You’ve worked on growing your network. Posted on social media. Launched an English version of your newsletter or your website. Practiced and refined your pitch: I help X accomplish Y though Z method…

And finally, it’s working, and English-speaking prospects are starting to book sales calls or discovery calls with you.

First things first: Congratulations!

And: How does that feel?

This is for you if you are feeling nervous, stressed, or even anxious at the idea of trying to make a sale in English…

Or if you have already attempted to run sales/discovery calls in English, but are feeling frustrated because you’re not quite sure what to say.

This newsletter covers:

  1. The six steps to guide your potential customer through

  2. Word-for-word scripts you can use for each step

  3. How to avoid getting discouraged and stay motivated

These are the exact tactics that I used to sell high-end, bespoke Private French lessons to Americans and English-speaking Canadians when I started my business.

I know they work not only from a linguistic perspective, but from an anglophone North American cultural perspective as well.
