Objections
Objection: "I already enrolled into another course."
Asks to share feedback
“That’s great to hear! It’s awesome that you’re already working on learning new skills. How has your current course been going for you? / Is there a specific area where you feel your current course isn’t meeting your needs?”
If the customer mentions they are using another course, they say they like it in 99% of cases. Simply ask: "Are you satisfied with the services they provide?" The answer will likely be "yes." Then, ask what specifically they are satisfied with. If they provide details, tailor your argument based on what they shared. Let them know that we offer everything they have, but better and at a lower cost. If they don't provide more information, focus on the default strengths of our product.
Acknowledges that and proceeds with a pitch:
“Thanks for sharing! [Address their concerns if there are any - I understand how frustrating that can be] Many of our students were also enrolled in other courses before they found us. Our course focuses on practical, hands-on learning that helps you land clients fast. It’s currently 75% off, so it’s just 32 000 naira. And if you feel unsure after the first three sessions, we offer a full refund. Most of our students are satisfied—they earned back their investment with their very first project! You have nothing to lose, as these skills also allow you to earn money from your own country while working with international clients.”

And remember, if you're not satisfied after the first three sessions, we’ll refund you in full. You have nothing to lose.”

Negotiations
Lead: left their contact details in the form / via email / via number
It’s too expensive for me, can you give me a discount?
Currently, we have a 75% discount on the standard package, it’s the best time to buy it!
Can I have a group/family plan - discount based on quantity?
Not yet, but currently, we have 75% discount on the standard package, it’s the best time to buy it! If you are looking to buy more than 5-7 packages at once for your group/family/company, let me talk to my manager and see what kind of additional discount I can get you.
Are there any payment plans/installment fees available for the course fee? Is it a one-time payment
Not yet, but the price on the standard package is discounted till the end of the month, so it’s the best time to look into it!
Can I buy only one or two modules out of three / certain lesson(s)?
Currently, our course is designed as a comprehensive program where each module builds upon the previous one to provide a holistic learning experience. Buying only one/two without others won’t give you a deep understanding of copywriting techniques and strategies that can significantly enhance your skills. Also, currently, we have 75% discount on the standard package, so it’s the best time to buy it!
Lead: enrolled, entered payment details, but didn’t make the payment
It’s too expensive for me, can you give me a discount?
Currently, we have 75% discount on the standard package. [If it’s still too much for them, what kind of budget they have. If it’s less than 20$, then politely refuse, if it’s more, provide additional discount.
I got you, thanks, I will think about and call you back/buy on website.
[They will not, so you need to keep talking, give them more details, features]
No, I didn't search for course/ I don't know anything about this/I don't need anything
And you hear that he is about to hang up. This way you need to skip introduction, meeting, detailed offers etc. You just need to say quickly you best offer with most powerful hook like: "we got "NAME of feature" for "PRICE of feature"". You'll probably lose customer, but sometimes they continue dialogue.
