An objection surfaces. Your instinct? Defend your solution, overcome resistance, close harder.
Wrong move.
Your Framework:
When prospects hesitate or object, step back. Explore their entire decision landscape through collaborative questions:
"What other approaches have you considered?"
"What made you rule those out?"
"What would the ideal solution look like to you?"
"What's worked or failed for you in the past?"
"If budget weren't a factor, what would you choose?"
You're not defending—you're investigating alongside them. Let them tour the competitive landscape with you as their guide.
Why This Works:
Defensive responses trigger buyer resistance. Collaborative exploration builds partnership. When you genuinely explore alternatives, you demonstrate confidence in your solution and respect for their process.
More importantly, their answers reveal true decision criteria. "Too expensive" might really mean "burned by a bad implementation before." Surface objections hide deeper concerns—these questions unearth them.
Understanding what they've rejected and why gives you the roadmap to what they'll accept.
Action Step:
Next objection you hear, ask two exploration questions before addressing it directly. Let their answers guide you to the real barrier.
The best salespeople don't fight objections—they decode them.
