Where your leads start the conversation
Most consultants get buyers from three places. Each one deserves its own first question.
A diagnostic lead magnet
They comment “SCORECARD” for your diagnostic. The flow sends it, the setter asks about their company.
Readers who switch apps
A LinkedIn post links to your WhatsApp. Founders arrive with a problem already in mind.
A keyword from a podcast
Listeners DM the keyword you said on a podcast. Ask what made them reach out now.

Ask these before the call
A setter books calls only for people who pass your fit rule. These questions make the rule, one per message.

Not a fit when
Wants free advice in the DM, not a project. Runs a company outside the industries you serve. Is a job seeker asking for career tips.
Keep confidential details off DMs
Tell the setter to ask about the problem in general terms. NDAs, financials and contract questions go to you on the call.

Opener after the scorecard
Right after your flow sends the scorecard.
Here’s the scorecard! Before you score yourself: what does your company do, and how many people are on the team?
- Next
- Wait for the company and team size.
- Why it works
- Size and industry tell you in one reply if your method applies.
Find the problem
Once you know the company.
Thanks. Which problem made you grab the scorecard, and what is it costing you today in time or money?
- Next
- Listen for a cost: hours, churn, missed deals.
- Why it works
- A named cost turns curiosity into a project.
Budget and decision
When the problem is one you solve.
That’s the work I do: Replace [offer] for Replace [ideal client], Replace [price]. Is that in range, and who else would weigh in on the decision?
- Next
- In range: book with everyone who decides. Out of range: share a free resource.
- Why it works
- Budget and buyer in one message, before your hour is spent.
Book the intro call
After a yes on budget.
Great. Let’s look at how to get you Replace [result] on a 30-minute intro call. Replace [day] at Replace [time] or Replace [day] at Replace [time]? Bring whoever decides with you.
- Next
- It books in the DM with Cal.com, Calendly or iClosed.
- Why it works
- Two options and the right people make the first call count.
A useful follow-up
Two days later, if no time is picked.
Hi Replace [first name], just checking in. I can send a one-page outline of how a project at Replace [business] would run before we talk.
- Next
- After that, wait for them to come back.
- Why it works
- Something useful earns the reply a reminder doesn’t.
