Sales Excellence webshops
These interactive webshops will provide inputs on the steps that need to be taken to sustain the improved results for longer periods. They have been designed to make real change happen in participants and it is a refreshing change to the traditional methods of training.
Sales Excellence webshops are designed with a mix of business strategy tools as well as psychological tools as we believe that real change requires a good mix of the mind and the heart, IQ & EQ, High Tech and High Touch.
The strategic business tools include customer profiling based on business health, decision role of customers, customer need identification models, product/market decision models, funnel management tools, value presentation tools, sales closing techniques, loyalty building tools and management skills.
The psychological tools include NLP & TA. NLP helps to liberate the individual’s potential and helps focus energy to channel their life in exactly the direction in which they want to go. The programme draws on proven techniques developed by some of the world’s foremost peak performance experts. TA is considered the psychology of communication based on the ego states of the sender and receiver of information. Leadership required to energize, enrol, engage and empower team members are included to provide the essential skills for execution of business strategy.
