Needs discovery, service propositions, evidence of capability, fee communication, objections and ethical conversion.

Core concepts

A proposition should connect a defined service and delivery method to a client need and credible evidence of capability.
Exam cue: Confirm understanding and next steps instead of treating a presentation as consent.

Concept 4
Objections should be explored and answered accurately without pressure, unsupported promises or denigration of competitors.
