It’s no secret that selling has changed in recent years. This is an exciting and dynamic profession, yet it is one of the most underrated and misunderstood, at least in recent years. The back-slapping sleazy, joke-telling huckster has disappeared and in his place is a new generation of sales professionals—highly trained and groomed, with the characteristics of honesty, trustworthiness, and competence. This one-day workshop will help you teach participants how to be one of those smart sales professionals.

Specific learning objectives include:

• Understand a wonderful paradox: helping other people get what they want gives us more of what we want.
• Use goal-setting techniques as a way to focus on what you want to accomplish and develop strategies for getting there.
• Recognize the difference between features and benefits of products and services.
• Identify and be able to better present the competitive strengths of your products and services, so that you can be proactive in handling objections and more successful at asking for the business.
• Use different types of selling for different situations.
• Identify ways to find new clients and network effectively.
