Course: On-Site Coaching To Improve Your Selling Skills

Strategic selling is about how to be successful when the opportunity has a high ticket value, involves a solution not just a product, when multiple customer contacts need to be convinced and sales cycles can be lengthy. By following the techniques in this coaching session your sales team will work on fully qualified opportunities and apply the best strategies resulting in more business. Your company will have an accurate forecasting system and sales force management will become less time consuming but highly effective. The coaching is delivered at your company on either a half day or full day agenda and is practical based where the delegates give specific situations.
