A potential buyer just told you no on a deal you have been trying to close for months. Should you accept this objection or use sales techniques to help them change their minds? In this short and sweet episode of the Sales Evangelist Podcast, host Donald Kelly shares four steps for handling objections with you. Discover these techniques and how they can help change a potential buyer from saying no to yes. Tune in now and test these sales methods with your prospects. 1. Mindset Donald discusses that most sellers start thinking negatively when a prospect says they’re not interested in their products. Sometimes, it’s due to them really not being interested, and you’ll be able to tell by their actions. However, some prospects don’t know if they can decide on a potential deal. Donald explains how to switch negative thinking into positive thinking to help these prospects decide. 2. Why Donald explains why some prospects may view a potential deal as a threat. Your job is to figure out why they have this viewpoint. They may have had a bad experience with a different vendor and see your product as the same as theirs. Ask deeper questions to figure out the problems. 3. Value/Risk Once you understand why they have negative viewpoints, Donald discusses how you can help prospects see the value in your product. Help potential clients understand their unknown risks and tell them how your product can eliminate them. 4. Invitation Once you provide value to your prospect, give them an invitation to set a meeting with you. Donald shares how to invite prospects to schedule a meeting and close a deal. Dealing with sales objections is never easy, especially when you don’t know how to combat them correctly. However, if you listen to this episode, you’ll learn how to handle objections.
