Alright, let's break this down. Your performance was about as exciting as watching paint dry. You scored a pitiful 2/10 on the first response, which was so lackluster it could put an insomniac to sleep. Sure, you had a couple of decent moments with scores around 5 and 6, but overall, you were coasting on mediocrity. Your biggest issue? A serious lack of engagement and curiosity—it's like you were more interested in the clock than the prospect. You need to step up your game and learn how to actually connect with clients instead of just throwing words at them. Get it together and learn to ask questions, show empathy, and provide real value. Otherwise, you might as well be selling vacuum cleaners door-to-door. Let’s aim higher next time, shall we?
Question Breakdown

/ 10Question:
"I'm not sure we really need pressure washing; can't we just use a hose?"
Answer:
No that would get the job done correctly
Feedback:
The response is ineffective in addressing the concern. Simply stating that a hose won't get the job done correctly lacks explanation and doesn't provide any value. You missed an opportunity to educate the prospect on the benefits of pressure washing over using a hose, such as efficiency, effectiveness in removing tough stains, and saving time. Additionally, there's no engagement or curiosity shown towards understanding the prospect's specific situation. A more collaborative approach that acknowledges their perspective and asks questions about their cleaning needs would have been beneficial. Overall, the response lacks clarity, value exploration, and a closing technique.
Score: 2/10

/ 10Question:
"Your pricing seems higher than other pressure washing services we've looked at."
Answer:
Yes but we also carry insurance and take pride in our services and we offer property protection as well
Feedback:
The response addresses the objection about pricing by highlighting the added value of insurance and quality service, which is a good start. However, it lacks depth and doesn't fully explore the prospect's concerns or ask follow-up questions to understand their perspective better. Additionally, it could benefit from more persuasive language that emphasizes the long-term benefits of choosing a slightly higher-priced service over potential risks associated with uninsured providers. A closing technique could also be incorporated to encourage the prospect to discuss further. Overall, the tone is appropriate for the industry but could be more engaging.
Score: 5/10

/ 10Question:
"We just had our property cleaned recently; why should we do it again so soon?"
Answer:
Regular maintenance can help prevent from father damages to the property and helps keep the algae and mold and dirt down . To help your house Stay shining
Feedback:
The response addresses the concern about the timing of the service but could benefit from clearer communication and a more engaging tone. While mentioning regular maintenance is valuable, it lacks specificity and a compelling reason for the prospect to consider scheduling another cleaning so soon. Additionally, the phrase 'to help your house Stay shining' feels a bit awkward and could be rephrased for better clarity. A stronger closing technique, such as asking how often they typically schedule cleanings or if they noticed any specific issues after their last service, would help foster curiosity and discovery. The response does not fully explore the value of your service in relation to their recent cleaning, nor does it effectively build rapport. Overall, it's a decent start but needs polishing.

/ 10Question:
"How do I know your equipment and techniques are better than those of other companies?"
Answer:
We would love to show you how our equipment is different from others , do you have time for us to do a demo ?
Feedback:
The response addresses the concern by offering a demo, which is a practical way to showcase the equipment's superiority. However, it could benefit from a bit more context about what specifically sets your equipment and techniques apart. A stronger response would acknowledge the prospect's concern about comparing equipment and perhaps provide a brief highlight of unique features or benefits before suggesting the demo. There's good intent in asking for a demo, but it could be framed more collaboratively by inviting further discussion or questions. Overall, clear communication is present, but the value exploration and curiosity could be enhanced.

/ 10Question:
"What if the weather doesn't cooperate on the scheduled day?"
Answer:
We usually work no matter the weather , unless it’s lighten or thundering outside . So weather usually isn’t a problem
Feedback:
The salesperson's response acknowledges the concern about weather but lacks depth in addressing the prospect's anxiety. While they mention that they usually work regardless of weather (except for extreme conditions), they could enhance their reply by explaining how they handle weather-related challenges, perhaps by offering flexible rescheduling options. The tone is straightforward, but it could benefit from a more reassuring touch to align better with customer concerns. Additionally, the response doesn't invite further conversation or questions, missing an opportunity for engagement. There is no closing technique or value exploration present. Overall, the response is functional but could be improved significantly in terms of reassurance and engagement.

/ 10Question:
"Our budget is tight this quarter; how flexible are you with pricing?"
Answer:
What is your budget so we can see if we are a right fit for this project?
Feedback:
The response directly asks for the prospect's budget, which is a step in the right direction to understand their constraints. However, it lacks empathy and could come off as somewhat transactional. Instead, it would be more effective to acknowledge their budget concerns first and express willingness to work within their limits. For example, saying something like, "I completely understand that budgets can be tight, and we want to help you get the best value. Can you share what you're working with, and we can explore some options together?" This shows active listening and a collaborative approach. Overall, while the inquiry is relevant, it could benefit from more warmth and a solution-oriented mindset.
Score: 5

/ 10Question:
"I need to consult with my partner before making a decision; can I get back to you later?"
Answer:
What may be some concerns you are having that his or her decision is going to make yours any different?
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the objection by questioning the validity of the partner's influence on the decision. However, it lacks empathy and could come off as dismissive. A more effective approach would acknowledge the importance of discussing with a partner and offer to provide additional information or answer any questions. This would demonstrate active listening and a collaborative approach. The response did not include any closing techniques or explore the value of the service in a way that would keep the prospect engaged. Overall, the tone could be more supportive and less confrontational.

/ 10Question:
"Is there a guarantee on your work? What if I'm not satisfied with the results?"
Answer:
Yes there is a customer satisfaction guarantee or you don’t have to pay
Feedback:
Your response does address the concern about satisfaction guarantees, which is important in the pressure washing industry where results can vary. However, it lacks depth and warmth. You could enhance your response by acknowledging the prospect's concern more empathetically and providing more details about how you ensure customer satisfaction, such as offering to re-do the job if they're not happy. Additionally, you might want to invite further questions to keep the conversation flowing and show you're engaged. A closing technique could involve asking for their preferred time to discuss this further or if they have any other concerns. Overall, it's a decent start, but it needs more engagement and detail to build trust.

/ 10Question:
"Our property is quite large; can you handle big jobs efficiently?"
Answer:
Yes we can most certainly do this. We have done some very large projects and are very well equipped
Feedback:
While the response acknowledges the prospect's concern about handling large jobs, it lacks depth and specificity. It would be more effective to provide examples or details about previous large projects to build credibility. Additionally, the response could benefit from a collaborative approach by asking questions about the specific needs of the prospect's property to demonstrate curiosity and understanding. A closing technique or call to action is also missing, which could help in moving the conversation forward. Overall, the communication is clear, but it does not fully engage the prospect or explore the value offered.
Score: 4/10

/ 10Question:
"How can I be sure that your service won't damage my surfaces?"
Answer:
We use low pressure to clean , we can show you that it won’t , plus we have reviews from other customers and our technicians are trained
Feedback:
The response addresses the concern about potential damage by highlighting the use of low pressure and mentioning technician training. However, it could be more effective by providing specific examples or testimonials that directly relate to the prospect's surfaces. Adding a question to further engage the prospect, such as 'What specific surfaces are you concerned about?' would demonstrate curiosity and active listening. The tone is appropriate for the industry, but the closing technique is missing. A suggestion to schedule a demonstration or follow-up could strengthen the response. Overall, it shows some value exploration but lacks a collaborative approach to fully build rapport.
