One of the best things about sales is that you already know what all the objections are. For every sale, there are only about five core objections: price, think about it, talk to someone else, etc., So, why not eliminate, in advance, your top one or two objections? The post Don’t Handle the Objection—Eliminate It!

Want to make dealing with objections easier? Then remember to always use the powerful technique of isolating the objection instead of answering it…. I can’t tell you how many recordings I listen to each week where sales reps are still struggling to deal with objections because they insist on trying to overcome them.

No one like objections, including those who have learned to see objections as a means of moving the call forward, they just understand, appreciate and leverage pushback differently than those who are crushed by the same response. Sellers are surprised when prospects who fit the “persona” reject them when they call.

What’s the number one blow off prospects use these days? Not only is it hard to get prospects back on the phone, when you do, you usually lead off with the ineffective opening line of: “Did you have a chance to review that email I sent you?” And then when a prospect blows you off with, “Can you email that to me?”

At first glance, this seems hard to handle because it’s not really an objection, rather, it seems more like a stall. Because of this, it fools many sales reps who think that perhaps after a week or two the prospect might actually buy. But they rarely do. Make no mistake: this is almost always a “no” disguised as a “maybe.”

The common goal in sales is winning your prospect’s prospect. Again, this makes the people your prospect is trying to win, your responsibility as well. So while we are thinking about how we can sell our product to this prospect, they are asking about how this will help them sell to their customers. Who’s Paying For This?

Telephone prospecting is hard, in fact so hard that most people spend a disproportionate amount of time and energy trying to avoid it. The net effect is the same, no engagement, no prospect. The problem for many would-be tele-prospectors is that they see the objection as being separate from the rest of the call.
