Objection Handling Skill
When to Use
- Prospects push back on timing, budget, priority, or vendor choice.
- SDRs/AEs need concise, value-first rebuttals for email, phone, or social.
- Enablement teams are building battlecards and talk tracks.
Framework
- LACE – Listen, Acknowledge, Clarify, Educate for every objection.
- Diagnosis – identify category (budget, timing, competition, info) and root cause.
- Response Construction – combine empathy statement + proof + CTA for next step.
- Channel Adaptation – adapt scripts for email, call, social with same backbone.
- Feedback Loop – log outcomes in objection tracker to refine messaging.
Templates
- Common objection table with diagnosis + recommended responses.
- Email snippet:
Hi {name}, totally hear you on {objection}. Many {persona}s said the same until they saw {proof point}.
How about we {next step} so you can evaluate without interrupting your week?
- Call script snippets (“If {metric} improved by 15%, would it merit a closer look?”).
- Battlecard snippets and micro case studies linked per objection.
Tips
- Mirror the exact language the prospect used before responding.
- Ask one clarifying question before presenting proof—often the real objection surfaces.
- Tailor proof to persona (finance → ROI, ops → efficiency, IT → security).
- Track objection frequency weekly to inform marketing content and enablement.
