Hi, this is Thomas, I have an approval that I need to give owner [Owners Name If You Have It]

Can you put me through, THANK YOU!  

[OBJECTION: No, They Aren’t Available]

This is pretty important, I can get his email and I'll try and at least send them an approval request via email.  What's their email?

[OBJECTION: What's This Regarding?]

[Appointment Setter Says.... ] I'm the Associate Designer with [Your Company]

[Salesperson Says.... ] I'm the VP Of Design with [Your Company]

.... and I need to get the owner to grant his approval before we meet our design deadline by the end of the day.

Can you put me through, Thank You!

[OBJECTION: No, I'm Sorry They Are Unavailable] 

What's their direct number or extension I can call back later then? [Get A Direct Number]

What time should I call back that you think they will be available?

[OBJECTION: Can I Take a Message?]

This is pretty important, I can get their email and I'll try and at least send them an approval request via email.  What's their email?

[OBJECTION: What Is This Approval About????]

[Appointment Setter Says.... ] Again, I'm the Associate Designer with [Your Company]

[Sales Person Says.... ]  Again, I’m the VP of Design with [Your Company],

I need to get this approval confirmed so the concept artist can start AND our design team can meet their deadlines. So I need a 15 minute meeting to go over the details because we are planning on creating a new branding design for your company.

[READ ONLY IF OWNER OPTED INTO YOUR FREE COVER LANDING PAGE] I know you're busy, but they contacted us to do this work, and if I can’t get a hold of them I’ll have to cancel the project.

Can you check the owner's schedule [Owner's Name If You Have It] and set the appointment or should I talk to them directly to get things set up?

[SAY THIS IF THEY ARE STILL NOT CONVINCED]

Actually, it’s pretty EXCITING that your company qualified to be in the BETA PROGRAM! Between you and I, to get the concept artists and the design team time to do this usually costs a lot of money, BUT it's all underwritten, and that's’ why I need to get this last approval done to make sure we hit our deadlines.

What’s their direct number and email so I can follow up with them? [TAKE NOTES>>>]

Great, let's set it up for [00:00 am/pm] and what is his email and I’ll send him a confirmation email so he’s prepared for the meeting.  [TAKE NOTES>>>]

What's your name again? ___________   [TAKE NOTES>>>]

Thanks for your help! I've got to run. Bye for now.
