Objective:

We are all different. We come from various backgrounds, regions, countries and hold vastly different views on topics
ranging from what we inherently like, what we absolutely dislike, and the values that led us to those conclusions.  
Often times we lose sight of the fact that difference is normal and good, as long as we value and appreciate the
diversity of ideas among members of our team. Therefore, since we cannot change the differences in each of us, the
next best step is to learn to embrace and maximize our differences in productive ways that benefit our organization.

Objective:

Are you ready to exceed your quota and impact your bottom line? If so, lets go back to the future and get back to the
basics of selling.  As sales professionals we are expected to be motivated "go-getters",  aggressive hunters, solid
relationship builders and most of all - strong closers.  Often times we lose sight of the fact that selling is simple,
and yet, can still be fun.  Consequently, "getting back to basics" is more than just a phrase; it is a conceptual
framework that supports selling from a behavioral perspective which helps sales professionals to better
understand the client, as well as, the client needs, leading to a higher closing percentage. If you agree, then this
"real-world" sales survey course is designed specifically for your organizational sales team.  That’s what this
course is designed to do: assist beginning and seasoned sales professionals in developing better prospecting
skills, and conducting effective sales calls, by turning
suspects into prospects and prospects into clients.

What participants will learn:

  • Using effective cross-cultural communication
  • Developing good prospecting skills
  • Identifying the key decision-maker
  • Conducting a proper sales call
  • Properly handling "real-world" objections
  • Techniques for effectively closing the deal
  • Building and maintaining client relationships
  • Maximizing account and time management
