Sales Training

Sales Training

Business today is tough. It doesn't matter if you have the best products or are the world's foremost authority. If you haven't got the strategies and skills to sell effectively, you're stuck on the outside - while a competitor with marginal products gets the business. You can take your business to a whole new level by winning more sales and satisfying customers with a highly skilled and motivated sales team.

Most of the sales techniques of the past are no longer relevant today and customers, buyers and purchasing managers/agents see them as manipulative and unprofessional. The principles, strategies and skills in our customised training workshops are based on extensive research over the past 18 years on the best practices used by top performers both in Australia and internationally.

Our training workshops are custom designed specifically for the issues facing you and tailored to your products, markets and customers which encourages your team to relate the theory to their own circumstances.

Our approach is to create a unique in-company workshop for you which involves the following process steps:

Needs analysis - A needs-analysis is conducted with management and participants to ensure the workshop caters to specific development needs and identifies common trends across the organisation.

Customised - the workshop is custom designed to be relevant to your customers, markets, products, processes, company policies and specific challenges.

Personalised - participants will work on their own real-world problems during the workshop.

Interactive - will involve open discussion, role playing and small-group sessions.

Minimum disruption - workshops are scheduled to ensure a minimum of disruption to normal business operations. Our sales training workshops can be completed at one concentrated time or spread out over a period of weeks or months. A conference, seminar or meeting is an ideal time when the whole team is together, to focus on improving strategies and skills.

Follow-up - On going coaching support for the team leader and team members as appropriate.

These workshops can also can be designed as Train-the-Trainer programs, providing an economical way for you to develop the skills of your entire sales force.
