Ouch! It's clear that you're struggling right now, and the average score of 3.2 reflects that. The feedback highlights a serious lack of clarity and detail in your responses, especially around addressing the prospect's concerns about cost, quality, and timelines. You’re missing the mark on engaging your prospects and establishing trust. Active listening? It’s like it doesn’t even exist in your approach. You need to step it up by articulating specific solutions, inviting dialogue, and showcasing the value you can provide.
Your strongest demonstrated techniques seem to touch on acknowledging concerns, but that’s not enough. Acknowledgment without substance is just noise. There’s a consistent pattern of vagueness in your responses, which is an issue that’s killing your credibility. You must ditch the vague phrases and start providing concrete examples and tailored solutions that resonate with your prospects' specific needs.
To turn this around, I suggest you dive into the SPIN Selling and Solution Selling techniques. These methods will help you craft better responses by focusing on the Situation, Problem, Implication, and Need-Payoff, while also honing in on specific pain points and tailored solutions.
Remember this: Selling isn’t just about talking; it’s about engaging and building relationships. If you want to succeed, you need to listen actively, respond clearly, and show genuine interest in your prospects' needs. Take this as a wake-up call. You have the potential to improve dramatically, but it’s time to get serious about your craft. Let's turn those scores around!

The phrase "find the right situation" is vague and does not articulate a clear value proposition.

Answer:
Glad you ask, I can work on putting things in place for you with an timeline. As soon as we complete the sales process to get the order in.
Feedback:
The response acknowledges the prospect's concern about the timeline but lacks specific details regarding the actual duration for completing the wheel alignment. Phrases like "putting things in place" and "with an timeline" are vague and do not provide clarity on how the timeline will be managed to avoid impacting operations. Additionally, the response does not establish a sense of urgency or commitment to ensure prompt service. To enhance this answer, it would be beneficial to provide a clear timeframe, outline steps taken to minimize disruption, and invite further discussion on any specific operational concerns the prospect may have.

"I need to ensure that your service meets our compliance standards; can you provide evidence of your adherence to industry regulations?"
Answer:
Yes, I can go over all of the history about our company and product and answer any questions that you might have to ensure your confidence level in us.
Feedback:
The response acknowledges the request for compliance evidence but lacks specificity and detail. It does not directly address how the company's services meet compliance standards or provide any concrete examples or documentation to support this claim. Instead of offering to discuss the history of the company, it would be more effective to mention specific compliance certifications, documents, or processes that ensure adherence to industry regulations. Additionally, the response does not invite further questions or encourage a dialogue, which limits engagement and rapport-building with the prospect.

Great question, I provide self service which allow all of my customers to have and one on one relationship with me. I provide an consultation approach they will ensure that I am selling strictly off of the best solution for your shop.
Feedback:
The response touches on the importance of a personalized relationship but fails to directly address the prospect's loyalty to their current vendor. It does not provide compelling reasons for why they should switch, such as highlighting unique advantages, differentiating factors, or specific benefits that your service can offer over the existing arrangement. Additionally, the phrasing is somewhat unclear and lacks a structured approach to presenting value. To improve, focus on demonstrating how your service can solve their problems more effectively, perhaps by providing examples or testimonials. Engaging the prospect with questions about their current satisfaction with the vendor could also open a dialogue.

However, it lacks clarity and grammatical accuracy, which undermines professionalism. It does not provide specific details on how these standards translate into tangible results or reliability for the prospect. To improve, it would be beneficial to explain how the equipment contributes to precision, possibly by providing examples or statistics about success rates or customer satisfaction. Additionally, inviting the prospect to discuss their previous issues could enhance engagement and demonstrate active listening.

Feedback:
The response emphasizes personal support, but it lacks specificity about the training process and the resources available for the team. Phrases like "the most important part of the sale" and "help that you and guys need" do not clearly articulate a structured training plan or what the support entails, which can undermine confidence. To improve, it would be beneficial to detail the training methods (e.g., hands-on workshops, online resources, ongoing support) and how you will ensure that the team quickly adapts to the new service. Engaging the prospect by asking about their team's specific concerns or previous experiences with learning curves could also enhance rapport and address their worries more effectively.

Feedback:
The response attempts to address long-term benefits but lacks clarity and specificity. While mentioning the company's history is valuable, it fails to connect this to tangible benefits regarding vehicle performance. Phrases like "stop company" are unclear and reduce the professionalism of the response. It would be more effective to detail how your service improves vehicle performance over time, such as enhancing fuel efficiency, extending tire life, or ensuring smoother rides. Additionally, engaging the prospect with questions about their current vehicle performance issues could create a more collaborative dialogue.

Phrases like "several alignment to choose from" and "find the prefect solution" are vague and do not detail what those options are or how they can be tailored to unique requirements. It would be beneficial to provide examples of specific alignment services offered, explain how they can be customized to meet different needs, and invite the prospect to share their specific requirements. This would demonstrate a more solution-focused and collaborative approach, enhancing engagement with the prospect.

/ 10Question:
"How do you plan to handle any technical support needed during the alignment process, especially if our team encounters unexpected issues?"
Answer:
Glad you ask, I would leave my contact information only with my FST number and customer service. I would explain to you the proper step to take when that time comes.
Feedback:
The response acknowledges the prospect's request for technical support but lacks depth and clarity. Simply stating that you would leave contact information does not reassure the prospect about the support they will receive during the alignment process. It would be more effective to outline specific support mechanisms, such as available resources, response times for assistance, or procedures for troubleshooting common issues. Additionally, inviting the prospect to discuss their past experiences with technical support and any specific concerns they have could foster a collaborative approach and enhance trust. Overall, the answer falls short in demonstrating a proactive and comprehensive support strategy.
