Conversation training with a real voice

The conversation you keep dodging. Have it once beforehand.

Criticism, escalation, a rejection, a price that wants defending: Cotrax builds you a counterpart that reacts credibly, evades and does not give in out of politeness. You speak — and afterwards you are told what landed.

  • Speak right away, no sign-up
  • Seventeen situations
  • Feedback against your goal’s criteria

Winning someone over · Trial call

Lena Hartmann

Project lead in a neighbouring team

You want to win her over to lead a new undertaking with you. She is the right person for it – and already has plenty on her plate.

Your goal: A clear yes – or a concrete next step.

No sign-up. All it takes is your microphone.

A real voice, not a chat windowInterrupting allowedThe person does not know your offerEvery answer assessed on its own

Two registers

Selling is only half of it.

Most training practises the close. Cotrax also practises what comes up more often day to day and is practised less: telling someone something unpleasant without damaging the relationship.

How it works

Set it up. Speak. Get better.

  1. 01

    Describe the situation

    Who is sitting across from you, what happened, what you want to achieve. A few sentences become a person with a stance, limits to what they know and an interest of their own.

  2. 02

    Have the conversation

    You call and you speak. Your counterpart interrupts, evades and does not give in because you asked nicely. No chat window, no time to think it over.

  3. 03

    Read the review

    Every answer is assessed on its own — with your own sentences quoted and a better wording beside them. Not “well done”, but exactly what you would say differently.

Why it works

Your counterpart does not know what you know.

A role play becomes useless the moment the other side knows your offer, your goal and your arguments: then it is not negotiating, it is waiting for its cue. Cotrax holds that line technically — nothing you enter as preparation ever reaches the person.

Separate prompts

Your goal and your product knowledge go to the trainer, not to the person. A check in the code watches over that, not good intentions.

Real limits to knowledge

What your counterpart cannot know, it does not know. It has no reference work and no web search.

Interests of its own

The person has a reason to say no — and keeps it until you give them a better one.

What comes afterwards

No praise. A finding.

Once you hang up, there it is: what landed and where you gave away effect — on your own sentences, not on a scale.
