Whatever the reason, top producers know that there is an important step between hearing and understanding the objection and charging forward to solve it and close.
This critical step is asking if there is any other objection. If you proceed before the customer has told us the objection is the only thing preventing a deal, we risk an unconvinced customer after we have dealt with the objection.
As an example, let's assume the customer raised the dreaded price objection. If you successfully answer that challenge and convince the customer the value is greater than the price, the customer nay still balk at signing on the dotted line. When you ask why, they may say they are getting it in 90 days. If you solve that one, they may say they have to check with their Uncle Louis before buying. In other words, you can be run around by a customer unless you find out if the objection raised is the only problem before you proceed.
A good way to do this is to agree with the customer! In this example, we will assume the customer has raised a price objection. I suggest that you agree. "I see so you are not going ahead because of price? I understand. Price is a very important factor. May I ask, other than price was there anything else preventing you from investing in our product?"
At this point, the customer will either raise more objections or say there is nothing else. Customers should feel relaxed at this point as it looks like the salesperson is giving up on a sale. They often tell you even more how if it wasn't for the price they would love to have your product or service. Only when they say the objection raised is the only thing preventing or delaying a purchase are you ready to proceed to close.
This technique works with all objections, not just price. Let's take another example. Let's look at "We cannot do it now but we will be buying in three months. The salesperson should respond with something like, "I understand. Everyone should take time to make important decisions. May I ask, other than the three month delay is there anything else standing between you and owning our product/service?"
To be successful, you should only proceed with overcoming the objection after the customer has told you there is nothing else. If you have their word there i nothing else, you are ready to close when you overcome their objection.
So, take your time. Don't jump into objection solving before this critical step and your sales will increase.
In another article, we will discuss how to overcome common objections.
Are you taking full advantage of e-mail marketing in building your MLM? E-mail is one of the best tools in your arsenal of profit in network marketing. Not only is it easier to get started than most people think, but it will also allow you to put the bulk of your sales and network-marketing efforts, as well as team building, on autopilot.
E-mail marketing offers you the opportunity to: Allow prospective downline members to learn about your business opportunity, including such things as commission structure and income potential.
Improve conversions over longer periods of time, lending you credibility. Through creating a long term relationship, you build trust and an aura of reliability.
Grow your business. You can use email to keep your customers informed about upcoming opportunities, products and services.
Automate your business to a greater degree than most imagine. Do this through cutting-edge mailing list management software. This will allow you to plan by creating messages in advance that can be sent out at your convenience, in whichever order you choose.
Can you feel the power inherent in using e-mail as a foundational support to your business? E-mail marketing is both effective and reliable, a time-proven method of communication available for online businesspeople such as yourself. But how is it possible that a simple text-only e-mail can trump such interactive innovations as audio and video? It is important to remember that text, while it may seem to lack in snazzy features, is readily downloadable even for those accessing the internet with low bandwidth, and it is easily used by those who lack the experience to create elaborate multi-media presentations. Everyone and their grandmother have access to basic email.
Get started using e-mail right now in your MLM. Here are some tips as to the most efficient way to begin: Number One: Make sure to use an auto-responder in organizing your email list. The internet is littered with high quality autoreponders. Some are available in the form of software with a one time license fee. The next step is to install the software onto your personal web server.
Of course, if you want to make the process even simpler, you can use a third-party service. Third party companies use their servers to host auto responders. Some even offer services on a complimentary basis.
Step Two: After you have found your auto responder or service, you will need to formulate an auto responder series to promote your business. This is a super simple series of quick e-mails giving a concise description of products, services, and the opportunity. All of this focuses on a soft as opposed to hard sells of the product.
In addition, you will want to formulate your messages in a way that is both highly informative and of strong quality. Every message should build on the others, creating a network of interactivity that draws each prospect a step closer to action--namely, purchasing your product or joining your team.
Place these messages in your auto responder, and schedule them to your convenience. You can send one message daily, or allow as much time as you like between each message. The choice is yours. Lastly, return to your auto responder and use it to generate code for your opt-in form. Using the cut and paste feature in your computer, insert this code into your web-page. It will in turn create a subscription box. There, those who visit your website will have the opportunity to submit their names and e-mail addresses in order to join your mailing list.
They key to success in this area is offering incentives for each visitor to opt-in. Of course, the best way to do this is to use a dedicated web page, known in the business as a landing page. This page is designed for one purpose: to motivate your visitors to join your list!
Once you have automated the process, you have all of the time in the world to devote to driving traffic to your lead capture system in order to grow your list even more!
And then what? Sit back, relax and let the e-mail marketing genie work its magic. With this level of ease and convenience, youll never forget to turn to e-mail first when promoting your next multi-level program!
