Sales Team Training
As a Sales Director or MD, do you resonate with the following scenarios:
- You have some great Account managers in your team, but they lack new business development skills
- You have taken on a number of new, inexperienced Sales Managers
- You are tasked with developing new markets to boost growth
When undertaking sales and business development training it is key to consider both skills training as well as on-going mentoring to ensure that you get best return on investment. Through working with sales directors and business development managers I have found that they usually struggle with the following:
- Segment the market effectively whilst creating a suitable approach to behavioural styles and target markets
- Creating systems that allow them to follow up and service relationships regularly
- Establish and utilize an effective sales process
- Developing strong negotiating style
The training framework below is designed to cover these issues in detail whilst providing both skills training and mentoring. As your specific needs and background are yet to be clarified and discussed I have included a variety of topics which can be further tailored to suit your team.
1. Sales Skills development workshops:
Workshop length: 2 hours
What will be covered in the day: Training sessions delivered as workshops designed to improve both business development and sales knowledge and skills. I have included some examples of topics based on common requirements:

2. Sales process workshop for your team:

What will be covered in the day: I can tailor this to your requirements and will typically base it on interviews with you and the team.
