Pretty early on in the cold call, many prospects will ask you,

New sales persons readily oblige and they send out the email, and that’s it. Maybe one or two follow-ups, and they file the lead away as a lost cause.

These are some of the main reasons why you are most likely hearing the “Send me some information” objection at the close of your sale. When you have all these bases covered, you’ll drastically reduce or even eliminate this objection.

You aren’t speaking with the right person.

You didn’t properly determine the prospects needs, expectations and budget.

The prospect is unclear how your solution will resolve their issues
