More than half of the aging families who call you inquiring about services after the holidays will be dysfunctional families. The great majority of calls will come from adult children. If you want to make the sale during the inquiry you have to know how to handle these dysfunctional family members on the phone and give them enough trust in you to sign your contract and give you a deposit for your services.
- Do Be Objective
- Do Use Active Listening
- Do Give them Hope you can solve their family problem
- Do a two-part inquiry and have the problem defined in the first part done by a skilled administrative Assistant?
- Do study the problem before you do the second call and have exactly how you would solve the problem ready in a planned elevator speech
- Do a complimentary 30-minute consultation
- Do not give away the store but outline how you are an expert at solving the problems (moving, keeping at home, Alzheimer’s wandering and a bare outline of your solution
- Do not criticize
- Do not blame,
- Do not take sides if several family members points of view and expressed them
