Annually like Jimmy Stewart, Charlie Brown and Ralphie Parker, one of my mentors Jeffrey Gitomer offers the following advice on this over-used seasonal objection…
What’s the funniest line you could (or wish you could) drop on a client to overcome this objection? Can you top mine?
The Mild -
“Jeffrey, I JUST got your message to call you after the Holidays… and EASTER was MONTHS ago…how can you forgive me!?”
The Extra Spicy -
“Look, my grandma got run over by a reindeer, my kids caught their mom kissing Santa Claus, AND if I don’t get an appointment from you… my boss is gonna have MY chestnuts roasting over an open fire! Are you SURE you can’t meet with me!?”
Happy Holidays, Everyone!!!
