Four objections cover almost every deal, and almost every rep answers all four by talking. Practise the part that actually moves them: understanding what the objection is standing in front of before you answer it.
Built for sales enablement and revenue leaders. Every call is spoken in real time — not a chat transcript — and ends with a scored debrief you can replay.
These are the four axes the debrief grades, written out in full rather than summarised. Knowing them before the call is not cheating — it is the difference between practice and a test.
Did they find out what the objection actually meant before answering it? 'Too expensive' can be no budget, wrong value, or a comparison to something else entirely, and the three have different answers.
Was the answer specific and honest — a real trade-off, a real number, a real limitation acknowledged — or a feature list and a reassurance?
Did they stay level under pushback without either caving or getting defensive? Discounting unprompted, over-explaining, and arguing all count against.
Did the objection get resolved or genuinely parked with agreement on what happens next, or did the call end with it still sitting there?
The counterpart is not scripted to agree. Each of these is a real outcome the scenario can reach, ordered best to worst.
The buyer's concern was understood, answered, and the conversation moved past it.
Not resolved, but honestly acknowledged with an agreed way to settle it.
Answered but not believed. The buyer is being polite.
Discounted, over-promised, or agreed the objection was fatal. The most expensive way to end this call.
The price objection that isn't about price. Answer it with an ROI case and you will lose politely.
You are: An account executive at a compliance-automation vendor. You sent pricing on Friday for a 60-seat deployment at 84,000 a year. Your goal: Find out what is actually behind the objection before you answer it, then respond to the real thing.
Teaches: Diagnosing a price objection instead of answering it, and reshaping scope rather than cutting rate.
The incumbent is fine. Nobody switches from fine. Find the thing that isn't fine without ever criticising a competitor.
You are: An account executive at an employee-engagement platform. You have a first meeting with a People Director who already uses a well-established competitor. Your goal: Establish whether there is a real gap worth pursuing, without knocking the incumbent — and either find a wedge or exit cleanly.
Teaches: Displacing an incumbent by finding a business gap rather than a feature gap.
