DEFLECTION

Avoid handling the objection by deflecting it so it does not hold up everything else. Listen to it, express understanding, and then carry on as if nothing happened! Say you will come back to it later on.   Examples: Yes, I see what you mean. Now let me show you the range of colors I… Continue reading DEFLECTION

ACT CURIOUS

CONDITIONAL CLOSE

When the prospect offers an objection, make it a condition of resolving their objection if they make the purchase!

REFRAMING

Puppy Close

Puppy Close Give them the product to try out. If possible let them take it home. Like a puppy, it should sell itself.

Assumptive Close

Assumptive Close Act as if the person has made the decision already. Acting confidently as if something is true makes it difficult for the other person to deny it.
