![Page 26: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Four Question Categories
1. Direct
2. Nondirective
3. Rephrasing
4. Redirect questions
![Page 27: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
10-27
The Direct Question Can be answered with a few words such
as: “Mr. Jones, is reducing manufacturing
costs important to you?” “What kind?” “How many?”
Never phrase as a direct negative or a question that can cut you off Example: “May I help you?”
![Page 28: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
10-28
The Direct Question Limitations
Does not really tell you much There is little feedback information
![Page 29: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
10-29
The Nondirective (Or Open-Ended) Question
Begins with who, what, where, when, how, or why “Who will use this product?” “What features are you looking for in a
product like this?”
Its purpose is to obtain unknown or additional information
![Page 30: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
10-30
The Rephrasing Question Is useful if you are unclear and need to
clarify the meaning of something said “Are you saying that price is the most
important thing you are interested in?” “Then what you are saying is, if I can
improve the delivery time, you would be interested in buying?”
![Page 31: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
10-31
The Redirect Question Used to change the direction of the
conversation – often from a negative to a positive
Imagine you walk into a prospect’s office, introduce yourself, and get this response: “I’m sorry, but there is no use in talking. We are
satisfied with our present suppliers. Thanks for coming by.”
A redirect question would be: “Wouldn’t you agree that you continually need to find
new ways to increase your company’s sales?”
![Page 32: Chp 10 Strategic Presenting](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062704/555ce146d8b42aeb2c8b58b9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
10-32
Three Rules for Using Questions
1. Use only questions that you can anticipate the answer to or that will not lead you into a situation from which you cannot escape
2. Pause or wait after submitting a question
3. Listen
