Why do so many coaches freeze up when faced with a sales objection? In this episode of Profit Made Simple, Dan Henderson is joined once again by the sales expert himself, Kevin Frazier, to break down the art of objection handling—without sounding pushy or desperate. Together, they unpack the psychology behind objections like “I need to think about it,” “I don’t have time,” and “I need to talk to my partner,” showing how these are often just signals of deeper concerns. You’ll learn how to lead sales conversations with empathy, curiosity, and clarity, guiding prospects to self-discover why your offer is the solution they need.
From practical strategies like the three-step objection handling framework, to powerful go-to lines and pre-handling techniques, this episode arms you with everything you need to turn hesitation into commitment. Whether you're a gym owner, coach or fitness professional, these insights will help you close more sales with confidence and integrity.
