So, what makes this idea so important? A large reason why this is so important is because if we, as a seller, bring up something that wasn\u2019t even asked about we could cause doubt in a potential buyer\u2019s mind. A potential buyer may think \u201cWhy didn\u2019t he bring this up before?\u201d, or \u201cCould this end up being a potential problem in the end?\u201d. Furthermore, by bringing up unasked questions a prospect may become so uneasy that they may end up saying they are completely uninterested in your product or service all together.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/toonclips.com\/600\/cartoon-salesman-holding-a-contract-by-toonaday-10215.jpg\" alt=\"Image result for cartoon salesman\" width=\"210\" height=\"217\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 210px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 210\/217;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The reason why answering unasked questions becomes a problem is because many people begin to talk when they feel like they are in an awkward situation. Most people don\u2019t enjoy sitting in silence, but in some cases sitting in a quite room and keeping your mouth shut is the best move. Don\u2019t let a little feeling of awkwardness make you blurt out something that could potentially ruin a deal you may have just made. Be sure to always stay on task listening to your prospects problems and then figuring out how your product or business can solve those problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One fundamental part of selling is to never answer unasked questions.
