The author points out all the construction sites and detours, such as objections or tactical price negotiations, but also shortcuts, such as recognizing early buying signals. After all, the sales process always follows a clear structure, and knowing this structure, practicing the appropriate techniques, and applying them continuously can lead to noticeably more sales.
