3 Ways To Encourage A Prospect To Engage In Your Sales Process
Many people out there think that as sellers we must always give way to what customers want. While there’s a grain of truth in that statement, we do aim to solve our customers’ problems after all — there comes a time when we need to stick to our process because it ends up being the most beneficial path for both parties.
In this episode of the Love Selling Hate Sales podcast, our host Josh Wagner talks about the three things that you can do to encourage a prospect to engage with you in the sales process. Most of the time they work, but if they don’t, then you probably weren’t a good fit for them anyway.

QUOTES
When you should consider politely walking away from a prospect, says Josh: "If you run in to a buyer or a prospect who really doesn't want to engage with you, they really just want a quote or a proposal or some pricing, if they're not willing to give you the little bit of time that it takes to make a solid recommendation or think through what a good solution might be, or really determine if you're a fit for what it is they're trying to solve for, then you politely walk away."
