Handling objections

“I prefer texting my order.”

“Totally fine! But on Sellar you’ll see our full range and live stock - it helps avoid missing out on popular lines.”

“I don’t have time to set it up.”

“It only takes a minute - I can send you a direct link and you can be ordering straight away.”

Follow-up

If they haven’t ordered on Sellar after your first ask, gently remind them next time they place an offline order. Consistency helps build the habit.
