Establishing Needs

In this module, you will learn about asking the right questions, the difference between closed questions and open questions, and the importance of open-ended questions that begin with the letter W… what, where, when, which and also how.

Selling Products

Providing more than one option to choose from helps the customer make an informed decision. From this, you can narrow it down to the most appropriate and a lower number of options may help you to upsell your product.

Handling Objections

In this module, you will learn how objections are ways through which the customer hints that there is something not quite right with the product, and how open-ended questions can help handle price objections positively.

Closing the Sale

The close of the sale is the stage where your customer makes the decision to buy your product. The whole purchasing process and experience will make a lasting impression on the service provider.
