The Closer’s Survival Guide: Over 100 ways to ink the deal by Grant Cardone

Learn to close and you will never be without work or without money!

The most powerful arsenal of closes ever! This book covers over 120 Closes includes: 31 Money Closes, 17 Time Related Closes, 3 Pressure Closes, 3 Agreement Closes, 8 Decision Closes, and another 64 of the most creative closes you will ever find in one book! Financial “Closing” is the final step in the pursuit of ANY goal. This thing called closing is not just something that sales people do but something that applies to every person. Nothing truly happens until you are able to engender the support, energy and resources of others. As harsh as it may seem the close is what separates those who have from those who don’t have. This critically and vital ability is what differentiates the dreamer from the exceptional individual that makes dreams come true.

The world is filled with people who have grand dreams of new products or ideas that will change the world that never become reality simply because the dreamer couldn’t close others on supporting their dream. The world is abundant with grand ideas and big dreams and short on people who can close others on funding, supporting and getting behind them! It is the ability to close that makes a difference more than any other skill you will learn in life!

Grant Cardone’s book, The Closer’s Survival Guide, is not a theory of closing the deal, but exactly HOW to close the deal including the 20 major rules of closing and over 120 exact closes that you can use every day!

2nd Baseman Close #1

Do it for me close

Sir, if you can’t do it for you, and can’t do it for your wife, or your company, then I’m going to ask you to do it for me. I’ll need your okay on the agreement, here.

Inventory close – Move down

Would you consider the product right under this? That would save you $XX,XXX, reduce the payment by X per month,..OR would you rather get exactly what you want and pay a little more?

Inventory close – Move up

Before I write this up, I want to share with you that if we move from the 800XP to the 7000XP, it would only be an added cost of $X,XXX, and would only change your monthly payment by $XXX. Would you consider this?

Selection alternative close

If the payments are too high, I suggest we go back and consider the model earlier. It won’t have X, Y, Z and all the things you said were important, BUT it would put you in a position to get what you want and you could later upgrade.

Package alternative close

If you don’t want to go down a model, and you won’t consider something 1 year older, why don’t we move down just a package? You would only have to give up these 2 options, but it would save you X and reduce your monthly payment by Z.

Payment breakdown close

Sir, we’re already less than $500 a month, the amount you want to pay. Breakdown the payments: the machine is $12K with a monthly payment of $350, the NitroFlush has a monthly payment of $100, the upgraded motor payment is $85 and $45 for taxes. So, A) we can remove the extras and the payments are only $350, B) You pay cash for the extras and your payment is still $395 which is the product you wanted plus taxes, or C) Get the extras, Keep your cash, pay the extra $3 per day to get exactly what you want. Now personally, I would go with option #3 and keep my cash. Which would you like to do?

I go through the same thing myself. I know what I want, I go out and find it. When it comes time to make a final decision, I get scared everytime!

Able close

Do the right thing close #1

[Stall] I want you to do the right thing. And if you don’t think this is the right thing, I certainly don’t want you to do it. I want you to do the right thing as I trust that you are a person that prides himself on always doing the right thing. If this purchase doesn’t fit under the right things, then I don’t want you to do it; BUT i don’t believe that to be the case. Let’s do this, if you think it’s the right thing. If not, tell me what is not right?

Do the right thing close #2

I want you to do the right thing as I trust that you are a person that prides himself on always doing the right thing. You have built a life of right actions & decisions.

Scarcity close

As you are aware there is a limited availbility of this machine, there is a huge demand for the product and I want to insure that you are able to get what you want. So let’s get the paperwork done so I can insure that you are able to get one before the shipping container fills up. Let’s do this!

Take away close

Let me suggest that you don’t do this right now. If you come back tomorrow, take some time, take the night to think about it, and you come back tomorrow. If somebody already steps up and the machine is spoken for, you would have to take that as a sign from the coffee gods that it wasn’t meant for you. [Sit back in chair and WAIT]

First or last close

The reality is that you’re either going to buy this now or you’re going to buy this later. But you know that you need this, and you know you are going to do it sooner or later.

Sign here and here; we’ll leave it up to the lender.

Puppy dog close

Let me suggest that you take delivery and try it out for a month. At the end of the month, you decide whether it’s the right thing for you or not. If you decide it’s not, then ship it back and no problem.

I appreciate the way you feel, I’ve felt EXACTLY the same way…UNTIL I found out that….(the price isn’t getting any lower, we don’t have more inventory coming in, that there is NEVER a best time)

Quality Close

I know it’s more money than you considered, I know it’s more money than your business partner considered. And I would expect that is EXACTLY the same thing that happens to the both of you when you buy any products. It is obvious, you are people that examplify quality, you buy quality goods, you live in quality, you wear quality, and you know that quality products cost more than other products. Now let’s get this done so you can start benefitting from it now.

Now or never close

This is the offer I’m making you for right this moment in time, and it is a now or never offer, as I will not be able to make it available tonight, tomorrow, or even later today. Because we have an incentive available to us right now, I am able to offer you this right now. And John, it expires when you leave here. Look, let’s do this so you can take advantage of the incentives I’m being provided right now.

Done everything possible close

I have done everything possible…

Get more done close

[Stall] John, the sooner we get this done, the more you will be free to get other things done and the more time to concentrate on those things not yet done. Let’s do this so you can get on with doing all the other things that require your attention.

Handshake close

You know it serves your needs, you know you can afford it, it’s only a matter of time before you do it. Let’s get this done. [Reach out with open hand and shut up]

Additional service close

While I have done everything I can do for you on the money, I am willing to offer you additional service beyond what we and I would normally commit to, like; annual free service checks, personal visits, re-training & instructions for new-hires & new-users of the machine, a weekly/monthly call to make sure you are getting what you need from your investment. But what I need from you is a signature here on the agreement.

Pressure close #1

[Are you pressuring me?] Not yet, but trust me, I am willing to resort to pressure to get this done tonight. I need your approval here.

Pressure close #2

[You pressuring me?] Please don’t confuse my enthusiasm, my insistence and my confidence in my proposal with pressure. I’m confident that this is the right thing for you to do. Now let’s do this.

Pressure close #3

[Are you pressuring me?] Not yet, but don’t think I won’t resort to it. If you prove yourself capable of not making a decision, not doing the right thing for your business, not doing it tonight, don’t think that I won’t resort to pressure. Now come on man, let’s do this!

Rash decision close #1

I understand and the reality is, at this point it would be impossible to consider ANY decision you made rash. You and I have met on 3 separate occasions about this proposal. You, your staff and my people have spent hours considering all the possibilities. Sign here.

Rash decision close #2

I agree, I never make a rash decision. Saying yes right now could not be considered rash or snap. You have needed this product for years now. At this point, its not only not a rash decision, it is the most reasonable, logical and frankly the only decision you can make. Sing here.

Nothing to do with decision close

I hear you and I agree. But the reality is there are only a few reasons you won’t do this today. None of which have anything to do with your ability to make decisions or your concern about rash decisions. May I share them with you? 1) Lack of confidence in the product. 2) Price or terms are not right. 3) You don’t have confidence in me or my company. Which one is it?

Either way close

I understand, but either way you are making a decision. You’ll need to make a decision to continue with what you have, or make a decision to get what you deserve. What I mean is, either way you will spend money, all decisions cost money. The question is whether you are going to reward yourself with something that you need, you want and that you deserve?
