There are many benefits of coaching with FrontSpin’s Whisper functionality.
Alertness and sharpness: It can be easy to zone out or just go through the motions on a sales call. Through whisper coaching, you are able to reengage and keep the SDR alert and focused on the conversation.
A different perspective: Through coaching, you can suggest a different question flow and reccomend phrases the SDR might not think of.
Extra set of ears: Similar to a conversation, the SDR should be focused on active listening, hearing what the prospects say is the top priority. However, there are several other factors when it comes to their words. As a coach, you can pick up on tone and pace and help direct the conversation in the right direction.
