04 | CONVERSATION DESIGN
A simple structure for a stronger call
1. Open with context 2. Ask, then listen
Introduce yourself and explain why the call may be relevant. Use open questions; avoid turning discovery into an 
interrogation.
3. Connect to a need 4. Agree on a next step
Share only the information that fits what the prospect said. Confirm a meeting, resource, follow-up date or a polite close.
Respect contact preferences and the prospect’s time. A clear, courteous close is better than pressure.
