## Resource

In this episode, Brandon breaks down why pushback is not something closers fear. It is something they use. Pushback reveals engagement, exposes the real buying process, surfaces hidden friction, and creates better next steps. The best reps turn resistance into deal intelligence, and the best leaders coach teams to do the same.
