Objection responses
We are happy with our current suppliers and do not want to change.
That makes sense. Aside from price, what would you need to see from us to consider making a change?
Your price is too high.
I understand. What are you comparing our price with? Once I understand that, we can check whether the scope and service are like for like and what evidence would justify any difference.
Send me some information.
Of course. Which question should the information answer, and which product or requirement should I focus on? I will send the relevant details. Would a short review be useful, or would you prefer to come back when you have assessed them?
