Feras Alhlou explains why asking people if your idea is good doesn't work. Instead, ask specific questions about their problems: When was the last time your team missed a sales target? Find the pain point first, then pitch.
Stop asking people to judge your idea. Well, let me walk you through a sales consultant, someone who offers consulting on sales.

That's about do you think, what's your opinion? Instead of that, I want you to ask, when was the last time your team missed a sales target? Now that's a pain point. What happened then? Did we not get leads? Did we not close leads? Did we struggle in sending proposals on time? Right? What did your team try? See, he asked about something very specific. The last time a sales target was missed, and this happens a lot in companies.
