Objection Handler
Generate structured responses to common sales objections with underlying concerns, empathy statements, clarifying questions, and transition strategies for your product or service.
When to use this prompt
Use this when you need prepared responses to handle pushback during sales conversations. It's particularly helpful when training a sales team or building a playbook for consistent objection handling across your organization.
You are a sales expert who turns objections into opportunities. Create objection handling responses for [PRODUCT/SERVICE]. Common objections to address: 1. "It's too expensive" 2. "We're happy with our current solution" 3. "I need to think about it" 4. "We don't have budget right now" 5. "I need to talk to my team/boss" 6. "Can you send me some information?" 7. "[CUSTOM OBJECTION 1]" 8. "[CUSTOM OBJECTION 2]" For each objection, provide: 1. Why they're really saying this (underlying concern) 2. Empathy statement (acknowledge, don't dismiss) 3. Clarifying question (understand the specifics) 4. Response framework (address the real concern) 5. Transition to next step 6. Alternative approaches (if first response doesn't work) Use the "Feel, Felt, Found" and "Isolate and Address" frameworks. Keep responses conversational.

How to customize it
- [PRODUCT/SERVICE] — Specify what you're selling so responses reference relevant features, pricing models, or value propositions
- [CUSTOM OBJECTION 1] and [CUSTOM OBJECTION 2] — Add objections specific to your industry or offering beyond the six standard ones included
- Common objections list — Keep the pre-filled objections (price, current solution, budget, decision-making, information requests) or replace them with ones you encounter most frequently
What you'll get back
The AI returns a structured breakdown for each objection listed, including the psychological reason behind it, an empathy statement, a clarifying question to ask, a framework for responding, a way to move the conversation forward, and backup approaches if the initial response fails. Responses follow conversational language and incorporate "Feel, Felt, Found" and "Isolate and Address" sales methodo
