The Ben Franklin Close

“You know I understand how hard it is to make
a decision, so here’s my suggestion: Let’s weigh the positives and negatives of this situation. If the negatives outweigh the positives, don’t do invest, but if the positives outweigh the negatives, do it.

Q

The Scarcity Close

A

“As you are aware, there’s a limited availability of
this specific product, the one you want. A huge
demand in the marketplace, and I want to be
certain John, that I’m able to get you what you
want. So look, I need to get this paperwork done,
which means I need your approval here, here,
and here, and I also need to know the delivery
date that I can install, okay. Let’s do this now.”

Q

The Puppy Dog Close

A

“Hey let me suggest that you go ahead and
take it home tonight. We go ahead and get it
installed. And when you wake up tomorrow,
you decide whether it’s the right thing for you
to have done or not. If you decide it’s not, we
come back and pick it up. Or you can bring it
back. And no problems. At least you will have
had the experience of having it in your home.”

exactly the same way until I found out that I
don’t have another one coming in. The price
will not get lower. And the bottom line is you
need it, and you need it now man. Let’s go
ahead and do this. I need your full legal name
right here by owner.”
