Kiosk Studio Session #2 | Boost cold call efficiency with a call script kiosk



Hello!

For sales teams, cold calls are swift, frequent, and repetitive processes.

Often the first touchpoints in many customer journeys, they help sales reps proactively engage with potential customers. When done well, they persuade prospects to set up a meeting or purchase your product or service.

 How do call scripts help your sales reps?

  • A successful cold call requires clear communication of value and handling objections, while being flexible to customer needs.
  • Many organizations use call scripts to meet this requirement while reaping other benefits like ensuring compliance, onboarding new reps faster, optimizing messages that work, and so on.
Every day, BDRs, SDRs, and AEs make many such short calls with the help of their call scripts. After each of these calls, they navigate around the CRM to perform followup actions (send emails, update CRM fields, and so on). These calls serve as the foundation of future engagements with prospects.

Easy with Kiosk


In Zoho CRM, Kiosk Studio can boost the efficiency of your cold calls in the following ways:
  • Integration of call script, CRM data, and data input into a series of screens, so reps can focus on each interaction, not the process or CRM navigation.
  • Easily transition from prep to call to followup by placing the kiosk within easy reach of your reps (within the record detail page or module list page).
  • Automation of post-call actions based on how the rep navigated the call, so that the right followup happens for every single call without taking up your reps' valuable time.
By building a kiosk around the cold call process, sales reps can reach more prospects without sacrificing quality interactions or missing followup actions.
