100个帮助外贸业务员了解潜在客户痛点的探究型问题

01
什么是探究型问题（Probing Question）？

探究型问题的本质是要求对某一特定事项提供更多细节。它们通常是某一个问题的后续问题，如：Could you tell me more about that? 或 Please explain what you mean. 探究型问题是为了澄清一个观点或帮助你了解问题的根源，这样你就知道如何最好地推进销售工作。

一个成功的销售代表或外贸业务员非常重视提出探究型问题的能力。而要充分发展这种技能，首先，你必须知道什么时候该用探究型的问题来深入挖掘，另外，你必须发现和提出关于潜在客户的核心需求的问题。

在这种情况下，简单地问：tell me about your biggest challenges with your current solution，显然是不够的。你必须用后续问题进行探究，让你的潜在客户有信心分享他们面临的真正障碍。

这里有100个探究型问题的清单，你可以向买家提出这些问题，以便深入了解他们的情况并制定潜在的解决方案。

提示：下面这些问题，可以用于面对面的电话或会议中，也可以用于邮件中，你可以根据自己的情况进行修改和调整。
