The four objections you hear every week

Most objections in trades fall into four buckets. Knowing them in advance turns them from blockers into conversations.

Price, timing, trust, scope

Almost every objection is one of those four. Identify which one you're actually hearing, then respond to that one, not to a price objection that's really a trust objection.

Repeat back before you answer

'Just so I understand, the part giving you pause is [X]?' That sentence lowers the temperature and lets you respond to the real concern.

Most objections don't need to be 'beaten'

A calm, honest answer wins more than a clever counter. The deals you 'win' through pressure are also the deals you lose later in reviews.
