Let’s be real here: your performance is underwhelming, and it’s time to confront the issues head-on. Scoring an average of 3.3 is a clear sign that your current approach isn’t cutting it. You’ve been missing the mark by failing to directly address key concerns like budget flexibility and integration complexities. Instead of providing clear, actionable solutions, your responses have often been muddled and vague, leaving prospects feeling confused and unsupported. This isn’t just about poor communication; it’s about missing opportunities to build trust and rapport with potential customers.
The consistent pattern here is a lack of clarity and specificity in your responses. You need to stop brushing over critical objections and start actively listening to your prospects. They’re looking for reassurance and detailed information, not vague promises. You also need to tighten up your language and avoid grammatical errors that undermine your professionalism.
To elevate your game, I suggest you dive deep into Solution Selling and Objection Handling Techniques. Understanding how to tailor your solutions to specific pain points and effectively address objections will be crucial in your journey to improvement.
Here’s your coaching moment: remember, successful selling isn’t just about pushing a product; it’s about solving problems. Shift your focus from what you want to sell to how you can truly help your customers. If you can master this mindset, you’ll be on your way to turning those 3s into 8s and 9s. Let’s turn this ship around.

/ 10Question:
"I'm worried about how much I can afford with my current budget; are there flexible payment options?"
Answer:
Yes we can work around what works best for you in your current situation how important is it for you to move forward today ?
Feedback:
The response fails to directly address the prospect's concern about budget and flexible payment options. Instead of providing specific information on payment flexibility, it shifts the focus to urgency, which may not be appropriate given the context. Additionally, the communication lacks clarity and structure, making it harder for the prospect to understand the proposed solution. A more effective response should acknowledge the budget concern, outline available payment options, and ask relevant follow-up questions to explore their needs further.
Overall, the tone is somewhat dismissive of the prospect's primary concern, which is a crucial aspect to address in a sales conversation.

/ 10Question:
"I need assurance that this won't disrupt our current marketing workflows; how do you handle that?"
Answer:
We work independently away fro not current set up once we have a full understanding of what is currently been done
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the objection by mentioning that the work will be done independently, but it lacks clarity and coherence. The phrase 'away fro not current set up' is confusing and seems to contain a typographical error, undermining the professionalism of the communication. Additionally, the answer does not provide specific reassurance about how the integration will be managed without disrupting existing workflows. A more effective response would clearly outline processes for ensuring a smooth transition, involve active listening to the prospect's concerns, and ask clarifying questions to understand their current setup better. Overall, this response misses the opportunity to build trust and convey a collaborative approach.

/ 10Question:
"What if the integration with our existing systems turns out to be more complex than expected?"
Answer:
We try and make things are simple and easy as possible with little to know disruption caused to you and your team
Feedback:
The response attempts to reassure the prospect by emphasizing simplicity and minimal disruption; however, it lacks specificity and does not directly address the concern about potential complexities in integration. Clarifying what steps will be taken to ensure a smooth integration or providing examples of successful past integrations could enhance trust. Additionally, the phrase "little to know disruption" contains a grammatical error, which detracts from the professionalism of the response. A more effective approach would have included asking the prospect about their specific concerns regarding their existing systems to demonstrate active listening and curiosity, building rapport in the conversation.

/ 10Question:
"I'm not sure if our team has the bandwidth right now to adopt a new advertising solution; how do you suggest we approach that?"
Answer:
Having an Omon channel approach requires a few more eyes on the end goal to be reached so it will only benefit you in the long term
Feedback:
The response fails to directly acknowledge the prospect's concern about bandwidth and the challenge of adopting a new advertising solution. Instead of addressing how to manage the transition without overwhelming the team, it vaguely references an 'Omon channel approach' without explaining what it is or how it relates to their current situation. This could leave the prospect feeling confused and unsupported. A more effective response would clarify how the solution can be integrated smoothly with minimal effort from the team, possibly suggesting a phased approach or support options. Additionally, it should empathize with the prospect's concerns and ask questions to understand their current workload and limitations better, reinforcing a collaborative and supportive tone.

