Any suggestion for resistance training?

If we are to train a sales person to face the resistance from the customers, what are the issues that we must put into our training session so that they could handle the situation?

How about identifying the source of resistance and removing or reducing it. If that doesn't work how about preemting common resistance in the sales call.

Cool 

Don't focus on the resistance. As per Agent Smith, focus on pre-empting the resistance and/or use it for what it is, a buying signal. You may also want to define what you call "resistance". That may help eveyone with suggesting appropriate counter measures.

What kind of resistance do they usually get?

Teach them not to think of it as "handling the situation". Prospects are not opponents to be "handled".
