(ii) “Peter, I know our car is not as quick from 0-100km/h as the other make

Print these and copy each person in the sales team for future reference, practice and refinement.
(ii) Practice customer/Sales Consultant role-plays where typical objections are raised and are to be handled by either clarifying, isolating or diminishing.
