DownloadConnecting with Inbound and Outbound Calls
Sales professionals learn the process and skills needed to effectively open a call by identifying the customer's purpose for calling, taking ownership of the solution, and establishing value to gain the customer's attention.
Deeper Understanding of the Customer
Sales professionals learn how to build connections with customers to engage them in productive dialogues, ask a full range of questions, float ideas, and ensure the development of active listening skills to fully understand needs.
Positioning Value that Differentiates
Sales professionals learn how to describe capabilities and solutions using compelling messaging that links value to customer needs.
Resolving Sales Objections
Sales professionals learn to take a positive mindset toward objections to avoid defensiveness and self-serving behaviors that undermine trust, and equip themselves with a four-step model to resolve any objection.
Follow Up & Closing
Sales professionals practice asking for commitments to build confidence by following a process that lowers the risk of rejection and increases the likelihood of advancing the sale.
