Customer acquisition appears in the reviewed Relationship Manager descriptions. Preparing for it means understanding a person’s needs and the approved process, not collecting as many contacts as possible.
Clarify how leads are obtained
Ask whether enquiries come from a branch, campaigns, referrals or field activity and which channels are permitted. Do not assume you should use personal contact lists or scrape numbers. A prospective customer’s permission and an employer’s outreach rules matter more than an improvised high-volume plan.
Define a useful conversation
Introduce your role accurately, ask whether it is a suitable time and explore the stated need. Explain only verified information. If there is no fit, accept that answer rather than manufacturing urgency or implying that a product is compulsory.
Record a next step carefully
In a practice worksheet, record only a fictional need, permission status, unanswered question and next action. Do not put real financial details into a personal spreadsheet. A lead is not an approved customer, and a conversation is not a completed sale.
Your practice checklist
- Confirm permitted lead sources.
- Respect a refusal or request to stop.
- Keep acquisition stages distinct.
