Have you ever been perfectly executing a sales process, only for the seller to ask one simple question that completely derails the entire conversation? When a seller asks, "How did you get my number?" or demands an immediate offer, the natural instinct is to panic, over-explain, and completely surrender control of the call. In this tactical solo episode, Tiffany High breaks down her three-step "Reflect and Redirect" framework. You will learn exactly how to acknowledge a seller’s concern, give a brief and truthful answer, and instantly take back the steering wheel of the negotiation. Stop acting like an encyclopedia for your sellers and start leading your calls like a true sales professional.
