What Is a Sales Script?
A sales script is a prepared guide for a sales conversation — talking points, questions, and responses that keep a call on track. Used well, it supports a rep rather than replacing judgment, much like a template.
What a script is for
A script ensures the important points and questions get covered consistently, so quality doesn't depend on memory or mood.
Flexible, not robotic
The best scripts are frameworks, not word-for-word recitations. Reps adapt to the conversation while hitting the key beats.
Building a good script
Open with relevance, ask qualifying questions, handle common objections, and propose a clear next step.
