The sales professional operating in the 21st Century is a very different person when compared to the traditional stereotype from the last twenty years. This 2-day CMBD course looks at transactional and consultative approaches, the importance of listening and how to ask the right questions at the right stage of the process.

Course Overview

The CMBD Advanced Selling Skills workshop is a two-day course that will provide you with a number of tools and techniques that you can use to improve your sales performance. We start on Day 1 with a look at you as an individual and explore how personality, habits and beliefs affect our behaviour - and therefore your results. During Day 2, we will then move on to understanding what motivates and drives the modern buyer and the importance of presenting a compelling sales presentation. During the workshops, your tutor will give you individual coaching and development feedback. We finish the programme with looking at the structure and thought process required to develop an account once a relationship has been established.

Throughout the workshops, delegates will be introduced to useful tools and techniques that can be adapted for use in any organisation if required. The two days of the course are designed to be delivered 1 to 2 weeks apart to allow time for delegates to action plan and practice some of the techniques that they will be introduced to on the first day. They can then give feedback on their results and share best practice.
