French term

RDV de qualification

French to English Bus/Financial Marketing business meeting
I'm having trouble finding the English equivalent of 'RDV de qualification'. The term figures in a list of suggestions to help improve a salesman's turnover (he works in an IT company) ;

- Lister les projets possibles sur le secteur. Réaliser le mois prochain un RDV de qualification chez 3 prospects de cette liste avec son directeur.

All I can come up with is "preliminary appointment". Has anyone got a better idea?

Thanks in advance for your ideas.

initial appointment

I think the term is more widely used than 'preliminary'

Thanks, 1045
agree Victoria Britten : Yes, "preliminary" suggests more that there's necessarily something to come afterwards

Thanks, Victoria: yes, after the initial contact, there may or may not be further contact
