Sample Answer
On one campaign, my sales conversion dipped from around 19% to about 12% over two weeks, and my QA scores slipped from 94% to 88%. That was unusual for me, so I pulled my last 20 recorded calls and sat with my supervisor to review them. We noticed I was over-explaining features and letting calls run long, which meant fewer calls per hour and a weaker close. I built a shorter version of my pitch, went back to 2–3 core benefits, and wrote out tighter responses to the top three objections. I also asked for targeted coaching and listened to two of the top performers’ calls each day. Within three weeks, my conversion rate climbed back to 20%, QA went up to 95%, and my calls per hour increased by about 10%. The side benefit was that I shared my revised pitch in a huddle, and a few teammates saw similar improvements.