/ 10Question:
"Given the competitive landscape, how do I know your solution will actually give us an edge?"
Answer:
Having scoped the market we know there so many of your competitors that are not implementing this approach which is going to give you a competitive advantage
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the prospect's concern about maintaining a competitive edge by highlighting competitors' lack of implementation of the proposed approach. However, it lacks specific details about how your solution itself differentiates from competitors and provides tangible advantages. Simply stating that competitors are not implementing the approach does not effectively convey the unique value proposition of your solution. A more effective response would include specific features, benefits, or success stories that demonstrate how your solution has successfully helped similar clients gain an edge. Additionally, asking the prospect about their current strategies and challenges could enhance engagement and provide a more tailored response.

/ 10Question:
"I've had previous solutions fail to deliver on their promises; what makes yours different?"
Answer:
We work on a week to week basis not month to month we don’t wait for things to go wrong we a shortened time frame it gives us the chance to fix before broken as we work pro actively not reactively
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the concern about previous solutions failing by highlighting a proactive approach and a week-to-week working model. However, it lacks clarity and specificity regarding how these practices differentiate your solution from competitors. The phrase ‘we a shortened time frame it gives us the chance to fix before broken’ is unclear and contains a grammatical error, which undermines professionalism. A stronger response would explicitly detail unique features or examples that demonstrate past successes and reliability, addressing the prospect's concern more directly. Additionally, incorporating a question to engage the prospect further about their past experiences could foster a more collaborative dialogue.

/ 10Question:
"How can you guarantee that our data will remain private and secure with your platform?"
Answer:
We follow structur e and strict protocols to keep your data safe and our work secure
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the prospect's concern about data privacy and security by mentioning the use of "structured and strict protocols." However, it lacks clarity and specific details on what those protocols entail, which would help build trust and assurance. Additionally, the phrase "structur e" contains a typographical error, detracting from professionalism. A more effective response would include examples of security measures, industry standards followed (like GDPR or CCPA compliance), or third-party audits that reinforce the commitment to data safety. Asking a follow-up question about their specific concerns regarding data security would also demonstrate active listening and foster a collaborative approach.

/ 10Question:
"I'm concerned about the long-term ROI; can you provide any case studies or success metrics?"
Answer:
We have numerous case studies to show you we are not a hit and run agency we look to build long lasting relationships so have a low churn rate as a result
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the prospect's concern about long-term ROI by mentioning numerous case studies and emphasizing a commitment to building long-lasting relationships. However, it lacks specifics regarding the actual metrics or results from these case studies, which would provide more concrete evidence of ROI. Additionally, stating that you have a low churn rate doesn't directly address the ROI question; while it suggests client satisfaction, it doesn't quantify results. A more effective response would include examples of past success metrics or ROI figures from existing clients, as well as an invitation for the prospect to discuss their specific needs. Overall, the response could benefit from clearer communication and specificity to enhance trust and engagement.

"With our current vendor relationship, I'm not sure if switching now is a smart move; how do we navigate that?"
Answer:
Fresh perspective is sometimes what is needed and if you are not yielding moment on month growth it’s beneficial to explore other options to see would you not agree ?
Feedback:
The response attempts to present the idea of exploring new options, but it lacks a structured approach to addressing the prospect's concern about the timing of switching vendors. The phrase 'fresh perspective is sometimes what is needed' is vague and does not provide a compelling reason for change. Additionally, the language is somewhat convoluted and may confuse the prospect rather than reassure them. A more effective response would acknowledge the existing relationship's value, provide specific reasons why exploring other options may be beneficial, and ask open-ended questions to encourage dialogue. This would demonstrate active listening and a collaborative mindset, which are essential in navigating potential vendor transitions.

/ 10Question:
"I need to ensure that this aligns with our company’s vision and goals; how adaptable is your solution in that regard?"
Answer:
Your goals are our goals if we don’t feel it’s right to work with you we politely decline we need everything to align so we are on the same page always
Feedback:
The response attempts to address the prospect's concern about alignment with their company’s vision and goals by emphasizing a shared commitment. However, it lacks clarity and specificity regarding how your solution can actually adapt to their specific goals and vision. Simply stating that "your goals are our goals" does not provide concrete examples or processes that demonstrate adaptability. A more effective response would have included details on how you assess alignment, examples of past adaptability, and how your solution can evolve with the prospect's changing needs. Additionally, asking the prospect about their specific goals and vision would have shown active listening and fostered a more collaborative dialogue.
