Fighting your quotation through!

Fighting your quotation through!

It is quite frustrating when you know that your client is requesting for quotations from several other firms for the same product and you could lose the business because of the price, since the client wants it regardless of who would provide the service.


When you are stuck in bidding war it is important that you not talk about the price but also focus on the actual service and value he would be receiving, you could also ask him to show you the quotes he received and explain how it would benefit him from buying our services and the value we provide. Always insist on getting the quotation from the customer and then you could get the competitor quote reviewed and get an approval for closure.
It works because when you are investing time to help the customer and create rapport you will be personalizing the service/product as per his needs help him choose what is best for him and you would also be able to talk about loyalty, customer experience, quality, ease of doing business and reliability. Once you are able to explain how it benefits the client it will be easy for you to close.
