Countering the ‘Call Me After the Holidays’ Objection
Next, you send the prospect another handwritten note a week before the “appointment” as a reminder: “Just a quick note to remind you that we are talking on the third. I will give you a call just before 10 a.m. I’m looking forward to speaking with you!”
It is unlikely the prospect will even remembers speaking to you in the first place, but he/she will be apt to keep this “appointment” out of sheer obligation, especially since you are reminding him/her of it. Is it foolproof? Hardly! But if the alternative is endless voice mail messages (and it is), I’ll take my chances!
