The Script

"Hi [Name], this is [Your Name] with [Brokerage]. I saw your home for sale on [Street/Website] and wanted to reach out. I work with a lot of homeowners who are selling on their own, and I have some insights that might help you get the best results. My number is [phone number]. No pressure at all - just thought the information might be valuable. Again, [Your Name] at [phone number]."

Modify the tone and word choices to match your natural speaking style. If you're more formal or casual, adjust accordingly. The key is to sound authentic while hitting the main talking points.
