible so your new business partners always have a way to get in a conversation and get out with contact information.2) The script is clear, concise, and easy to follow without any real pre-coaching3) Scripts are made with ever-changing dynamics in mind, such like a decision tree, where different scenarios that are presented are already covered in the tree to guide the prospect through the conversation4) Scripts are so well-written that they don’t really leave any room for interpretation or modification of the wording. 5) Good scripts should have a setup and follow-up system before and after the script content, so the prospect knows how to open, and more importantly, CLOSE!6) Scripts are generally free of foul language or slang, so it removes any angst or ambiguity. 7) Scripts have good use of emotional language and trigger words that the prospects can identify with to create value.During that exchange with one of my business partners at the beginning of this article, I actually came up with some fantastic home based business scripts that are virtually fail-proof and get the job done every time.
