The discovery call is a diagnostic conversation, not a sales pitch. Three questions help the prospect articulate the gap between where they are and where they want to be.
The selling happens through their words, not yours.
Question
What It Surfaces
1. Current Situation
"Tell me where things stand now." Reveals the starting point in their own words.
2. Desired Outcome
"Where do you want to be in 90 days?" Defines the result your offer delivers.
3. The Gap
"What has stopped you so far?" Reveals the exact objections to address in your close.
When you ask these three questions and genuinely listen, the prospect talks themselves into the work. Your job is to reflect their gap back to them and show that your system is the bridge across it.
