A Great Question ISN’T Asked Solely For Informational Purposes

Posted November 2, 2018

underestimating the power of your questions

Many times we look at questions solely as a way to get information but;

There’s quite a bit more!

Great questions allow YOU to take control of the conversation without being controlling or manipulative.

Great questions jump start emotions. Emotions get prospects off the fence.

Great questions lead your prospect on a path of self discovery instead of being exposed to a sales pitch. Which one do you think is more believable from your prospect’s perspective?

Great questions lead to better communication. Better communication leads to better relationships (Kind of important in sales, no?)

Great questions create rapport and credibility. Do you think people judge us based on the questions we ask?

I guess I could go on and on but since we’re talking about questions;

When was the last time you took a good look at the questions you’ve been asking prospects and;

Made sure they’re so good;

That they help you create some of the things I just mentioned instead of;

Only helping you get some information?

Please take a moment to think about that then;

Make a note to be more intentional with regard to the questions you’re asking!
