Key Takeaways:
- Make It About Them: People want to talk about themselves—let them. Build trust by showing genuine interest in their story.
- Stay Focused: Avoid distractions and tangents during a call. Steer the conversation back to solving the seller's problems.
- Ask Open-Ended Questions: Instead of pushing for a commitment, guide sellers by asking, "What are you hoping to get from our meeting?"
- Create Urgency by Highlighting Pain Points: Dig deeper into what’s costing the seller money or time and reflect those concerns back to them.
- Master the Pre-Close: Ease into it by suggesting the next step naturally, asking if they’d be open to discussing working with you.
