    An assumptive proposition helps you close a sale because it assumes that the customer has already made the decision to purchase the product or service. By presenting the proposition in a way that assumes the sale, it creates a sense of urgency and encourages the customer to take action. This approach is effective because it nudges the customer towards making a decision rather than leaving them with the option to consider alternatives or delay the purchase.
