This workshop presents a solid methodology based on empirical research of the role senior business leaders have in the decision making process for major purchases. It focuses on the necessary skills for salespeople and management who are tasked with selling at the executive level and who are currently involved with obtaining and maintaining major accounts. Also, those salespeople wanting to move up into executive sales roles, and any sales managers with responsibility for coaching existing newly promoted or recently appointed sales people.
This interactive program delivers the most effective methods on how to gain access to business leaders and senior executives, organize sales research and create a customized value presentation that focuses on the client’s specific business drivers, initiatives and critical success factors.
