You don’t lack courage. You lack the sentence.

The Scripts Vault is 120 word-for-word scripts for the conversations adults put off: money with friends, a manager, a parent, a refund, an apology. Find the situation. Say the words.

PDF, instant download. Includes 40 printable script cards, A4 and US Letter.

The Scripts Vault, printed, with script cards

You’ve done at least one of these.

  • “I rehearsed it in the shower. Then I said nothing.”
  • “I’ll bring it up when the moment’s right.”
  • “I don’t want to make it a whole thing.”
  • “I’ll just send a long message instead.”

The problem usually isn’t courage. Nobody handed you the first sentence. Once you have it, the rest is mostly listening.

Most hard conversations go wrong in the first thirty seconds.

Not because people are unkind. Because the opening comes out too long, too apologetic or too sharp, and the other person reacts to that instead of to what you meant. A script fixes the first thirty seconds. You handle the rest.

Ten scripts in each. Every one written to be said out loud by someone who’s nervous.

  2. At work, upward
  3. At work, sideways and down
  4. Parents and in-laws
  5. Friends
  6. Partners
  7. Neighbours and strangers
  8. Medical and official
  9. Refunds, bills and cancelling
  10. Bad news and apologies

Every script, the same four parts

So you can find what you need in seconds, even five minutes before the conversation.

THE SITUATIONOne line, so you know you’re on the right page.
THE SCRIPTThe actual words, ready to say or send. Four sentences at most.
IF THEY PUSH BACKOne line for the most likely reply.
DO NOT SAYThe common mistake, and what it costs you.

How it works

  1. Find the situation.Use the contents or the quick-find list at the back. It takes seconds.
  2. Say it out loud once.To the kitchen, not to them. Change any word you’d never say. Keep the shape.
  3. Have the conversation.Say the script, then stop talking. If they push back, the next line is already written.

Two ways to get the words

The Vault gives you the words. The kit covers the whole conversation: the first minute, the words, and the repair afterwards.

What it won’t do

  • It won’t make the other person agree. It gives you a clear, fair opening. Their answer is still theirs.
  • It won’t help you win by pressure. No script in it manipulates, guilt-trips or bends the truth.
  • It isn’t legal, medical or financial advice. Where a situation needs a professional, the script says so.

Questions

What format is it?

A PDF that opens on any phone, tablet or computer, plus a printable card file in A4 and US Letter.

When do I get it?

Straight away. The download link appears after payment and arrives by email too.

Will the scripts work where I live?

They’re written for the US, UK, Canada and Australia. Money appears as [amount], not a currency, and no script depends on one country’s rules.

Won’t I sound like I’m reading?

Not if you change the words. Swap any word you’d never say for one you would, and keep the shape. The opening pages show you how.

What’s the difference between the Vault and the kit?

The Vault is the 120 scripts and 40 cards. The kit adds three books: how to open a conversation, how to say a hard thing once, and how to repair after a fight.

Can I get a refund?

All sales are final because the files download instantly. If a download doesn’t work, email contact@toreadmore.com and it will be sorted.
