What’s the nature of objections, anyway? I believe most people simply have limiting beliefs of some sort; old conditioning that often keeps them from succeeding. It may be fear of failure, fear of success, fear of being ripped off, fear of overwhelm, etc. Problem is that these objections keep them from finding the solutions that solve their most pressing problems. Their self-doubt gets in the way of their success.

Objections are actually a good sign that you’re close to the sale. I didn’t believe this at first, but over the years of talking to prospects and having to answer their questions (i.e., objections), I see how true this is today. Here’s why. If someone were completely NOT interested in what you have to offer, they wouldn’t even BE on your website, much less talking to you. They wouldn’t waste their time.

If they’re asking you questions and offering up objections, there’s a large part of them that’s interested. And that means, all you have to do is answer the questions, reassure them, and you’re on your way to a sale. Better yet, by hiring you, the prospect is FINALLY on their way to a solution that’s probably been plaguing them for a long time.

Objections are a way for the prospect to acknowledge the self-doubt or limiting beliefs that stop them in their tracks. It’s actually YOUR job to help get them out of their own way so they can experience success. You do this by ANTICIPATING and then BREAKING DOWN the objections.

Knowing the 5 most common objections people have allows you to be prepared when they come up. You’ll certainly have more (dozens and dozens more, trust me) but it’s key to start with at least the ones that come up most often. These are the predictable ones, not in any particular order:

1. It costs too much.
2. It won’t work.
3. I’m different; it won’t work for me.
4. I can wait; my situation’s not that bad.

   Casing Your Institution IV
   In this lesson we will explore what the actions from groups and individuals that hinder the health and growth of institutions. In our last lesson we discussed how a healthy institution worked. We talked about the people at the edge of the institution. We talked about the constituency, which is in the next layer. We talked about the power people who are part of the constituency, but who have access to the governance. We talked abou

      Medical Billing - DME Software Add Ons
      Everybody loves the extras. Getting what you pay for is one thing, but when you get those extra items, is when you feel like you're getting more for your money. In the world of medical billing, this is no different. Unfortunately, most software systems don't give you those extras at no cost. Still, there nice to have when you want to do a little bit more than just bill for services rendered. So what are some of the more common ext

         Successful Marketing for Introverts
         In my experience I have seen many levels of introvert and extrovert. Let me share some of my own.* Invite me to a party -- I'd rather have a root canal* Have me speak about something I'm passionate about in front of a group of people -- I shine.* Put me in a "casual" networking group -- root canal please.* Put me in a "structured" networking group where I can ask for what I need and help others at the same

            Using leads to try and get new customers is an essential part of growing your business. And sometimes, though you have an opt-in system set up, you aren't getting the type of results you want. You need more business, but aren't sure what to do.Lead generation companies can probably help you by taking the pressure of expanding your client base off your shoulders and placing it on the shoulders of professionals.The job of t

            Chances are, you’ve thought about these too when someone tried to sell you a service or a product before. But think about it. Each time you HAVE purchased the service or product and gotten great results, you kick yourself for not doing it sooner!

            Since you’re not in the business of selling, but rather, problem solving, it’s your DUTY to break down these objections so a prospect doesn’t wait a minute longer to work with you, so not too much time passes that they’ll regret being without your solution to their problem. As a problem solver, it’s your most important task. Makes sense?

            YOUR ASSIGNMENT

            1. Go back through your notes and list the objections people have given you in the past. Note the ones that come up most often.
            2. Create a short rationale paragraph for why each objection is not valid or any other ways to overcome these objections.
            3. Practice saying these out loud so you come off confident next time you talk to a prospect with objections.
            4. Sprinkle your marketing materials with these rationales.
            5. Do this and I guarantee you will attract more clients and make more money.
