New ideas and suggestions can take others aback. When this happens, it means that whatever you said is triggering something in them that makes them unsure and/or uncomfortable.
Once you know that they heard what you said, give them space to think it through on their on and let go of it. You have done your part and whether they agree with it or not is out of your hands at that point. Revisit the topic again when the other person is ready to do so.
This approach can be quite productive when you are not pressed for time.
