Prevent the Objection, “Don’t need it.” Strategy 3 of 4

ObjectionFreeSellingIconObjection # 4 of 85:Don't need it.

When does it usually occur? Initial contact.
Probable Cause: Prospect does not believe a need exists.
Objective: Establish a need.

During your pre-call planning, look for information that would suggest an obvious need for your Unique Selling Points (USPs) based on similar companies in this market segment. Create the gap with your USP's missing Advantages and Benefits. Sometimes a sliver of a crack is all you need to build it into something monumental using Benefit Questions.

During your prospect interview explore where your USPs can have a measurable impact in the areas of:

  1. Prospect’s products and services: How can your Unique Selling Points make them better.
  2. Prospect’s critical processes: How your Unique Selling Points impact their ability to make money.
  3. Prospect’s business plan: How your Unique Selling Points support their strategic initiatives, goals, buying cycles, budgeting, and so on.

The needs you must find are those related to the functions of your USPs.
