SDRDefenders started out as a passion project to help enable, coach, teach grow and help salespeople land their first or second jobs in sales. Kyle Coleman, Nikki Ivey, Nisha Parikh Tom Boccard and I ran this as a passion project. SDRDefenders was then acquired by Pavilion. It was a lot of fun to run this and work on a passion project!

At 23, I entered sales with one belief:
“Work hard and you’ll move up.”

Office politics? Hard pass.

Then someone wiser (it was Carla Sanchez-Armora) told me,
“If you want to get promoted, you’ve gotta play the game.”

So I played. And it worked.

I kept telling myself:
“Once I get to my next company, things will be different.”

Oh, Josh.
Precious, uncorrupted Josh.

What I didn’t realize is that the closer you get to the executive floor, the more political everything becomes.

Ten years ago, if someone said politics might matter more than performance, I would’ve laughed.

Today?
That’s just Tuesday.

I’ve watched A players get sidelined while C-players with B+ politics climb enough times that you start to see the game for what it really is (or make you sick, a little of both). 

Leadership isn’t just about performing.
It’s about navigating the ecosystem around your performance.

I asked Attention to make me 2 objection handling scripts & I'm blown away at the results. 


I've been using the Attention Super Agent to surface insights from my discovery calls. 

I want to know where my self-improvement time is best spent. 

Like all sellers and sales leaders, we know we need to practice our sales skills, but there is only so much time in the day. 



My Attention Super Agent surfaced 4 different questions and concerns that I hear on discovery calls that all come back to TOO EXPENSIVE. 

What is insanely valuable is that Attention uncovered that it's often not that prospects ask for discount. 

Instead, they ask for a trial, limited engagement or otherwise try to negotiate my process. 



I asked Attention to make me sample scripts and was DELIGHTED by the scripts they shared. 

So much so that I wanted to share them with you since I'm sure I'm not the only person hearing budget objections!



📌 Scenario 1: 
"That's more than we budgeted"

Your response:

"I appreciate you sharing that. When you set the budget, what were you expecting to get for that amount? [Listen]

The question isn't whether my price fits your budget - it's whether your budget fits your goal.

If we tried to squeeze this into [their budget], I'd have to cut [specific critical elements], which means you'd get [mediocre outcome] instead of [desired outcome]. Is that a trade-off you're comfortable making?"



📌 Scenario 2: 
"Can we do a smaller pilot first?"

Your response:

"I love that you want to test this - that's smart. Here's my concern with a pilot: [specific problem] can't be solved in a pilot. You'd spend [smaller amount], get partial results, and still not know if the full approach works.

What I CAN do is this: Let's structure the engagement so that after [Phase 1 milestone], you'll have [specific deliverable] that you can use even if we don't continue. That way you're not betting the whole budget upfront, but we're also not setting you up for an inconclusive test.

Would that give you the confidence you need?"



👉 Which script can you steal and practice to help you better respond to objections?
