The manager's note

Verdictno sale, no objection, caller self-terminated

“Caller closed the file himself after Bernard asked whether the gravel would want feeding; the question was never answered, as it was not the question being asked.”

The call

Oldest line at the top; it reads downward like a script.

Dawn Voss Dawn Voss, Chaudhry, Whitlock and Voss Hedgework Partnership. I'm ringing about your porch gravel — how's it holding up this quarter?
Bernard Oh, hello there. Are you in a cupboard? You sound like you're in a cupboard. Yes, the gravel, it's holding up marvellously, though I've never been sure who keeps putting it there.
Dawn Voss No cupboard, Bernard, that's just a good headset. Now, the monthly top-up keeps it looking exactly like that, and the renewal happens quietly, all by itself.
Bernard All by itself, you say. Well, that's very good of it. Now, would it want feeding, do you think, or does it just get on with it?
Dawn Voss Bernard, you've got gravel — I know, I know — but this keeps it topped up at the right depth, and it renews monthly without you lifting a finger.
Bernard The right depth. Yes. Now you'll have to bear with me, I've got a drawer full of instructions for things I no longer own. Hold on while I look for it.
Dawn Voss Bernard, take your time, but I'll be quick — I'm the best on my floor, and this is a simple yes. Shall we get that monthly top-up started today?
Bernard Best on your floor, is that right? Well, I'd have to think about it. What was it again, the gravel arriving every month?
Dawn Voss That's it, and I know you're already thinking it, Bernard, so let's not make it difficult — yes to the monthly, renewing all by itself, and you'll have it.
Bernard You'll have to excuse me, I'm a little deaf in this ear, but was that Tuesday? I thought you said Tuesday.
Dawn Voss Forget it. I'm putting the phone down now.

What the script said

The beats the caller had to get through.

  1. Open by asking how the porch gravel is holding up this quarter.
  2. Describe the monthly gravel top-up and its quiet automatic renewal.
  3. Address the objection that the porch already has gravel.
  4. Ask for the yes on starting the renewing monthly gravel.
