How Great Techs Present Findings Without Losing the Customer

Ever presented your findings… and watched the customer go quiet? In this episode of Windshield Time, Chris Elmore and James “J-Dub” Walker unpack what really causes that reaction—and how to prevent it.

From the very first question you ask, you’re either setting context or setting a trap. If you want the customer to trust you when it matters most, you’ve got to build contrast early and deliver findings with clarity, confidence, and control.

You’ll learn how to:

-Ask better questions that build trust and uncover expectations
-Use age, maintenance, and filtration to create context
-Structure findings as a story—not a list of problems
-Separate the “meaning” conversation from the “money” conversation
-Keep control of the call while giving customers space to process
-Turn presentation anxiety into confidence and clarity

Mentioned in this episode:

-The “bomb blast” effect: why customers shut down
-The 7-step findings presentation framework
-How to avoid the “I also found…” death spiral
-The importance of linking symptoms to causes
-When to give customers space—and when to stay close
-Why you shouldn’t present findings with pricing attached
