I chose Indecisive customers and these customers generally fail to choose the most appropriate product/service for their complete satisfaction. They always tend to feel that they are not buying the perfect product suited for their needs. The book provides recommendations to show patience, provide guidance, provide alternatives, listen actively, and ask open-ended questions while dealing with such customers.
