How to Deal With Objections

This builds trust and enables you to elevate the conversation to a joint problem-solving conversation vs. a sales situation that demands objections.

Here's a process to help you do this:

• When you hear the objection, repeat it, restating it as a question, and write down what it is in your notes. You shared that you don't think this is the right time?
• Ask him to share more about why it isn't the right timing.
• Then ask, "Aside from that, what other questions or concerns do you have?"
• Repeat objections and concerns as they are voiced, restating each as a question and asking for clarification or additional concerns. "It sounds like you have several concerns here. What else is on your mind?"
• After you have the complete list of questions, repeat them aloud, and then ask, "Which of these shall we talk about first?"

2. Accept the person and the objection
Once you have discovered the objection, the next stage is to acknowledge, not only the objection, but the person as well.
