The Sales Convo
If you're a GM, you probably suck at sales.
No more!
Here's my sales tips for chatting with potential clients
1. Ask questions
What is your exp with DnD?
What do you like most about DnD?
What sort of GM are you looking for?
What's your fave DnD memory as a player?
Knowing more about them will help you decide if you can serve them well or not. If not? Tell them & recommend someone else.
2. Be kind but professional
This isn't just a customer service voice, it's establishing your boundaries without being rude. It reflects the reality that you aren't taking shit or interested in wasting anyone's time.
Don't threaten. Don't warn. Tell them how it is at your table.
3. Work for them
Once you've established what the customer wants - tell them how you're going to meet their expectations.
Then deliver.
If you cannot meet their expectations, let them know. Then recommend someone else.
4. Build rapport
You are in the customer service biz AND engaged in a social activity. This is no diff than being a gym or coffee shop owner in how you chat with clients. Care about them, express gratitude for their patronage, and be polite. Help them feel comfy.
5. Ask WHY
When you're learning about people usually to get to the core of the issue you are 2-3 WHYs away from understanding. Keep asking why until you unearth it so you can better serve your customer.
