Taking Initiati Manteo
Taking initiative with your network sample script
So imagine ths...ithas been a harder and more difficult day at work then normal- dealing with difficult clients,
broken equipment, afew employees called in sick and it was end af month, sa everyhady wants ta get paid. Vo,
you finally make it though the day and jump in your car and attempt to start the engine, Grrr Grrr Grr Gr. The car
barely starts. You putt in gear to head home and yournotice the gas tank is dang near empty. You continue your
drive home, you hit a pothole that throws your alignment out of syne. Nonetheless, you continue asthe fist rin of
the season starts drizzling down. You turn on the windshield wipers, and, sure enough, they are in bad shape and
‘do nothing more than smear dirt and bug guts allover the windshield. You it the wiper fluid and i's empty! Just
‘when you think things couldn't get any worse, the damn check engine light comes on! You finally make it home and
pull the car into the garage and heat inside, You walk in and everything is great. Your TV isan with your favorite
‘show or maybe the game ison, dinner ison the table and an ice cold drink is waiting for you next to your Lazy Boy
Chair. Just what you needed. The night ends and you lay your head down on the pillow. Would you say the last
thing on your mind is the car in the garage?
‘Now imagine this, the minute the gerage lights go out, group of mechanics shows up with the skils comparable
toa Nascar pit crew, While you are asleep they are working on your vehicle Besides the obvious of changing the
oil, checking the fluids, brake pads, tire wear and looking for any major damages, they would also fix the things
that happened from the previous deys drive lke realigning the frontend after hitting the pothole, replacing the
Windshield wipers, rfiling the cleaning fluid, not to mention charging that damn battery or replacing it). After
deep cleaning and waxing, the fuel tank would get topped off and your car would once again be running at top
performance. When you wake up inthe morning and stick your key inthe ignition, not only does it pur but now ean
{get you to work safely and reliably. Wouldrit you love a service like that?
Well, we dont do cars. but, that’s exactly what we do to your network every single night. Afterhours, our
automation kicks in. We lock for viruses, update spam software, update any software applications that need it,
Update any security patches to prevent data loss, monitor thresholds for memory, storage and CPU usage and
create a ticket in our system for anything that falis below acceptable. When your 25 employees show up fist thing
inthe morning to work that’s exactly what they are able to do... work!

‘we uncovered for you, Just to be ckar though, are we all good with the proposed solution for supporting your

Prospect: Yes, this looks lke what we want,
‘Salesman: Okay great. How about the new proposed network we engineered for you? Are there any questions on
this, or are we good?
Prospect: We like that, as well
Salesman: Ok, so i's safe to say that we need to think about the monthly investment, which l understand fully and
‘obviously having myself in the room is the conflict. So, might a suggest this? I can step out ofthe room for 20
minutes to give you guys the time to discuss amongst yourselves, or shall we set up another ime to meet again
‘and answer any questions?
Prospect: Let's set up another time!
‘Salesman: No problem, | have next Tuesday open at 3:00pm. | will send you the invite as we speak, unless another
date is better?

“Just one more thing... Now, wouldnt be doing my job i | dirit have a cal to action to help entice you to
‘choose us as your company, now would I? As you can see, the hourly rate you're spending to hire our company is
ridiculous. The amount of excessive spending that is happening is also ridiculous. Infact, the only thing that isnt
ridiculous is the solution and support were proposing to help solve these challenges you're experiencing. So,
if you guys want to authorize this agreement for that low monthly rate then you can each walk outwith the
iPads that are in font of you. With hat being sad, shall step out for 20 minutes to let you guys have a candid
‘conversation in private. Or, shall pick up my iPads, and keep our appointment for next week?
