Most sellers don't lose deals at the close. They lose them at the objection — and they lose them because they treat objections as **walls** instead of **windows**.

A wall is something you push against. A window is something you look through to see what's actually happening on the other side.

When a $7,500 prospect says *"It's too expensive,"* the three losing responses are:

1. **Defend the price** ("But look at all the value…")
2. **Drop the price** ("I could do $5K…")
3. **Disappear** ("Okay, no problem, let me know!")

All three signal the same thing: you don't know what they actually meant. "Too expensive" is almost never about expense. Decades of negotiation literature — from Chris Voss's *Never Split the Difference* to Oren Klaff's *Pitch Anything* — converge on the same point: stated objections rarely match underlying concerns. "Too expensive" is usually one of five root causes: perceived risk, unclear ROI, internal politics, prior burn, or a missing decision-maker.

The script that wins is not the one that *answers* the objection — it's the one that *diagnoses* it in under two questions.

That's what this guide builds.
