Why This Promotion is a Game-Changer for Dealers

  • $2,000 in free devices: Four phones worth up to $500 each = massive value

  • No upfront cost: Customers don't pay anything for devices at activation

  • No trade-in required: Keep your old phones or sell them separately

  • Family-friendly: Four lines is perfect for typical family size


2. Competitive Pricing on Basic Plan

At $120/month for four unlimited lines, T-Mobile Essentials is highly competitive:

  • Referral potential: Happy families refer friends and extended family


Target Customer Profiles

1. Verizon/AT&T Families Paying Too Much

Pain point: Paying $150-$200/month for four lines on Verizon or AT&T


Your pitch: "You're paying $180/month for four lines on AT&T. What if I could get you four unlimited lines on T-Mobile for $120/month—that's $60/month savings—PLUS four brand new free phones? You'd save $720 per year and get $2,000 worth of free devices. When can we get you switched?"


2. Families with Old/Broken Phones

Pain point: Need new phones but can't afford $800-$1,200 per device


Your pitch: "I know new phones are expensive—$800, $1,000, even $1,200 each. But what if I told you T-Mobile will give your entire family four brand new phones for FREE when you switch? No trade-in required, no upfront cost. You keep your old phones or sell them. All you pay is $120/month for unlimited service. Sound good?"


3. Prepaid Customers Ready for Postpaid

Pain point: Want better phones and postpaid benefits but worried about cost


Your pitch: "You're on prepaid now, which is great for saving money. But you're probably using older phones, right? T-Mobile is offering four FREE brand new smartphones when you switch to their Essentials plan—that's postpaid service with unlimited data for $120/month. You get better phones, better service, and you're only paying $20 more per month than most prepaid family plans. Let's upgrade your family today."


4. Single-Line Customers Who Can Add Family

Pain point: Paying high per-line cost; family members on separate plans


Your pitch: "You're paying $60/month for one line. What if you could add three family members—parents, kids, spouse—and get FOUR lines for $120/month total? That's $30 per line instead of $60. Plus, T-Mobile gives you four free phones when you bring everyone over. You'd save money AND get new devices for the whole family."


Sales Scripts: Converting Customers to This Offer

Script 1: Opening Pitch (Family Walk-In)

You: "Welcome! Are you folks currently with Verizon, AT&T, or another carrier?"


Customer: "We're with AT&T."


You: "Perfect. How many lines do you have?"


Customer: "Four lines—me, my wife, and our two kids."


You: "Okay, four lines. What are you paying per month right now?"


Customer: "About $180."


You: "Got it. Well, I have great news. T-Mobile is running a promotion right now that's perfect for families like yours. If you switch all four lines to T-Mobile, you get four brand new smartphones completely FREE—no trade-in required, no upfront cost—and your monthly bill drops to $120. That's $60 per month savings, plus $2,000 worth of free phones.


So let me ask: would you rather keep paying AT&T $180/month, or switch to T-Mobile, save $60/month, and get four free phones? It's kind of a no-brainer, right?"


Script 2: Overcoming "I'm Happy with My Current Carrier" Objection

Customer: "We're happy with Verizon. We've been with them for years."


You: "I totally understand—loyalty matters. But let me ask you this: is Verizon giving you four free phones? Are they saving you $60 per month?


Here's the thing: T-Mobile's network is just as good as Verizon's now—in fact, T-Mobile has the largest 5G network in the country. You're getting the same quality service, but you're saving $720 per year and getting $2,000 in free devices.


Loyalty is great, but at some point, you have to ask: what is Verizon doing to earn that loyalty? T-Mobile is literally giving you $2,000 and cutting your bill by $60/month. That's $2,720 in value in the first year alone. How long would it take Verizon to give you that kind of value?"


Script 3: Addressing Device Quality Concerns

Customer: "What kind of phones are we talking about? Are these cheap phones?"


You: "Great question. These are quality smartphones—typically Samsung Galaxy A-series, Motorola, OnePlus, TCL. These aren't flagship $1,200 phones, but they're solid mid-range devices that do everything most people need: great cameras, fast processors, 5G connectivity, all-day battery life.


