Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 Wingman’s In-App Objection Handling Battlecards FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Use typically language to help guide your buyer into the next steps. When the buyer wants to multithread to someone you’re not familiar with, ask how that person has contributed to purchases in the past. When your champion is proposing to finance, offer to be a “fly on the wall” to help support them. If you aren’t on the call, ask questions about what the call will look like and what issues could come up in it. Keep your buyer’s best interest in mind when driving the timeline. Don’t drive it using your quota or discount.

It’ll help build rapport and understand the organizational vision. If you suspect someone is going to be a blocker in the deal, bring it up with your champion before it even happens. Don’t stay single-threaded in accounts. Just because you booked a meeting doesn't mean you shouldn’t keep prospecting. If you’re introduced to power: share your hypothesis, then introduce a few things only they can answer to further expand on your discovery.

Playbook: The Negotiation Playbook

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS When giving price: explain how it works first, then give price and stop talking. When the customer asks for a discount, act surprised and push away to encourage them to come back to the table. Lock in access to power before negotiating. Confirm the person you’re speaking to can get the deal done on time and approved. Don’t make unilateral concessions. Try to leverage options or create a cost to negotiation with “give for get”.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Use typically language and stories to gain credibility with your prospect, leading to deeper discovery. Ask your champion how they plan on justifying a purchase to the larger org. This aligns you to business level problems and also serves as champion validation.  Mirror multithreading in the sales cycle. Bring a VP for a CXO. Bring an SE for a technical buyer. Bring in product for someone cross-functional. Leverage your own senior leaders to story-tell and pull in the people at power during the demo.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS When asked for pricing early, give a range but hold the other key pricing details until you get feedback. If you’re getting ongoing buying objections, suggest that it may be too early to be talking. Get to the true objection when someone asks to be sent more information. Before giving any discounts, get clear commitment on timing. And make it clear that if there’s a slip, it starts back at standard pricing.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Segment your sequences between above and below-the-line decision-makers. Permission Slap: Ask for permission to give valuable information. e.g. Can I send you a 90-second video so I can show how you might get a sense of what win rates look like in RFPs? Look for keywords in the investor day transcript or in the 10-K, then attach those to the messaging you use above the line. Prospect in bursts. Voicemails and social touches power email replies even if you don’t get a reply on that channel.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Prospect the right people: 80% of your prospecting time should be spent contacting folks ABOVE the power line. Set agendas like a human being: In the first 4 minutes of any meeting, address the time, the meeting content, & the potential next steps. Understand the intent behind your prospect's questions: If you get asked a broad question from a prospect, ask a question about their question to determine what information they are actually seeking. Keep Power in the loop: Share regular (succinct) status updates with the executive sponsor of your deal. It's your job to keep reiterating WHY their organization is looking to buy your thing.
