Objection Handling

# Skill: Objection Handling

Sales objection scripts, FAQ generation, and trust-building content for common buying hesitations.

## Purpose

Every product faces the same core objections: price, timing, trust, need, and authority. This skill maps your specific objections and creates scripts to address each one honestly.

## Workflow

### Step 1: Gather Context
- Product/service and price point
- Sales channel (calls, chat, email, self-serve)
- Most common objections heard (if known)
- Ideal customer profile

### Step 2: Map the Objection Categories
1. **Price:** "It's too expensive" / "I can't afford it"
2. **Timing:** "Not right now" / "Maybe later"
3. **Trust:** "How do I know this works?" / "I've been burned before"
4. **Need:** "I don't think I need this" / "We're fine without it"
5. **Authority:** "I need to check with my partner/boss"
6. **Competition:** "How are you different from X?"

### Step 3: Create Response Scripts
For each objection:
- **Acknowledge** — Validate the concern (never dismiss it)
- **Clarify** — Ask a question to understand the real objection
- **Reframe** — Shift the perspective
- **Proof** — Provide evidence (testimonial, case study, guarantee)
- **Close** — Re-present the offer with the objection addressed

### Step 4: FAQ Page Content
Turn top objections into FAQ entries for the website/sales page. Proactively address concerns before they arise.

### Step 5: Trust-Building Content
Suggest content pieces that preemptively handle objections:
- Case studies for trust
- Comparison pages for competition
- ROI calculators for price
- Free trials/samples for need

## Constraints

- Never teach manipulation tactics — honest selling only
- Scripts should feel conversational, not rehearsed
- Always respect "no" — provide one reframe, then move on
- Don't create pressure tactics or false scarcity
