Conversational Road Blocks
• Questions that can be answered with a “yes” or “no”
• Asking generic questions
• Not responding with enthusiasm or interest

A Lesson in Psychology
• When someone tells you about happy memories or pleasant experiences in their past they then transfer these feelings of happiness and joy onto you!
• It’s happiness by association!!!• If you find yourself struggling try to ask questions that will
provoke happy memories.

ABC…Always Be Closing
• On Preference you need to close the sale
• Ask her, “Can you see yourself in AOII letters?”
• Use this opportunity to address any questions, concerns, or misconceptions the PNM might have.
• Always remember to use “I” instead of “WE”
• Never promise a bid, but let her know YOU would like to see her on bid day.

FAB Tool Kit• Let’s all take a common
reason PNM’s join and create an open ended question we could ask to find that information.
• How we would use her answer to create FAB’s to sell AOII?

ABC Role Play• Turn to a sister and role play a
conversation where a girl just gave you an objection to AOII or states a rumor she heard on campus about AOII’s.
• Address the issue until you’re sure it’s resolved, no matter how difficult.
• Create a closing statement with “I.”
