Will You Pass the Flinch Test?

Right after a lengthy getting approach, the time has come to submit pricing. Numerous hours are spent formulating a glorious proposal that specifics your extensive solution. Proud of your accomplishment, you present the proposal towards the buyer. Skipping the sections about your business as well as your solution, she flips correct to the pricing page. Oh my gosh, I didnt believe it will be this pricey!

What takes place next determines no matter whether or not you are going to get the business. When I say get the business, you can find two sides to think about. The clear is whether or not the prospect will award the business to you. The less apparent is whether your company will agree to their desired price tag level. The negotiation may get to a point where the prospect says they need to award you the enterprise, but at a price tag unacceptable for your business. If youve ever been there, it is painful to say the least. As a sales person, you've got a responsibility to facilitate the approach within a way that leads to a mutually acceptable conclusion.

There is certainly a trade secret within the buying globe. They call it the flinch test. This can be the test Procurement Agents along with other professional buyers give to sales people when they provide pricing. Wow! You're 25% higher than your competition. These pros are trained to react with surprise so that they could see if the sales particular person is confident in the cost they've put forward. It really is nothing at all more than a straightforward negotiation tactic. Frequently instances, they overstate the price tag difference such that you could do some fast math and see that the differential is bogus. I can recall a time where I was told that we had been 50% higher than the competition. When I reviewed the numbers, this meant that the competitor was losing 18% depending on fixed expenses that we each had. It was extremely unlikely that the competitor was signing up for this kind of an account. When I asked the Procurement Agent about that figure yet again, he flinched and we ultimately won the enterprise.

The important to passing the flinch test would be to respond with self-assurance in your value. In case you dont feel you might be providing a fair, competitive price tag for the resolution, my question is why are you presenting it anyway? A single would hope that you have integrity so why present a thing you dont think in?

Some responses that trigger you to fail the flinch test.

What value had been you seeking for?
I'll ask my manager if we are able to do better.
How about if I take 10% off?

The purpose these are failed responses is that they develop trust concerns using the prospect. Had been you wanting to rip them off using the price tag you presented? Certainly one of two things is true. Either you had been attempting to rip them off or you think you offered a fair price. What other choice is there? Some will say that they were preparing for a negotiation. That's a fair point; even so, it's a terrible negotiation method to offer the look that you simply will drop your price tag 1st moment someone balks. That approach offers the impression that you sought to gouge them.

Most negotiations end at the middle ground. They wanted 5; you wanted ten and settled at 7.5. That appears logical. Nevertheless, in case you lower your value early, the middle ground is lower. Within the very same situation, should you dropped to 8 correct off the bat, the middle becomes 6.5. As I mentioned, you've got to handle the negotiation such that the middle just isn't lower than an acceptable price for your company.

Profitable sales individuals possess a planned, or dare I say canned, response for the flinch test. They dont count on a prospect to respond with excitement about a cost. They anticipate shock and have a method to handle it. Here are their secrets

1. They set expectations upfront. Early in the getting approach, they set the expectation that they're not the low price tag provider. To be clear, our organization is rarely the low bid, does that imply that we wont be working together on this project? If they say no, you are set for the later phases of the approach. If they say yes, at the very least you havent invested a ton of time in an account that you simply wont win. Should you are going to shed, lose early.

2. They dont flinch! Im not surprised by your reaction. I get that a great deal. As I mentioned at the outset, we are hardly ever the low bidder.

3. They seek to understand. When you say that you are shocked by the value, which portion is surprising? This can be the subject of yet another write-up of mine which addresses the significance of understanding the prospect's viewpoint of price.

4. They reinforce their position. 'since we are hardly ever the low price provider, what do you consider our 1000 consumers see that leads them to pay just a little far more to possess us?

A lot of years ago, I had the chance to participate in Procurement Coaching. Consider it as sales education for buyers. After the session, I had an fascinating conversation using the trainer. Here's what he told me

For 25 years, sales folks asked me for coaching on the price tag of their proposal as I was the head of Procurement for my business. I told every among them exactly the same factor. Offer us with the greatest price that you just really feel good about providing and either way, you win. I often got a puzzled expression from that. Let me explain. If we award the business to you at that cost, you're satisfied. If we award the business to someone else at a lower price, you are content too since you wouldnt happen to be content to assistance the account at that price tag point.

To share a bit secret, I use the flinch test all of the time when I purchase. It's remarkable how swiftly sales folks drop their drawers on value. I bet Ive saved my loved ones 20% across the board for all of our spending just with that test. It's no wonder that skilled buyers use this. I typically wonder how numerous commission dollars were lost just because they flinched. How might commission dollars have you lost simply because you flinched?
