Counter Talk: Handling Objections Without Panicking
A playful sales role-play session for women in business.
Your next potential client shouldn’t be the first person you practise your sales conversations with.
Counter Talk is a low-pressure space where women in business can practise talking about their offers, responding to potential clients and building their sales skills together.
For our first session, we’re tackling:
Handling objections without panicking 😬
You’ll be paired with another woman in business and take turns playing the business owner and potential client.
Using sales scenarios and objection cards, you’ll practise listening, responding and confidently guiding the conversation towards a next step.
Then you’ll give each other useful feedback, rotate partners and try again.
What we’ll practise
Talking about your offer clearly
Listening to what a potential client is really asking
Responding to questions and objections
Talking about value without becoming defensive
Making the next step clear
Becoming more comfortable using your voice in sales conversations
How the session works
🥐 Welcome to the Counter 🎭 Paired sales role-play 💬 Supportive feedback 🔄 Rotate partners 🗣️ Practise again
This isn’t a webinar, networking free-for-all or sales competition.
It’s a place to learn by doing: try the words, receive feedback, adjust and try again.
What to bring
Bring one product, service or offer you want to practise talking about.
You don’t need a polished pitch or prepared sales script. Just bring your offer and a willingness to play.
Who it’s for
Counter Talk is for women in business who want to become more comfortable talking about what they sell—including women who feel awkward, nervous or inexperienced when sales conversations begin.
