I had to play this cool, otherwise he’d shut down. ‘I’m off home,’ I said lightly, standing by the car as he leaned into the back seat and scooped out more clothing. ‘Any time you fancy a cuppa, pop in. We’d love to see you.’ I thought about the strained relations between Tom and his father. ‘I’d love to see you. I'd be willing to bet he'd shut up pretty quickly about it. Click to expand. I just get annoyed with the players who want to sign their little buddies and so on, but when it comes down to it, nobody is going to give up their money to help get more talent.

Highlights

Your prospect has completely lost it. He's shouting at you over the phone, making ridiculous demands—you can hear the sound of shattering glass as he throws stuff at the walls. Your ears are ringing and you have a massive headache.
Maybe he’s just having a bad day. Maybe he thinks he has you in a corner, and can get whatever he wants. Maybe he’s just like this all the time. After a while, you can’t take it any more, and just hang up the phone. He was completely out of control—a saint would've done the same.

Except that's exactly the wrong approach:

Now, you may think it's OK to lose one client who's unhappy—but it's not. You see, when we have a good experience with a company, we tend to tell three other people about it. Positive word-of-mouth is great for business. However, someone who's displeased with a situation tells, on average, 11 people about it.—Tom Hopkins, author and sales speaker, 'How to Handle an Angry Client'

Your approach to bullies is crippling your sales game. You can’t control why the bully is the way he is, but you can control how you handle it. By giving up and making excuses, you don’t only miss out on revenue—you miss out on an opportunity to separate yourself from the salespeople who give up at the first sign of trouble.

The 2 most common reactions to bullies

The reason so many prospects resort to bullying in sales is because a lot of the time, it works. Most people have no idea how to deal with bullies, and so do one of two things:

1. Roll over

Some people just can't handle aggression. It comes out of the blue, and catches them completely off guard—they just want the yelling to end. They can't endure it any longer so they wave a white flag and give in.
Eventually, they hear themselves discounting their product into nothing, with no idea how it happened: “Yeah, you’re right … I mean … I really want to give you what you’re asking for. Please don’t tell my boss. Please don’t give us a bad review. We’ll find a way to do what you want.” They end up with a deal that actually costs their company money.

As Mark Hunter, founder of the blog The Sales Hunter, puts it, 'Discounting your price should not be part of your vocabulary or thought process. If it is you will use it, and as soon as you use it once, you’ll use it again and again.'
A bully isn’t going to magically back off and leave you alone just because you give in. You're basically telling them, “What you’re doing with me is working. Keep doing it.” You're giving the bully positive reinforcement for his behavior—encouraging him to keep making more and more outrageous demands.

2. Fight fire with fire

Others fight fire with fire, which just makes for a bigger mess: they're so convinced that they're right and the bully is wrong that they completely forget they're supposed to be making a sale.
A lot of good salespeople feel the temptation to act this way. They have Type A personalities, they’re aggressive problem-solvers who don’t like backing down. They naturally want to respond to aggression with aggression. But by yelling back at the bully, they sink to the level of the bully, sparking off a screaming match that goes nowhere and wastes everyone's time.
Don’t play the bully’s game—you’ll lose control of the situation. Even if you “win” the argument, you're losing the larger battle: getting them to buy your product. And pissed off prospects can ruin your business' reputation. They'll hang up the phone and run around bad-mouthing your company, they'll spend the next day throwing a temper tantrum and going on a Twitter rampage. They’ll find another outlet for their anger, which can do serious damage.

Kill them with kindness (or friendly strength)

The most powerful way to overcome bullies in sales is with friendliness, while also standing your ground. This position is called friendly strength— it channels both your confidence in your product and your deep domain expertise in the field.

Think of how doctors deal with scared or angry patients: “I know your arm is still stiff after the surgery, and that it's painful. But if you don't do physical therapy, you might never be able to use your arm again.”
