More about the Episode:
Price objections can be divided into three classes:
- Those which are not meant by the customers from the point of view of value, but that the prices are higher than they can afford to pay. These customers desire a cheaper grade of products or services.
- Those which are made solely for the sake of argument. Many customers think it is their duty to make as many objections in the course of buying, and their most frequent objections are to price.
- Those objections that are made with all sincerity. The customers object because they sincerely believe that the prices are too high for the products. They are sincere in their objections and believe in what they are saying.
Next time when you hear a price objection from your prospects, try to understand to which class of this three this objection belongs and then try to handle it properly.
