Overview

Calling Scripts is the selected client's reusable library for generating, writing, importing, reviewing, and applying cold-call talk tracks. You can mark one saved version as the client default so new campaigns inherit it. Existing campaigns keep their own copy until you turn Use default Calling Script on for that campaign. Saved versions that are formally linked to a campaign stay protected from deletion until every campaign is moved to another script or to Campaign-specific copy. The Operational workflow panel guides the work from client context through review. Employees can also refresh the current Playbook script snapshot without changing other saved scripts or campaign settings.

How to use this page

  1. Select the client and open the library

    Choose the client in the switcher. If a current Playbook snapshot exists, it opens by default and is labeled Current Playbook. A Default badge appears on the saved version that is currently the client default.

  2. Refresh the current Playbook copy when needed

    Employees with the Playbook refresh control can select Refresh Playbook copy when Playbook sections are available. Confirm the prompt to replace the current Playbook script snapshot with the latest wording. Other saved scripts and campaign settings stay unchanged.

  3. Follow the operational workflow

    Use the panel to confirm the client Playmaker and selected style, generate or edit a structured conversation, review it, and publish the selected saved version only when ready. Select a stage to read its detail. Use Previous and Next to move one stage at a time. Play advances automatically, selecting a stage stops playback, and arrow keys, Home, and End work while a stage is focused.

  4. Choose or create a script

    Use New Script to create from Playbook, write manually, generate with Playmaker, import from CSV, or import from PDF or Google Doc. Imported files are reviewed as drafts before they are used.

  5. Set a client default Calling Script

    Open the saved version you want other campaigns to follow and choose Set as default. The button becomes Default on, and the sidebar marks that version Default. New campaigns inherit this script. Existing campaigns stay on their own copy until you open the campaign Calling Script tab and turn Use default Calling Script on. Choose Default on again to clear the client default. Campaigns already following it stay on until you turn the default off there.

  6. Review and apply a version

    Edit blocks, notes, and ordering in the selected version. Use Apply to Campaign only when you intentionally want to copy this version onto a campaign. Opening, starring, or setting a default does not apply the script by itself. Applying a script to a campaign turns that campaign's inherit switch off so it keeps its own copy.

  7. Detach linked campaigns before deleting

    Check Formally linked campaigns before deleting a saved version. For each linked campaign, open its Calling Script tab and choose another saved version, the client default, or Campaign-specific copy. If the script is also the client default, clear Default on. Return to Calling Scripts and use Delete script only after no campaign or client default depends on that version. If a formal link remains, SalesHive names one linked campaign and keeps the saved script intact.

  8. Export or reuse content

    Use version actions to export to Google Docs or PDF, duplicate or reuse content, and reuse objection blocks while preserving other campaign sections. Review the final saved version before applying it.

What the buttons do

Refresh Playbook copy
Employee-only control that, after confirmation, refreshes the current Playbook script snapshot with the latest Playbook wording. Other saved scripts and campaign settings stay unchanged.
Operational workflow
An interactive four-stage workflow explorer. Select a stage to read its detail, use Previous and Next to move one stage at a time, or Play and Pause the sequence. Manual stage selection stops playback, and the counter shows your current stage. It does not take an action on its own.
New Script
Opens the Playbook, manual, AI, CSV import, and PDF or Google Doc import paths.
Create from Playbook
Copies this client's Playbook sections into a new draft.
Write manually
Names a blank draft and opens the rich-text script block editor.
Generate with Playmaker AI
Generates a script from the selected client's Playmaker with AI.
Import from CSV
Uploads a CSV and maps each column to a script section before saving a draft.
Import from PDF or Google Doc
Uploads an existing script or accepts a Google Doc link, then uses AI to break it into sections for review.
Set as default / Default on
Marks the open saved version as the client default, or clears that default. New campaigns inherit the default. Existing campaigns keep their own copy until Use default Calling Script is turned on there.
Apply to Campaign
Applies the reviewed open script version to a selected campaign as that campaign's own copy and turns inherit off.
Delete script
Permanently deletes the open saved version only when it is not the client default and no campaign is formally linked to it.
Reuse objections
Reuses objection blocks from the selected script without applying the full script.

Common questions

For employees with the control available, it replaces the current Playbook script snapshot with the latest Playbook wording after confirmation. Other saved scripts and campaign settings stay unchanged.
It explains the review path for calling scripts. It does not apply a script to a campaign by itself. Select a stage to read it in detail, or use Previous, Next, and Play or Pause to navigate the sequence.
No. Opening or refreshing a version only updates the saved library snapshot. Use Apply to Campaign for an intentional campaign copy, or Set as default if new campaigns should inherit this version.
It marks the selected client's current Playbook script snapshot. Older scripts remain available.
That version is the client default Calling Script. New campaigns inherit it. Existing campaigns stay on their own copy until you turn Use default Calling Script on for that campaign.
They are campaigns using that saved library version as a live link. Edits to the saved script also update those campaigns. The saved version cannot be deleted until every formal link is moved to another script, the client default, or Campaign-specific copy.
At least one campaign is still formally linked to that saved version. Open the named campaign, choose another Calling Script option, wait for it to save, then return and delete the version. The protected script remains unchanged until it is detached.
No. Set as default names the living client default. Apply to Campaign copies the open version onto one campaign and turns that campaign's inherit switch off.
No. They keep their own copies until you open each campaign and turn Use default Calling Script on.
Select any stage to show its detail. Previous and Next move one stage at a time, while Play advances automatically and Pause stops it. Selecting a stage also stops playback. With a stage focused, use the arrow keys, Home, or End.
Yes. Open New Script, choose Import from PDF or Google Doc, then upload a supported file or paste a Google Doc link. The document must be shared with saleshive.com or link-shared. Review the AI-created sections before saving the draft.
A campaign gets its own copy after you select Apply to Campaign, choose the target, and confirm. A campaign follows the living default only after Use default Calling Script is on, or when a new campaign is created while a default already exists. Editing, importing, exporting, starring, and refreshing the Playbook snapshot do not apply a script by themselves.
