Managers Mini-Series: How Leaders Teach Objection Handling That Sticks— Episode 4 — Dealer Talk With Jen Suzuki

Part 4 of Jen Suzuki's 4-part mini-series gives managers a simple, repeatable structure for teaching one of the most stressful skills in sales: handling customer objections.

In this episode, Jen breaks down how to coach your team through pushback without pressure — using a calm, confident, 4-step framework: Acknowledge → Reframe → Offer → Close the Gap. You'll learn exactly how to teach the structure in minutes, demonstrate both strong and weak examples, and set up fast role-plays that build confidence instead of anxiety. Jen also shares practical ways to evaluate tone, body language, pacing, and delivery using quick checklists and 10-minute coaching drills. Plus, she reveals her favorite contest ideas to keep the skill top-of-mind and drive real behavior change.

This power session helps salespeople, BDC agents, service advisors, and anyone facing customer objections turn stressful moments into calm, controlled wins.
