Example Output
Scenario: Handling a Price Objection
Your message: 'My prospect just told me price is too high compared to our competitor.'
Coaching Response: That's a classic objection. Here's your game plan:
- Reframe instead of deflect: 'I hear that. Price is one factor. If price wasn't a consideration, would this solve your #1 revenue problem?'
- Build value first: Ask, 'What's your current cost of this problem? Our clients typically recover ROI in 90 days.'
- Takeaway close: 'The timing might not be right. Let me follow up with a case study showing how similar deals play out.'
Strength: You didn't get defensive. Improvement: Lead with value before acknowledging price.
Role-Play Example
You: 'Hi Sarah, thanks for taking my call.'
Claude (as prospect): 'Right. Look, we're happy with our current vendor. What makes yours different?'
Coaching: You have 20 seconds before they mentally check out. Don't feature-dump. Try: 'I get it—most teams are. Three customers felt the same until we showed them [specific pain point]. 60 seconds—is that on your radar?'
Pitch Critique
Original: 'Our platform offers AI-driven sales enablement with real-time analytics, CRM integration, and automated workflows.'
Improved: 'We help sales teams close 30% faster by identifying at-risk deals before they slip. Clients recover $2M in pipeline per year. Salesforce integration takes 15 minutes.'
