How One Sales Rep Won a Deal by Asking for a Non-Monetary Cost
from Closing the Deal with Fexingo: Sales, Negotiation, and Revenue Conversations for Operators · host Fexingo
Episode 41 dives into a counterintuitive sales tactic: making the buyer pay with something other than money. Lucas and Luna break down a real case where a SaaS rep closed a seven-figure deal by asking the prospect to assign two engineers to the implementation — a non-monetary cost that signaled commitment and weeded out tire-kickers. They discuss the psychology of 'skin in the game,' how to identify non-monetary costs that are valuable to you but low-cost to the buyer, and the risk of asking too early. This episode offers a practical framework for incorporating non-monetary asks into your closing process, with specific examples from B2B sales, consulting, and even consumer services. If you're tired of discounting or losing deals to indecisive buyers, this angle gives you a new lever to pull without touching the price. #NonMonetaryCost #SalesTactic #DealClosing #SaaS #EnterpriseSales #Negotiation #B2B #Business #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #ClosingTheDeal #SalesPsychology #Commitment #SkinInTheGame #Revenue #SalesStrategy #LucasAndLuna #PodcastEpisode Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
