"Your solution seems expensive, and we have tight margins to maintain."

Underlying Concerns:

• The prospect is concerned about the cost of your solution, especially since they operate in an industry with tight profit margins.
• They may feel that the upfront investment could negatively impact their bottom line without seeing an immediate return.
• The prospect may be wary of adopting solutions that don’t clearly show how they’ll either save costs or increase revenue.
• They likely need assurance that the solution will help offset the costs by boosting revenue, reducing inefficiencies, or increasing operational efficiency.

How to Tackle the Objection:

1. Acknowledge their concern about tight margins: Show empathy for their situation, recognizing that e-commerce businesses, particularly in India, need to be mindful of margins to stay competitive.
2. Highlight cost-saving and revenue-boosting features: Reassure them that your solution is focused on improving efficiency, such as reducing cart abandonment, increasing average order value, and optimizing the customer journey—all of which have a direct impact on profitability.
3. Offer tiered pricing: Emphasize that you offer tiered pricing, so they can start small and scale up based on the results they see from the platform.
4. Position the solution as a revenue driver: Suggest showing how the platform can help drive additional revenue by improving key metrics like conversion rates and customer lifetime value.
