A Thing I Object

 

I Object!

 

     As sales professionals, we hear hundreds of objections every week. Some are more original than others but, when you get right down to it, there are really only a handful of objections, and about 500 different ways to voice them. Chances are, when you hear an objection your prospect is telling you one of the following things:

  • I don’t need your service/product.

  • I need the service/product but I’m not buying from you because I don’t trust you.

  • I have some money but I don’t feel your service/product. is valuable.

  • I may need your service/product, I may not. Either way I don’t feel like making a decision right now. (And, if you haven’t qualified the decision maker, “I don’t have the authority to make this decision.”)

     Sometimes we get caught up in the objection. But, if you can break it down and find out if it is about need, trust, money, or ambivalence, you will know how to approach the objection, resolve the issue, and close the sale.
