6 Step Reframe - Objection Handling
The 6 Step Reframe pattern in NLP is used to communicate directly with parts of the unconscious mind that have a positive intention whilst simultaneously having a negative impact on the individual’s behaviour.

Neurological Levels Rapport

NLP Presuppositions for Salespeople
If you are going to communicate with congruence and integrity, it is vital that the thoughts going on in the back of your mind do not conflict with the words that are coming out of your mouth.

Get Over Rejection In Sales
Learning how to get over rejection in sales is one of the most challenging elements of the job, especially for new salespeople. The very nature of the job means that you are going to hear ‘no’ more than most people, and all of that negativity can have an impact on a person’s confidence. Unless you can find a way to get past the feeling of rejection, your sales career is going to be cut s...

Gatekeepers and Objections
One of the biggest challenges salespeople have is the eternal battle of good versus gatekeeper. No matter how prepared you are, how strong your product offering or how much benefit you can provide for this particular prospect, there will often be a gatekeeper standing between you and the decision maker. By the description many sales people give about gatekeepers, you would think G...
