This might include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">The last product we have in stock<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Commit today to get a 15% discount<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">This offer is only valid till [date]<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Sign up now to get a priority in the implementation queue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>The prospect now feels as if they could miss out on something &#8211; and no one likes FOMO. So if they\u2019re likely to say yes someday, it makes sense to do it now to make sure it\u2019s not an opportunity (or deal) missed.<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>When you can offer discounts and you&#8217;re dealing with customers whose biggest problem is that they don&#8217;t have time to decide right now, this technique is golden.<\/p>\n<h2>2) The Assumptive Close<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the strategy?<\/h3>\n<p>The Assumptive Close is when you believe you\u2019ll close the deal from the moment you begin the sales interaction. Your wording will suggest that it\u2019s a &#8220;done deal&#8221;. The idea is to check in on your prospect regularly, gauge their degree of interest and objections, and determine if they&#8217;re on the same page as you.<\/p>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>This technique works because optimism and confidence can be contagious. As a result, the prospect believes the solution should be as simple to them as it is to you. Just a warning though: there\u2019s a thin line between confidence and arrogance &#8211; watch yourself.<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>The best time to use the Assumptive Close technique is when you&#8217;re dealing with familiar leads and <i>know<\/i> that your offer is a perfect fit for them. It\u2019s not one to use when you have zero relationship with your prospect, or if you\u2019re hearing repeated objections that the solution won\u2019t work for them.<\/p>\n<h2>3) The Question Close<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the strategy?<\/h3>\n<p>The concept of the Question Close technique is that asking your prospect probing questions can force them to actually explain why something does or doesn\u2019t work for them. Ask your leads things like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Why can\u2019t you proceed with this type of shipment for your customers?<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Why won\u2019t your service address this specific issue?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>These questions provide you with a far greater opportunity to demonstrate why your solution meets their requirements and will help their business. You\u2019re creating the ideal opportunity for your product to fly in and save the day. Superhero vibes. \u200d\u2640\ufe0f<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>Adopt the Question Close technique when your lead appears to be on the fence but isn&#8217;t really expressing why. Avoid using it when the prospect has said explicitly why certain features of your product don\u2019t work for them. When you do encounter resistance, make sure to ask open questions to get the info you need &#8211; \u2018why\u2019, \u2018what\u2019, \u2018how\u2019, and all that jazz.<\/p>\n<h2>4) The Summary Close<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the strategy?<\/h3>\n<p>Take some time to explain all of your product&#8217;s features and the main value points that your prospects would see. You may also utilize this time to differentiate two or three viable solutions you&#8217;re presenting, reminding your lead of all their options in one go.<\/p>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>Hearing all of the advantages at once may appear to be more powerful than the 30 minutes you&#8217;ve previously spent going through each of them.<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>The Summary Close technique works best when you know your product is a good fit for your lead, and all they need is a brief reminder of how and why it would work for them. This method is probably one to avoid if your conversation has been limited, or the prospect has made it clear your solutions aren\u2019t impactful enough for them.<\/p>\n<h2>5) The Sharp Angle Close<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the strategy?<\/h3>\n<p>Some prospects frequently request price discounts or add-ons because they know they have an advantage in the sales process. They also know that you expect it.<\/p>\n<p>To deal with these seasoned negotiators, use the Sharp Angle Close to catch them off guard. If you have approval, give them what they want \u2014 but at a cost: &#8220;Yes, I can give you six months of service for 15% off if you sign the contract today\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>This technique works because you give them something you\u2019ve been willing to do in exchange for a strong commitment and a quick sale.<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>The Sharp Angle Close is one for the prospects who are easily sold or who demand incentives to sign. On the other hand, it\u2019s better to avoid this technique when your prospect is unfamiliar with sales nuances and doesn\u2019t request any special deals.<\/p>\n<h2>6) The Puppy Dog Close<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the strategy?