I need a good place to learn sales scripts

I'm need to practice sales script and need to practice out loud. There are too many people in the house. It can be embarrassing.


I tried parks, which was o.k but couldn't express them out loud.


I tried coffee shops which was worst, I could only go through them quietly to not disturb people.


Why I don't do it in my office, I can be embracing. Also they got work to do and be annoyed by me.


The best time was when no one was in the house.


I have to practice 100 to 150 times in order to internalise a script. The only way I could internalise them is out loud. It never works when I sit down and mumble.


I would like to find a more quitter place but also free if possible. Any ideas.


Thank you. Advice appreciated.

    You can take a walk, lock yourself in the bathroom or car ...

    More importantly ... you're embarrassed ?? Really?
    This is your lively hood your talking about here.

    If your going to allow such a minor thing to get in the way of your growth
    ... what are you going to do when a real problem arises?

    Man up or give up now before you get in to deep.

    Edit:
    Something for you to think about for a minute;

    Maybe getting embarrassed when learning your lines says something really important.
    Such as ... you don't believe in sales or yourself or maybe in what you are doing.

    Not everyone is cut out for sales and not all products / services are worth selling.

    If I were you, I would take a step back and evaluate WHY I was getting embarrassed.

      You can do this anywhere. You don't have to talk out loud. You can read the script, and then mentally say it without looking.

      As far as the distractions, you'll be distracted when selling. You should learn to tune them out.

    You don't need to memorize the script.

    Just read it 25 times and keep it on the table.

    Start dialing and use the script. Actually read it while talking to the prospect.

      Buy the people in your house ear plugs... the kind you can listen to a TV show with.
      Plop them in front of the TV.
      Find a good show.
      Let them watch it.
      Practice your scripts while they're engrossed in the latest Kardashian drama, Bridezilla, Ready to Wear or whatever they like to watch.

      Or, tell them: Hey, Dudes, If I can learn how to do this well, I'll make lotsa moola. Wanna help me? I'll share the moola.

    Just go outside lol. You should record yourself and listen to it to see how you sound. It will help you with confidence when speaking.

      The best way to practice is just to burn through a couple hundred leads and figure out what tones work where for you. Stumble through it and figure out how to make it roll off the tongue correctly with live prospects... thats what has always worked for me... By the time I get through 200 numbers, I know what to say with what tone, dynamics... depending on the mood im in, the tones I use have to change to come across authentic.... usually the first 20 minutes of calling is just trying to figure out what tone is going to work for me today.... once you catch the wave, just keep a steady vibe and ride it as far as you can. Your pitching tones, style and dynamics are going to change from day to day... so I say, dont practice just get a list of prospect and bang it out till you catch a wave , ie; "get on the right frequency".
