Business 2 Business Sales Skills Course Outline

This 3-day Business 2 Business Sales Skills programme focuses on building techniques that work in the business world. It produces results for people who are moving into B2B sales for the first time or those who want to refresh their approach and learn new ways of selling to customers.

The course will approach the rudiments of good sales procedures such as rapport building, how to lead the customer towards the buying decision and lastly closing the deal. It will also deal with how to handle objections, negotiation skills and importantly how to positively manage the ongoing relationship of trust and reliance that has to develop between the sales professional and the client.

Use this in-house event to embed your sales process and use case studies that reflect the challenges your people face.
