Sales objections typically arise in several key areas during the sales process. The first is when you’re trying to secure someone’s time during prospecting, attempting to schedule a meeting on their calendar and obtain a few minutes of their attention.

One blur is the line between who is a buyer and who is a prospect. Assuming buyers and prospects are the same and the words interchangeable perhaps explains the output numbers year after year. You need to accept that prospects are not buyers, which is a good thing for us. Prospects are entirely different than buyers.

In a sense, dealing with objections from customers is a similar process. Rarely do customers tell you the whole story when they present an objection. Most times, it’s a short phrase or sentence that doesn’t cover the real reason for the objection. So, what’s the first thing you should do when an objection comes up?

Who do you think knows why your prospect buys? Who do you think knows when your prospect is going to buy? The answer, of course, is your prospect! The problem for many sales reps, is that they prefer to pitch and talk at prospects more than they actually ask questions and listen. Or who they like to buy from?

If you’re ever challenged with the objection, “Your price is pretty high for that…” and you are tempted to see if you can lower your price to compete, what is the most important bit of information you need? I was listening to a training call the last week, and the prospect told the rep that his price was quite high for a certain item.

When prospecting doesn’t take place on a daily basis, salespeople fail to build their pipelines. Whether you call it cold-calling, prospecting, outbound, or hunting, the name doesn’t change what it is or how difficult it is.

One of the best things about sales is that you already know what all the objections are.

What’s the number one blow off prospects use these days?
