1 The Trial Close

The trial close is a technique that involves asking your prospect a question that implies agreement or readiness to buy, such as "How do you feel about this solution?" or "Would you prefer this option or that one?". The purpose of the trial close is to test the temperature of your prospect and gauge their level of interest and satisfaction. If they respond positively, you can move on to the final close. If they raise objections or concerns, you can address them and overcome them before asking for the sale.

Pienso que el cierre de juicio es un paso necesario antes de un cierre de pregunta final, pues este te permite adaptar la manera como el cliente se siente cómodo a decir que Sí! sin que parezca algo impuesto como una habilidad de persuasión de ventas. Estoy convencida que hoy más que nunca le creemos mas a los procesos llevados de natural y empatica.

2 The Assumptive Close

The assumptive close is a technique that involves acting as if your prospect has already decided to buy and moving on to the next steps, such as discussing the payment terms, delivery details, or contract signing. The assumptive close is based on the principle of consistency, which means that people tend to follow through with their previous actions and statements. By assuming that your prospect has agreed to your offer, you can create a sense of urgency and confidence and reduce the chances of them backing out or changing their mind.

3 The Urgency Close

The urgency close is a technique that involves creating a sense of scarcity or limited availability for your offer, such as a discount, a bonus, or a deadline. The urgency close is based on the principle of loss aversion, which means that people tend to value something more when they fear losing it or missing out on it. By creating a sense of urgency, you can motivate your prospect to act quickly and avoid procrastination or hesitation. However, you should use this technique sparingly and ethically, and only when you have a legitimate reason to do so.

One of the ways here is to offer some time-limited discounts. Use coupon codes which are expirable after certain time period. Make sure to have these discounts customisable based on the deal metrics. This creates a sense of urgency in the prospect's mind. Be mindful of not overusing this tactic as it might sound as if you are degrading the value of your product. Rather use this when you exhaust all other closing tactics.

o Fechamento de um negócio tem uma base muito forte dentro da emo??o e complexidade da venda. quanto menos complexa a venda é , mais sucetível a emo??o ela fica, fazendo com que o censo de urgência ou de ficar de fora do prazo, ou de fora da manada , faz com que a pessoa compre coisas que n?o precisa.

4 The Summary Close

The summary close is a technique that involves recapping the main benefits and value propositions of your offer, and highlighting how they match your prospect's needs, goals, and pain points. The summary close is based on the principle of repetition, which means that people tend to remember and believe something more when they hear it multiple times. By summarizing your offer, you can reinforce your message and remind your prospect of why they should buy from you. You can also use this technique to address any remaining objections or questions that your prospect may have.

All the deals should carry this practice of summarising the things discussed so far on the deal. As a good practice it is advised to share the minutes of meeting after every call which is a part of that particular deal. This helps the sales rep to keep a track of all the points in real time. These tactics leave a lasting impression about your customer service, product and ownership skill.

5 The Question Close

The question close is a technique that involves asking your prospect a direct or open-ended question that invites them to confirm their purchase decision, such as "Are you ready to move forward with this?" or "What would it take for you to say yes today?". The question close is based on the principle of involvement, which means that people tend to feel more committed and engaged when they participate in the conversation and express their opinions. By asking your prospect a question, you can elicit their feedback and objections, and also give them a sense of control and ownership over the decision.

Closing a sale is not a one-size-fits-all approach, but a skill that requires adaptability, empathy, and persuasion. By using these effective closing techniques, you can increase your chances of winning more deals and growing your sales pipeline.

In every deal make sure to ask the prospects about the next steps. Use questions like if I were to solve your X pain point today, will you be sign up by tomorrow? Let the prospect know that you are serious about solving their pain points, engage them, collaborate with them. This question reflects the tactical empathy part which is a must in every crucial deal.

Tenho como experiência positiva, a prospec??o de forma transparente, de pessoa para pessoa, independente que eu esteja representando uma organiza??o e do outro lado também! Somos humanos, precisamos de pessoas que resolvam as nossas dores, o envolvimento interpessoal, desde que utilizado de forma respeitosa e n?o invasiva, pode ser muito positivo na abordagem. Como estratégia, podemos encontrar assuntos, gostos em comum, antes mesmo de se oferecer o servi?o. Você cria uma certa "intimidade" com a pessoa que está do outro lado. Inevitavelmente acontece a "quebra de gelo" e você se sente mais confortável e seguro para oferecer o produto/ servi?o.