Think of it this way: these phones retail for $300-$500 each. They're not budget phones—they're mid-tier devices that perform really well for everyday use. And if someone in your family wants a premium phone like a Galaxy S25 or iPhone, you can upgrade one or two lines and still get the other phones free.


But honestly, most families are thrilled with these phones. They're getting devices that would normally cost $400-$500 each, completely free. Let me show you the options and you can decide which ones work best for your family."


Script 4: Handling "I Don't Want to Be Locked In" Objection

Customer: "If we get free phones, are we locked into a contract?"


You: "Good question. Here's how it works: the phone cost is spread over 24 months as bill credits. So technically, you're committing to staying with T-Mobile for two years to get the full value of the free phones.


But here's the thing: you're not locked in. You can cancel anytime. If you leave before 24 months, you just lose the remaining bill credits and would owe the balance on the phones.


But there's no early termination fee or penalty beyond that.


And realistically, if you're saving $60/month compared to AT&T or Verizon, why would you leave? You're getting better value, free phones, and the same quality network. Most families who switch to T-Mobile stay because the value is unbeatable."


Script 5: Closing the Deal

You: "So here's what we're looking at: four lines on T-Mobile Essentials for $120/month—that's $30 per line. Four brand new smartphones, completely free. You save $60/month compared to what you're paying now, which is $720 per year. Plus you get $2,000 worth of free devices.


We can port your numbers over right now—you keep your same phone numbers—and you'll walk out of here today with four new phones, activated and ready to go. The whole process takes about 30 -45 minutes.


We just need your account number and PIN from your current carrier, and we're good to go. Do you have that information with you, or do you need to call your carrier to get it?"

Customer: "We have it."


You: "Perfect! Let's get you switched over and save your family some serious money. Which phones would you like for each line?"


Objection Handling: Common Concerns and Responses

Objection 1: "T-Mobile's coverage isn't as good as Verizon/AT&T"

Response: "That used to be true 5-10 years ago, but T-Mobile has invested billions in their network. They now have the largest 5G network in the country—covering more square miles than Verizon or AT&T.


Here's what I recommend: let's check coverage at your home address, your work, and the places you go regularly. T-Mobile has a coverage map that shows exactly what you'll get. And if for some reason the coverage doesn't work for you, T-Mobile has a satisfaction guarantee—you can return everything within the trial period.


But honestly, 95% of customers who switch from Verizon or AT&T to T-Mobile are shocked at how good the coverage is. And you're saving $720 per year plus getting $2,000 in free phones. Even if coverage is 95% as good instead of 100%, is that worth $2,720 in value? Most people say yes."


Objection 2: "We need our old phones for trade-in value"

Response: "Great news—you don't need to trade in your old phones for this promotion. T-Mobile is giving you four free phones with no trade-in required.


So you can keep your old phones as backups, give them to family members, or sell them yourself on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or a trade-in site. You might get $100-$300 per phone depending on the model and condition. That's extra money in your pocket on top of the $2,000 in free phones and $720 annual savings.


This is literally the best deal in wireless right now—free phones, no trade-in required, and you save money every month."


Objection 3: "What if we don't need four lines?"

Response: "I understand—not every family needs exactly four lines. But here's the thing: this promotion requires four lines to get the four free phones.


That said, a lot of customers get creative. Do you have parents, grandparents, adult kids, or other family members who need phone service? You could add them to your plan and split the cost. At $30 per line, it's incredibly affordable.


Or, some customers add a fourth line as a backup/hotspot device, or for a tablet. The line costs $30/month, but you're getting a $400-$500 phone free, so it's still great value.


If you truly only need three lines, T-Mobile has other promotions that might work better. But if you can find a use for that fourth line—even giving it to a family member—this four-line deal is unbeatable."


Objection 4: "I don't want to deal with porting numbers"

Response: "I totally get it—porting numbers sounds complicated. But I promise you, we make it super easy. I handle the entire process for you right here in the store.


All you need is your account number and PIN from your current carrier. I enter that information, and T-Mobile handles the rest. Your numbers transfer over—usually within 15-30 minutes—and you walk out with your new phones working with your same phone numbers.


You don't have to call your old carrier to cancel. You don't have to do anything except give me your account info. I've done this hundreds of times, and it's seamless. The hardest part is waiting 20 minutes for the port to complete—and we can grab coffee while we wait."


