Discovery call: what does it mean?

A short, free first conversation with a prospect. The aim is to understand their situation, not to sell. If it fits, the offer comes at the end.

How to get started

  1. Prepare 4–5 questions about where the client is now, what they want to achieve and what is in the way.
  2. Let them do most of the talking. You ask, and take notes in their words.
  3. At the end, sum up what you heard and say whether you can help. If you can, suggest the next step; if not, point them elsewhere.
