Richardson Sales Performance's Intentional Pursuit Strategy Training Program

The Intentional Pursuit Strategy training program (learn more here) is a strategic sales training program that teaches your sales team to improve their ability to pursue complex sales opportunities, increase their chances of winning the deal, and shorten the sales cycle.

Participants learn a buyer-centric methodology that embraces the dynamic nature of buying today. This methodology provides a set of strategic thinking prompts, practices, and interactive planning tools to help sales professionals make decisions, avoid traps, and take the right actions at the right time to move the sale forward.

Leveraging insights from behavioral science, the methodology helps sales professionals create momentum and guide the customer through the logical and emotional buying decision.

The Intentional Pursuit Strategy training program trains your team to:

  • Understand how the buying process has changed and the imperative this change has created for them to think and act differently
  • Recognize and influence the factors buyers consider in every buying decision:
    • The Case for Change
    • Stakeholder Dynamics
    • Decision Process
  • Utilize our Momentum Methodology to assess their position, create the right strategy to differentiate, and execute with precision to drive the sale to close
