Einwände von Leads sind immer eine Herausforderung, aber auch eine Chance, wirklich zuzuhören und das Vertrauen aufzubauen. Der Schlüssel liegt in einer maßgeschneiderten Empathie: Anstatt direkt eine Lösung zu präsentieren, ist es wichtig, sich in die Lage des Leads zu versetzen und zu verstehen, warum er oder sie zögert. Eine offene, ehrliche Kommunikation, bei der du ihre Bedenken ernst nimmst, zeigt, dass du ihren Standpunkt respektierst. So kannst du gemeinsam einen Lösungsweg erarbeiten, der nicht nur auf das Geschäft abzielt, sondern auch auf die Bedürfnisse und Ängste des Leads eingeht.

When handling objections from a lead, I focus on empathy and active listening. I start by fully hearing their concerns without interrupting, ensuring they feel understood. For example, if they express doubts about the product’s fit, I might say, “I understand why you’d feel that way; it’s important to find the right solution.” This validates their feelings and builds rapport. Next, I tailor my response to address their specific concern, whether it’s about price, features, or timing. I reframe the objection positively, highlighting how our solution can meet their needs effectively. For instance, if they mention budget constraints, I emphasize the long-term value and offer flexible options.

Objections come from uncertainty. I ask questions to understand the root cause. Lack of trust, value, or urgency. Then, I reframe the objection by clarifying how our offer solves their problem. It’s about listening, addressing concerns, and showing confidence in the outcome.

The best way to get around an objection is to anticipate it. In practice, it works like this: 1. Collect the objections most faced by the team in the last 6 months. 2. Create a spreadsheet with the objections and the best ways to respond to them. Now comes the golden tip: 3. Next, write what questions you can ask in the qualification stage to anticipate this objection. 4. Determine the best time to ask this question. Would it be on a form? In a phone call? During the demo? This way, you can anticipate your leads’ main objections and respond to them even before closing. This way you shorten the funnel time and increase the closing %.

First, what are objections? They are concerns that prevent leads from taking action. They stem from doubts, fears, beliefs... It's easier to overcome these once they're consciously identified by both parties. Put a spotlight on it so you can actually address it. So when a lead is discussing their problem make sure you're mirroring, labelling their emotions, getting to the root of their problem. They won't listen to what you have to say until they FEEL you fully understand the problems they're going through. When they come up with an objection, calibrated "what" and "how" questions are helpful. "What would make this work for you?" "What about this is important for you?" "What is the biggest obstacle you're facing?" Good luck!

1) No início da conversa com o lead, pratique a escuta ativa e entenda quais as motivações e dores que o lead possui. 2) Ao surgir uma objeção ao longo da conversa , continue praticando a escuta ativa, pois muitas vezes a objeção inicialmente exposta não é o que realmente está incomodando o cliente. Faça perguntas e descobra qual realmente é o problema e como isso está em linha com as motivações que você mapeou inicialmente na conversa. 3) Trate a objeção revivendo como sua solução vai de encontro com as motivações dele, personalizando para a objeção em questão.

I listen actively by allowing the lead to express their objections without interruption, paying close attention to their tone and wording to fully understand their concerns. Acknowledge their perspective to show that you value their input. Use phrases like, "I understand why you might feel that way" or "That’s a valid concern, and I appreciate you sharing it." To dig deeper, ask open-ended questions to uncover the root of their objections, such as, "Can you share more about why this is a concern for you?" or "What would make you feel more confident about this decision?

When facing objections from a potential client, it's important to engage with empathy and understanding. Start by actively listening to their concerns without rushing to offer solutions. Acknowledge their feelings and make it clear that you understand their perspective. Then, tailor your response to their specific needs, showing how your solution can address their pain points. Always maintain a positive, reassuring tone, emphasizing that their satisfaction is your top priority. How do you handle objections in your conversations with leads?

At first a meeting has to be prepared 1- anticipate the objections => make as much research as possible. AIs are often useful for that (Perpelxity.ai for instance) and then prepare your answers 2- Listen - Listen - Listen : as a previous VP Sales always told us : "you have 2 ears and 1 mouth => listen twice more than you speak" 3- show with empathy you understand his concerns and re-formulate them in a way to be sure you well understood his concerns. She/He will appreciate the effort 4- the prep you did is now useful, and if well prepared you already have answers to demonstrate you understand his pains and have a solution to solve them - ideally with good references close to his biz As I always say, 1 hour meeting = at least 3 hours of prep
