Reppd is the sales training app that lets you practice out loud before it counts. You don't get better at handling objections by reading about them. You get better by doing them — over and over — until the words come out smooth under pressure. Reppd gives you a place to get those reps in. HOW IT WORKS Pick an objection. Talk to an AI buyer that pushes back like the real thing. Get a scored breakdown of how you did — and one clear thing to fix on your next set. No scripts to memorize. No deal on the line. Just reps. TRAIN THE OBJECTIONS YOU ACTUALLY HEAR - Price — "This is too expensive" - Shopping Around — "I want to look at a few more places" - Decision-Maker — "I need to talk to my spouse" - Trade-In — "My trade is worth more than that" - Vehicle-Specific — "The mileage is too high" - Credit & Financing — "I want to check my credit first" - Not Today — "I'm just looking" GET SCORED LIKE A PRO Every set is graded on what actually matters: - Objection handling - Confidence - Tonality - Pacing - Reframe quality Plus a coaching note that tells you exactly what to work on next. BUILT LIKE A GYM Start on Warm-up. Work your way to Game Day. Track your streak, climb the ranks, and watch your scores rise as the reps add up. The buyer changes voice and approach every time, so it never feels the same twice. WHO IT'S FOR Reppd is built for car sales reps — especially in your first year on the floor, when every objection feels like a wall. If you've ever frozen on a customer and known you left a deal on the table, this is your practice ground. Get your reps in before the real thing. --- Reppd offers a free set to start. Pro unlocks every objection category, unlimited sessions, and full coaching.
