#555 - Discovery Masterclass: Everything You Need to Run a Perfect Discovery Call

Learn more: https://www.30mpc.com/course/discovery-course -- ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Structure Your Call in 3 Parts: Great discovery calls have three distinct chapters—(1) the first five minutes to establish credibility and set your PPO agenda (Purpose, Plan, Outcome), (2) the next 20 minutes to uncover meaningful problems while building trust, and (3) the last five minutes to run your Five Minute Drill and determine if it’s worth setting a next step. Use Discovery Trees to Guide Questions: Map out your prospect’s problems in four layers—situation, operational pain, executive problem, and business impact. Use simple transitions like “so what?” to climb down the tree, and reverse it when execs start with big priorities. Don’t just ask questions—build a roadmap first. Balance Give and Take: If you only ask questions, you’re interrogating. Use playbacks, pile-ons, praise, and parallel stories to add value throughout the call and build trust. Use vertical questions to go deeper on one topic instead of jumping all over the place. Run a Tight Five Minute Drill: In the last five minutes, validate if they want to solve the problem, when they want to solve it, and how they buy. Suggest the timeline and buying process based on what you’ve seen work—not what they think they should do. If they’re serious, schedule the next step while you’re still on the call. 🏋 30MPC Training: ⁠30mpc.com/training
