45 45 Overcoming Objections Although Net2Phone features many competitive advantages, you may face questions and potential objections during the sales process. By understanding your customer’s needs and the benefits VoiceLine provides, you can effectively address their concerns. Here’s an example: Why should I pay for a telephone adapter when Vonage offers one for free? Vonage only ships hardware in the U.S., to those who have a credit card with a U.S. billing address. And, the only “free” device is a reconditioned Motorola adapter – the other devices are not free. So, if you live outside of the U.S. and receive the hardware from a third party, you may incur a charge. In addition, Vonage charges a number of fees (activation, cancellation, shipping, regulatory) that approach the cost of a telephone adapter.
