Consultative Selling Skills Sales Seminar
Summary
One of the most common mistakes that ineffective
sales persons make is trying to sell something to a customer before he or she
knows what the customer wants to purchase. This approach often sets up a
confrontational tug of war in which the sales rep keeps pushing products and the
customer keeps backing away. This is a recipe for disaster; at the very least,
it is a prescription for a low closing rate. However, there is a better way.
Our one or two-day Consultative Selling Skills class is your ticket to
consistently higher closing rates, higher margins and long-term, very satisfied
customers. During this highly interactive, hands on sales training workshop, our
experienced professional sales trainers will lead you through a challenging
array of concepts and activities to help you quickly gain a clear understanding
of your customer’s needs, interests, problems and issues. The skills you will
learn during the class will enable you to understand what the customer does –
and does not – want to buy, so that you can structure a proposal that will give
him what he wants, rather than trying to sell him what you want.