<\/h3>\n<p>This technique is based on the concept that people who walk into a pet store and hold puppies are the ones that are most likely to buy them. You can use this style of close in a variety of industries, for example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Offer a free trial if your product is a software or a tool<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Offer a test drive if you\u2019re selling cars<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Why does it work?<\/h3>\n<p>When people start using the product, the benefits you promised them become tangible and, ideally, they discover that they actually can&#8217;t live without your product.<\/p>\n<h3>Best time to use it<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s best to use the Puppy Dog Close technique when it\u2019s challenging to measure your product\u2019s features over the phone or via email. Steer clear of this technique if a \u2018test drive\u2019 or a free trial isn\u2019t relevant to your product.<br \/>\n    <div class=\"post-banner post-banner--base\">\n        <div class=\"post-banner__wrapper\">\n            <div class=\"post-banner__text\">\n                                    <p class=\"post-banner__title\">Your unfair sales advantage<\/p>\n                                    <p class=\"post-banner__subtitle\">Grab your prospects' attention with insights from Similarweb Sales Intelligence<\/p>\n                                <div class=\"post-banner__button-wrapper\">\n                                            <a class=\"swui-button swui-button--solid swui-button--primary post-banner__button js-post-banner\"\n                           href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/corp\/contact-us\/?solution=sales\"\n                           data-disable-dynamic-tracking\n                        >Book a live demo<\/a>\n                                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/p>\n<h2>4 tips to close a sale quickly<\/h2>\n<p><b>Here are four additional closing sales tips that can help you use these closes even better.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<h3>1) Identify the decision-maker<\/h3>\n<p>Identifying the decision-maker is one of the most crucial steps to closing a B2B sale quickly. In most cases, decision-makers assign the task of learning what you have to offer to someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, getting a decision-maker on the call is the fastest way to close the deal. So make an effort to tailor your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/sales\/consultative-selling\/perfect-sales-pitch\/\">sales pitch<\/a> to that person\u2019s interests and do all you can to arrange a meeting with that individual. You\u2019ve got this. <\/p>\n<h3>2) Be real and use empathy<\/h3>\n<p>A client can tell whether you\u2019re being sincere during the sales process. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s critical to show the customer that you care about their company, not just the contract.<\/p>\n<p>Coming across as too calculated might turn people off, but being prepared is not a bad thing either. So (before you answer a customer&#8217;s objection), empathize with them, show them that you care, repeat and maybe even summarize their concerns, and only then provide your answer. This will help you build rapport and put your prospect at ease.<\/p>\n<h3>3) Create a sense of urgency<\/h3>\n<p>But at the same time, you <i>do <\/i>have targets to hit. Once you and your prospect know that your product is indeed right for them, there\u2019s nothing wrong with a little nudge in the right direction. Applying a deadline to your offer will help motivate your prospect to commit, or even better: apply a discount or free-trial on a limited time so they can\u2019t help resist.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn&#8217;t mean you should rush the consumer. Instead, strive to give them one more reason to get your product or service right now.<\/p>\n<h3>4) Overcome objections<\/h3>\n<p>Most prospects will have a set of objections that they\u2019ll throw your way during the sales conversation. A great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/sales\/b2b-sales\/what-is-sales-strategy\/\">sales strategy<\/a> is to identify the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/sales\/b2b-sales\/handling-sales-objections\/\">common objections<\/a> in your industry beforehand, and tailor your sales pitch to overcome any of these concerns your prospect may have.<\/p>\n<p>To help with this, we strongly recommend getting with your sales team and having each member brainstorm potential objections. Spend some time planning how to effectively overcome these objections during the sales process. And hey presto, when an objection comes up during your next sales conversation, you will be fully prepared to answer it.<\/p>\n<h2>Seal your next sales deal<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you know the best way to close sales, it\u2019s time to implement these techniques and tips into your sales cycle. Look at your existing sales pipeline and see which one of these closing sales techniques would work for them. Practice your objection handling with your sales team by role-playing and consider using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/corp\/sales\/\">sales analytics tools<\/a> to listen to a few of your calls every month.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, make sure you carefully tailor your interactions to engage your prospects. You\u2019re not only dealing with humans here, you\u2019re dealing with humans that have an influx of sales messages flying into their inbox on a daily basis.
