What to Tell Your Agent

3 min readUpdated 2026-02-16

Key Takeaway

Share six types of context with your agent for best results: your unique value proposition, your ideal client profile, common objections and how to handle them, specific case studies and results, off-limits topics or companies, and any seasonal promotions or capacity constraints.

Essential Context for Your Agent

The more your agent knows about your business, the better its outreach. Here's what to share:

1. Your Unique Value Proposition

Tell your agent what makes you different:

  • "We're the only plumber in Portland that offers same-day service with a money-back guarantee"
  • "We've been serving the neighborhood for 20 years — we know every building"
  • "Our pricing is 30% below market because we use {specific technology}"

2. Your Best Clients

Describe your ideal customer:

  • "Our best clients are restaurants doing $500K-$2M revenue with 15-50 employees"
  • "We work best with business owners who are hands-on, not marketing directors"
  • "Solo practitioners are our sweet spot — they need help but can't afford a big agency"

3. Common Objections

What do prospects usually push back on?

  • "They often think we're too expensive — lead with value first, price later"
  • "People confuse us with {competitor} — emphasize our {differentiator}"
  • "Most objections are about timing — offer a free consultation with no commitment"

4. Case Studies & Results

Share specific wins:

  • "We helped Restaurant X increase foot traffic by 40% in 3 months"
  • "Our average client sees ROI within 60 days"
  • "Last month we saved Company Y $15,000 on their insurance"

5. What NOT to Say

Every business has off-limits topics:

  • "Never mention competitor X by name"
  • "Don't promise specific timelines — say 'typically 2-4 weeks'"
  • "Avoid the word 'cheap' — use 'cost-effective' or 'affordable'"
  • "Don't reach out to {specific company} — they're a current client"

6. Seasonal Information

Keep your agent current:

  • "We're running a summer promotion: 20% off first service"
  • "We're fully booked for December — focus on January bookings"
  • "Tax season is our busy period — push urgency in Q4 outreach"
