Let's cut to the chase: your performance is lacking, and it shows. With an average score of 0.8, it’s evident that you’re missing the mark on some fundamental selling skills. The responses are riddled with inadequacies, failing to engage with prospects or address their concerns meaningfully. You’re not just losing sales; you’re leaving opportunities on the table because you’re not even scratching the surface of effective objection handling. You need to dive deep into developing a solution-focused approach. Stop being dismissive and start listening. Your responses must reflect curiosity and a desire to understand the prospect's situation. I suggest you study the Solution Selling technique along with Objection Handling Techniques. These will help you learn how to tailor your responses and engage in meaningful dialogue with your prospects. Remember, sales is about building relationships and understanding needs, not just pushing your product. Your coaching moment? The next time a prospect raises a concern, don’t just brush it off. Acknowledge it, explore it, and provide real, solid solutions. That’s how you turn a no into a yes.

Question:
"What happens if we need more customized features down the line?"
Answer:
Our team is dedicated to serving your needs to utmost satisfaction. Should you need to update the features down the line, our team will gladly be able to accommodate your needs. A revised quotation will be provided and the work on the new solution will be started immediately.
Feedback:
The response addresses the objection by acknowledging the possibility of needing customized features in the future and assures the prospect of support. However, it lacks specifics on how the customization process works or potential timelines, which could add more value. Clear communication is present, but it could be enhanced with examples or scenarios that reflect similar past experiences. Additionally, while it conveys a dedication to customer satisfaction, it could benefit from a more collaborative tone—inviting further discussion on the prospect's specific needs and concerns would demonstrate active listening and curiosity. Overall, there is a positive attempt to reassure the prospect, but more detail and engagement would improve the effectiveness of the response.

Trust us. We're the best
Feedback:
This response is overly simplistic and lacks substance. It does not address the prospect's concern about the saturation of the market or provide any compelling reasons or unique differentiators for why your solution is superior. Merely asserting that "we're the best" is insufficient and fails to engage the prospect effectively. To improve, you should highlight specific features, benefits, or case studies that distinguish your offering from competitors, address the prospect's comfort with their current situation, and explore their needs to create a more tailored response.
