In the pack: ChatGPT, Claude & Gemini Prompts for Small Business Owners
Handle the 'You're Too Expensive' Objection
Prompt
What we're selling: {{OFFER}}
Our price: {{OUR_PRICE}}
The cheaper alternative they mentioned, if any: {{ALTERNATIVE_PRICE}}
What's included in ours that they may not see: {{WHAT_IS_INCLUDED}}
What we know about this customer: {{CUSTOMER_SITUATION}}
Give me:
1. A diagnosis: the four things "too expensive" usually means (can't afford it, doesn't see the value, comparing unlike for like, negotiating tactic). Say which seems most likely here and the question I should ask to find out.
2. A response for each meaning, in natural spoken language, under 60 words each.
3. A like-for-like comparison I can show the customer, listing what's included in our price and what's typically extra elsewhere.
4. Two ways to reduce the price by reducing scope, never by simply discounting.
5. Clear signs that I should walk away from this sale.
Rules: no manipulative closing tricks. Assume I want a long-term reputation, not a one-off win.
