2. Every answer must confirm
the fact that they are
going ahead.
3. If my tactics are
sound, they can’t
fight me.
B. Questioning Strategies –
Effective questioning includes
two types:
1. Open questions - Questions that
require thought on the part of the
buyer. They yield more information
and encourage continued
discussion. They are questions that
uncover information: Who, What,
When, Where, Why, and How.
2. Closed questions - Aimed at
obtaining the right answer — most
often a single word or two,
a yes or a no.
a. Tie-down - A question at the end
of a sentence that demands a yes.
b. Porcupine – Answering the right
question with a question, and then
with their response, moving onto
the paperwork.
c. Involvement - A question the
clients must ask themselves after
they get involved. It mentally throws
them into the future and assumes
ownership.
C. Using positive language
