Course Description/Agenda

What is the number one complaint that customers voice about sales people? It is that sales representatives simply don?t take the time to listen. Then, they attempt to sell prematurely.

They learn to ask better questions and gather more useful information before trying to sell prematurely. Participants in this sales workshop learn how to concentrate their focus on each client?s particular situation, challenges, and vision to ultimately partner with them and build revenues. This selling skills workshop enables participants to determine how their company and product/service can provide meaningful value to a client ? even in a highly competitive, saturated and commoditized market.
