• Caller: I would like to talk with the hunting
department.
• Operator: Okay, which section of the hunting
department?
• Caller: Hunting supplies.
• Operator: Unfortunately our hunting department is
divided into many different sections. Could you be
a little more specific?
• Caller: I am interested in buying a gun.
• Operator: One moment please and I will get you
connected.
Mock Store Call 2

• Caller: I would like to talk with the camping department please.
• Operator: One moment and I will get you connected.
• …later on
• Operator: Good fishing and hunting, Bass Pro.
• Caller: Yea, I wanted the camping department, but no one
answered. Is anyone working down there?
• Operator: I do apologize for that, but we are very busy. I am going
to put you on hold and try to get someone for you.
• Caller: Okay.
• (Places caller on hold. Gets an associate in camping on the
phone.)
• Operator: I have someone from our camping department on the
phone for you now.
• Caller: Thank you.
Activity One
• Use the tables as groups.
• Look at the corporate call script.
• Discuss in your groups where each step is being
applied and why.
• Could things be done differently? What?
• Feel free to write on the sheets.
Activity Two
• Take an envelope from your table.
• Find the envelope with the same number as
yours – pair up with that person.
• Read your cards to yourself.
• Find a location and sit back-to-back.
• Use your cell phones to create the
environment.
• Do the mock phone call – use the scripts for
help.
• Repeat.
Conclusion
• How did you feel while doing the mock phone
call? Why?
• Did you learn something new?
• Four-step process of answering a phone call.
• How can we use this information now?
• How can we use this information in the future?
