Why it works

Balanced

Three taps between you and a better answer.

  1. Tell it what they said

    Type the objection, or hold the mic and repeat it, eye roll optional.

  2. Set the tone

    Slide from goofy to serious. Same objection, five very different replies.

  3. Say it back

    Read the reply, or let Teeoh say it out loud. Save the good ones for next time.

Borrowed from the sales playbook.

Good salespeople carry something called an objection handler: tested responses for every pushback a customer might give them.

Teeoh applies the same idea to the toughest audience there is. Every reply, goofy or serious, follows the same four moves.

  1. AcknowledgeLet them know you actually heard it.
  2. ClarifyFind the real objection. It's rarely the one they said.
  3. RespondAnswer that, not the surface argument.
  4. CloseEnd with a time, a question, or a clear answer.

Made for everyday arguments, not emergencies.

If your teen talks about hurting themselves or someone else, or you think they're in danger, Teeoh won't joke about it. Reach out to people trained to help.
