For Sales Managers

Train your sales team for phone calls, one skill at a time.

Phone sales training works best when everyone knows what they’re working on. Choose a skill, have reps practice it on simulated calls, then review what they said—not who they are.

How it works

  1. 01

    Choose a challenge

    Ask your team which call they dread most, then set an observable goal.

  2. 02

    Debrief the language

    Review a quote with the sales rep and come up with another question to try together.

  3. 03

    Repeat the exercise

    Try a similar scenario again and compare. An assigned exercise with a deadline helps maintain momentum.

Where should you start?

Start with a situation your team faces: a rushed prospect, an unanswered quote, or a price objection. Turn it into a shared scenario using the library or one of your own.

Present the tool as a place where it’s okay to make mistakes. The customer is fictional, and the AI-generated call report is open to discussion.

How do you debrief a simulated call?

The sales rep chooses a moment and explains what they wanted to achieve. You suggest another question, and they try it on a new call. With the Pro plan, you can comment on the moment directly in the call report.

Two colleagues talk over a notebook at a work table.

What cadence works best?

Short, regular calls are easier to fit into the schedule than a half-day training session. Set one exercise per week with a due date, such as two calls practicing a response to a pricing objection. That’s what assignments are for.

For a new hire, start with a cooperative customer, add an objection, then add a time constraint. See onboarding new sales reps.

How should you explain the program to your team?

Explain who can see what. If you choose private feedback, sales managers only see averages. Also explain what the data is for: practice, not compensation decisions.

To track consistency rather than raw scores, look at the number of calls per week and progress across similar exercises.

Practice your next call before you pick up.
