#600 - Prospect Says “We’re Doing This In-House” You’ll Say…

from 30 Minutes to President's Club | No-Nonsense Sales · host Armand Farrokh & Nick Cegelski

Jen Allen-Knuth and Nick Cegelski break down exactly what to do when a prospect tells you, “We’re going to build this in-house.” Instead of immediately defending your solution, you’ll learn how to build trust, uncover the beliefs behind their decision, and guide them toward seeing the risks of DIY for themselves. You’ll learn to: 🔎 Seek to understand before you sell: Uncover why they want to build, how far along they are, who’s involved, and what they’re already worried about before trying to change their mind. 🤝 Help them succeed with DIY first: Lower their defenses by advising them on resources, technology, success metrics, and even peer introductions before you ever pitch against the in-house option. ⚖️ Make build vs. buy impossible to ignore: Surface the hidden costs, maintenance, employee adoption, and cross-functional buy-in of building internally, then contrast those pitfalls directly with what your solution handles for them. -- You’re one step closer to President’s Club!: 💼 Selling to the C-Suite Course: https://hubs.li/Q04thbhX0 🏋 30MPC Training: https://www.30mpc.com/course/team-training 🛠 Weekly Newsletter: https://hubs.li/Q02NJQ8p0  📚 Things you can steal and use today: https://linktr.ee/30mpc_youtube
