They told you the problem in the first two minutes. It's not the real problem. The surface complaint is a symptom — and every great salesperson knows the diagnosis lives three questions deeper.
You're peeling back layers now — each question goes deeper, each answer reveals more. The client is starting to articulate problems they hadn't fully formed yet, and that's exactly where value lives.
There it is — the thing that keeps them up at night, the pain that has a dollar amount attached to it. You just found the stake in the ground, and everything you propose needs to be anchored here.
