“…. Following a difficult separation, I found myself alone with my children and without work, left to my own devices, to my financial problems…. So I applied to a clairvoyance company which claimed to be “La Plateforme des Meilleurs Voyants de France.” “The interview” went one way, if you can say that, because I only listened to the advice and recommendations of my interlocutor. Basically, how to trick the gullible customer, how, without qualms, to retain him, how to show him wonders, how to retain him and extract the maximum amount of money from him.
At the end of the interview, I was convinced that I was going to be rejected and hear myself say: ‘‘You were wrong, you do not have enough knowledge to practice clairvoyance, in short, you have the wrong address, door or company. “But against all expectations, my doubts, my uncertainties were swept away with the back of the hand and I was immediately promoted to LIFE COACH and it was only on my speech that the interview manager hired me.
As I needed to get out of the delicate situation I found myself in, I was happy to be able to work but, deep down, I told myself that maybe I would learn on the job and be able to help my neighbor.
A week later, the Clairvoyance Society sent me a package, inside: a telephone set.. a brief handling of the device to get started and here I am as a clairvoyance or scam professional, despite myself. The latter has 4 buttons: two reserved for the platform and the other two for audio. Audio is very simple: the customer calls from a number and my job is to transfer it to the switchboard. The goal is to encourage, to convince the client to go for a private consultation, this brings more to the company and a good percentage to the so-called “psychic” salesperson. And it doesn’t matter what the client’s financial situation is.
As consultations via audiotel are not really profitable, “clairvoyants” are asked to use all the tricks of the trade and persuasive seduction to convince clients to opt for private consultations and the purchase of expensive packages, under the guise of “serious, practical, discreet and effective clairvoyance”.
The price of the consultation carried out by the service salesperson, who poses as a clairvoyant, is not given. : 15 euros for the first 10 minutes then 6 euros 50 for the additional minute, and there, the salespeople, for the most part, compete in ingenuity to persuade the gullible customer not to be satisfied with a 10-minute consultation because, according to them, it is a short time and does not allow for effective clairvoyance. They thus manage to convince many customers who end up accepting a private consultation and if they are still hesitant, the salespeople make sure they call back. Many are hesitant, people are not rolling in gold and the ends of the month are difficult when it comes to making ends meet., the salespeople are instructed to push the envelope a little too far and tell them: “It’s a shame to want to stop there because I have a very interesting deck of cards for you…” I’m not making this up, I was, despite myself, a witness to such practices. For those who still believe in this nonsense: “Don’t quit, I’m focusing on the cards, let it be said, there are NEVER, EVER any cards. it’s always the sound of papers. As for the pendulum consultation, it is a way like any other to save time, to make the clock tick and thus gain precious minutes to steal from the client, by making them believe anything.
I happened to invent a large number of stories, based on platform recommendations, to poor customers to extract the maximum from them, while listening to the company’s managers who did not hesitate to come to the rescue of the clairvoyant, sorry, the salesperson lacking inspiration for the scam.
I stayed, in total, 10 days, as the way of proceeding within this platform disgusted me and can only inspire disgust for anyone called to, supposedly, help and enlighten their neighbor.
Let it be said, there are NEVER, EVER cards. it’s always the sound of papers. As for the pendulum consultation, it is a way like any other to save time, to make the clock tick and thus save precious minutes to steal from the client.
Another technique used during the consultation, when I feel that the client is stalling, I ask him for a number between 1 and 10, this re-enchants the conversation and this technique allows the client, despite himself, to give you confidential information about him and those around him. So, these salespeople always have the opportunity to catch up and bullshit the customer.
The surprise and instant adaptation: the phone rings, it’s the switchboard: « we’re going to give you X (the first name of the consultant), it’s following a mailing sent to potential clients. Today, you are going to be Sophia, specialist in the professional field / specialist in love / specialist in the enchanted sock[…]». the price is always indicated.
At the other end of the line, a woman: “Hello, in the email you sent me you promise me a radical change in my life / you tell me about a blonde woman who is putting obstacles in my way / you tell me about a long-term man who is coming back into my life”
It is quite obvious that I am not Sophia, and that I never solicited this poor woman. I I will therefore take on her role for the consultation, while being cunning to get her to talk about the content of the email in question.
These emails, sent by the hundreds or thousands, are all personalized, depending on the situation of the customer who we take for a sucker to be plucked/ As I had just come out of a consultation, the form was not sent to me, so I had to embroider. I took a moment to ask my superior, who told me that the sending of emails in large numbers is done by another department, from another major(?) company,
Conduct of a consultation: There are quite common techniques to encourage the client to give in:the intonation of the voice (we must ensure that we find a long-time friend, that we are happy to find her), make her repeat her first name and above all ask her for confirmation of her date of birth…, the date of birth allows the person to be recorded in the databases At a specific moment, she is asked the reasons for her consultations, a technique to destabilize her because, in principle, the client was not expecting these questions. -that totally loses her!
We are instructed to build customer loyalty, to create a cocoon, an atmosphere of intimacy, with the goal that the customer or especially the customer feels good and wants to “return” there.
My consultation finished, I take a look at the text messages sent to me by my BOSS, who listened, of course, to the progress and content of my consultation: « I am listening to you at […]
Quite a mess, what a mess! Much more compassion and listening are needed: “my dear” and “my darling” are two essential parts of the conversation, of the consultation.
To make a living, you have to follow management’s instructions and tell customers what they want to hear, otherwise the customer hangs up!
I stayed on this platform 10 days, 10 days too long, I earned €6,000 for the company, by telling customers nonsense. I couldn’t bear to deceive poor people.
You should know that the so-called art professionals who work on this platform are nothing other than salespeople, themselves feeling bad about themselves. »
