Refocusing
• Refocusing: The process of getting
prospects to understand our value
proposition even when they have their own
idea of why they should buy
• Refocusing supports Reframing

Refocusing
• You abandon Reframing
• You sell to “their reasons”
• You lose control of the process
• They go dark
• You are shocked
• You don’t think it’s your fault

know it

Refocusing
• In the end “their reason” is almost never
enough to get them to buy or choose you.
• You have abandon our sales process
discipline

• You think this one’s different

• Have you uncovered additional pain?
• Do they understand your “Super Power”?
• Have you reframed the prospect?

cost less)

Examples

can solve the issue.
• Issue doesn't tip The Balance
• Their vendor will commit to change
• Everybody stuff can solve pain
• Your Super Power is not an advantage
