This webinar is co-presented by the Minnesota News Media Institute and Online Media Campus

Overcome Objections and Close More Sales!

Thursday, May 9 | 1 p.m. – 2 p.m.

In order to overcome objections effectively, you need to understand the value proposition between the newspaper and the advertiser. Advertisers view advertising as a risk — there is no guarantee they will get the results they are looking for. Reps who understand this dynamic can reassure advertisers that advertising in the newspaper is well worth their investment.

Following the techniques introduced and discussed in this webinar will help you develop grace under pressure!

Topics we will cover:

• Viewing objections as buying signals
• Understanding the difference between a condition and a true objection
• Using your negotiation skills to minimize the power of the most difficult objections
• Learning specific techniques for overcoming the most common objections

Deadline to register for the $35 fee is Monday, April 15th. A $10 late registration fee begins on Tuesday, April 16th.
