PREVENT-PREEMPT-RESPOND

When does it usually occur? After the initial introduction of your products/services.
Probable Cause: Prospect does not believe he/she has the responsibility or authority to move forward.
Objective: Identify the buying influences.

PREEMPTION Strategy 2 of 3: Ask your Benefits Questions in a way that will help you identify other key decision-makers. For example, “Who would be most interested in the ROI this will bring?” "Who are the people invested in improving performance capabilities?" "Who would like to see a dramatic increase in user friendliness?"

More than one person can be in each role, and you can have one person serve in more than one role. You can tell which role they are in by the questions they ask.

Tab the pages, make your own notes, and start your own sales objections strategy book for the specific objections you get for what you sell. Make flashcards. For years and years, from company to company, that's what I did, and that's why I was always at the top of the sales force.
