Course Description
One of the most frustrating things about being a salesperson is the prospect who wants to stall or delay their decision. After spending time developing a relationship, asking powerful questions to uncover needs, presenting solutions that speak to those needs, and garnering respective commitments, a prospect’s decision to stall can be incredibly frustrating.
But successful salespeople are fearless in their pursuit of the sale, and their success has less to do with being aggressive and more to do with their strong desire to help their prospect. They have an unwavering commitment to help the prospect solve their problems and this is the differentiator that helps them close the sale and ultimately drives their success.
In this course, you’ll sharpen your closing skills and learn advanced selling strategies to address the buyers’ attempts to stall or delay their decision. We’ll discuss the different types of stalled sales tactics, their impact on a sale, and ways to address them. We’ll also discuss how objections can progress the sale, and the need for a follow-up call with a buyer and how to counter new or old objections that might arise.