Objection 5: "This sounds too good to be true"

Response: "I hear that a lot, and I don't blame you—it IS an incredible deal. But here's why T-Mobile can afford to do this:


T-Mobile wants to grow their customer base and take market share from Verizon and AT&T. They know that if they can get you to switch, you'll probably stay for years because the value is so good. So they're willing to invest $2,000 upfront in free phones to earn your business long-term.


The phones are delivered as 24 monthly bill credits, so T-Mobile spreads the cost over two years. And they're betting that you'll be so happy with the service and savings that you'll stay—which most customers do.


This is a real promotion, and it's available right now. But it's limited-time, so if you're interested, we should move quickly before it ends. Let me show you the phones and get you switched today."

Key Talking Points for Every Customer Interaction

The Value Proposition (Memorize This)

"When you switch four lines to T-Mobile, you get four brand new smartphones completely FREE—that's up to $2,000 in value. Your monthly bill is just $120 for unlimited talk, text, and data on all four lines. Compared to Verizon or AT&T, you're saving $60-$80 per month, which is $720-$960 per year. So in the first year alone, you're getting $2,720-$2,960 in total value. No trade-in required, you keep your same phone numbers, and the whole process takes about 30 minutes. This is the best wireless deal in the country right now."


Three Questions to Ask Every Customer

1. "How many lines does your family have?" (If they say 4 or can add to 4, this promotion is perfect)


2. "What are you paying per month right now?" (Calculate their savings: their current bill minus $120)


3. "When was the last time you got new phones?" (If phones are 2+ years old, emphasize the value of 4 free new devices)


The Urgency Close

"This is a limited-time promotion, and honestly, I don't know when T-Mobile will end it. These kinds of deals don't last long because they're so valuable. If you're interested in saving money and getting free phones, we should get you switched today. I have time right now to get you set up—do you have your account information from your current carrier?"

It eliminates the #1 barrier to switching: device cost. Customers don't need to trade in their old phones, don't need to pay upfront, and don't need to worry about financing. They get four brand new smartphones for free, period.


It delivers massive savings. $720 per year compared to Verizon or AT&T is real money that families notice in their monthly budget. Combined with $2,000 in free devices, the total value is undeniable.


It targets the most valuable customer segment: families. Four-line families have low churn, high lifetime value, and strong referral potential. Win one family, and you often get referrals to extended family and friends.


Your action plan:

  1. This week: Update all marketing materials, train your team on the promotion, and launch social media campaign

  2. Daily: Every customer interaction should include the question "How many lines does your family have?" If the answer is 4 (or close to 4), pitch this promotion

  3. Marketing focus: Target Verizon and AT&T customers in your area with Facebook/Instagram ads emphasizing savings + free phones

  4. Sales technique: Lead with value ($2,720 first-year value), overcome network objections with coverage checks, create urgency with limited-time messaging

  5. Upselling: Every activation should include device protection and accessories—this is where you maximize revenue


The bottom line: This promotion is your biggest customer acquisition opportunity right now. Families who have been thinking about switching but couldn't justify the device cost now It eliminates the #1 barrier to switching: device cost. Customers don't need to trade in their old phones, don't need to pay upfront, and don't need to worry about financing. They get four brand new smartphones for FREE, plus they save money every month compared to Verizon and AT&T.


The math is simple and compelling:

  • $2,000 in free phones

  • $720 annual savings (vs. typical Verizon/AT&T family plan)

  • $2,720 total first-year value


This is the easiest sale you'll make all year. The value proposition sells itself—your job is simply to communicate it clearly, overcome a few basic objections, and guide customers through the porting process.


Your action plan for this week:

  1. Monday: Update all marketing materials (window signs, social media, website)

  2. Tuesday: Train your team on promotion details and sales scripts

  3. Wednesday: Launch digital ad campaign targeting families in your area

  4. Thursday: Email your customer database about the promotion

The opportunity is NOW. This promotion is limited-time, and once it ends, you'll wish you'd pushed harder. Every day you wait is a day that families in your area are switching at competitor stores.


Get aggressive with your marketing. Train your team to confidently present the value. Make it easy for customers to say yes. And watch your activation numbers soar.


This is your moment. Don't waste it.
