Because of this, it fools many sales reps who think that perhaps after a week or two the prospect might actually buy. Questioning this objection is much better than saying, “Okay, when should I call you back,” which is what most sales reps say. That’s the only way to win a sale. appeared first on Mr. Inside Sales.

This week, I listened to a closing call from one of their reps, and here is how the prospect opened the call: Prospect: “Let me just tell you upfront that we’re looking at a lot of different options right now of which yours is just one…”. Then: “And also, I’m not the decision maker on this, I’m just an influencer.

I want to share with you what this common prospecting error is and how to immediately fix it. Plus, what was missing was a value statement of what might be in it for the prospect.

At first, it seemed almost rude to utter it… But let me ask you: out of ten prospects you pitch to, how many end up actually buying? Yep, two out of ten prospects you speak with turn into buyers. That’s why most people get burned out in sales. That’s why most salespeople find sales discouraging.

Problem: Salespeople talk too much when they finally get a prospect on the phone. They talk over their prospects and generally learn very little about what it takes to close a sale. Then hit MUTE again and listen as your prospect reveals more. They pitch features and benefits instead of asking questions and qualifying.

Rookie mistake: You’ve got several products or services you can offer a prospect, and you start by offering the first, or main one, then hear an opening for another one so pivot to that one, and describe another—and then another. Stalled sale. Not only will the prospect be confused, but you will be, too. Sound familiar?
