1. They would get a NO immediately from the customer , or
2. They would get a YES and move the sales forward
3. AND completely removing the MAYBE’s
   

   1) The needs analysis and Discovery starting point – Problem, pain and hurt excavation and be able to anchor this with a Agreement on Needs Statement

   2) The Agreement on Needs Statement — ” Great so as I understand it , what you’re  really looking for is a way to _______________and _________________and _________________

   Is that sort of an accurate snapshot of what you want ?

   3) Diffuse the pressure, build trust & gain agreement — Say your version of this  Thanks for sharing that information, I wanted to take a few steps back here if  could , and I don’t want to make any assumptions at this point that there could be a good fit or match with our services and / one products at all —

   What I wanted to ask is a big favor …

   See over here at our company we have a policy where we are forbidden to chase and hunt down customers  for a decision and I want to show you the demo now and ask you this

   Dozens of other companies in your peer group have loved this and when we show you the demo and you are completely thrilled and delighted with our solution –you can tell me YES you like it and want to move forward

   On the other hand , if after we show you the demo and you feel it would not be a fit or match for what you’re looking for– you can say NO
   
   Would you be cool with just giving me a YES or NO at the end of  demo today –Not the usual –That’s great or Send me a proposal or I have talk with my partner — Would you be comfortable with that ?

   4) Getting to YES – Using F.B.R.— This is called a ” Hurt and Rescue” technique ( feature , benefit , reaction ) techniques in the solution stage — When showing a feature , turn it into a benefit and then ask a reaction based question to see how important this benefit is to them

   By asking questions like these it draws out the implication of the problem , the prospect gets to feel the pain of wanting something that they don’t have right now, that they really want –Great motivation and attraction builds up. This drives them towards your products and gets them into a state where the target is experiencing “results in advance ” and wanting the products before you have even asked any closing questions.

   Very cool scenario… of hurt & rescue, where they either rescue themselves– or ask you to rescue them

   — How easy is it to do 4,000 multi-part samples per week , if that happened ?

   — How much does it cost you when 2- 3 technicians are bottle-necked doing repetitive pi-petting and could be doing other more strategic work and analysis?
