*A systematic decision is the product of a great many smaller organized and summarized judgments. A version of this process was used by the British Army in 1912 and its roots can be traced back further to the ancient Greeks. Aristotle talked about looking for distinctions. This specific process was developed by Dr. Alan Weiss.

303 Succession Planning System

What does your business do when it loses key people? Do things move forward seamlessly or does the departure create a hole in your ability to continue smoothly? Do you have the bench strength, depth, resilience, and the ability to continue at the same high level when key people are lost?

Succession planning is the process of identifying and developing talent to replace leaders when they are promoted to new positions, leave the organization or retire.

306 Sales Call Training

Why do people buy?

People make purchases to meet needs or resolve problems. They decide to buy when the pain of the problem and desire for a solution has been built to the point where they are greater than the cost of the solution.

In order to close more sales, you must uncover and develop the buyer’s problems.

We never persuade clients of anything. Clients persuade themselves. Our function as sales professionals is to understand the issues that matter to our clients. We have to feel their problems just the way they feel them. We have to sit on their side of the table and look at issues from their point of view.

This is a custom workshop based on an assessment of the skills of individuals on your sales team.

Call today and let’s talk about how formal sales training can help your organization meet and exceed sales growth goals.
