“I want to think this over.” How many of us have heard this in our selling careers?  Most salespeople hate hearing those words along with “I don’t have any money,” “my last ad didn’t work” or “nobody reads the paper anymore.”

There are a lot of theories, ideas and techniques out there to overcome objections and closing skills. If you are using any that work, please continue using those. If you are having challenges overcoming the objections and closing sales, please join me for this webinar as we will give you techniques, words and phrases to help.

This webinar will cover:

• The top 5 objections you will hear on a daily basis and how to overcome those objections
• Understanding the internal objections we give ourselves
• Two different approaches to dealing with objections
• A refocus on “buying signals”
• Closing techniques of the professionals
