Clarify - Exactly what is it that you need to think over? (Price)

Rephrase - It sounds to me like you're on a budget, just like and everyone else I know, am I right?
Isolate- Other than price, is there any other reason you wouldn't want to take this car home today? 

Close - Alright then, why don't you let me worry about those numbers.  Can I get you coffee or something cold to drink while we get the paperwork together?

Define a summary close and give an example. 

Agree with there objection and then use yes questions to summarize why they should by. 

Ex,  I understand why you feel that way; this is a big decision. Really quick before you leave though, you really do like the car don't you? And you said it was your favorite color, wasn't it? And it has all of the features you wanted, doesn't it? It sounds to me like we have found the perfect car for you guys. Seriously now, let's put this shopping behind you  so you can enjoy your new vehicle. Were we going to register this in one name or two? 

300

Define the "Ben Franklin" close 

Ask them you like to jot down a few notes to clarify what they like about the vehicle before they leave so you don't forget. Once they list everything they like about the car, you try to close - "seriously now guys, you really love this car. It has everything you want and need. In fact, I'm telling my manager to start the paperwork.  Did you want this registered in one name or two?

Describe what the pre-presentation close is used for and give an example. 

For the 10% of difficult clients. 


Ex. I'll make you a deal, I won't try to sell you anything if you let me get to know you and ask you some questions so I can tell you how I think our vehicle would be best for you and at the end of the presentation, you just be honest and tell me if you thing my vehicle is for you, is that fair? 

400

Explain why closing depends on your first 45 minutes with the prospect.

If you do not build enough rapport, you will be unable to close the deal. 

If you don't investigate enough, you will not be able to put them into the right car.

Give an example of the agree and close using the objection of price. 

You're right; it is too much money.  But this is the perfect car for you.  Don't buy a car you don't want; let me get you something to drink while we take a look at the paperwork. Do you want some coffee or maybe something cold to drink?
