What is inside

The objections SEs actually get

We rarely deal with the classic sales objections like “it's too expensive” or “I don't have time right now”. There are great mitigation strategies for those.

The objections we get in presales are more complex — and we need to understand where they come from. These cheat sheets give you a list of objections, questions and intel on what to ask.

These cheat sheets help you:

Recognise what is really behind a technical objection
Ask questions that reframe the concern
Position your solution without getting defensive
Collect insights you can reuse in the business case
Why this resource exists

Objections are information in disguise

An objection in a demo is the moment your customer tells you what actually matters to them. Most of us treat it as an attack instead of a gift.

I collected the objections that come up again and again in demos and POCs and the questions that turn them into progress.
