SUCCESSFUL OBJECTION HANDLING IN CRISES

There can be no successful sale without prior successful objection handling. Objections are an indicator as to what stage in the sales process the customer has reached. When the customer makes an objection, he is actually "responding" to what the salesman has said (or not said) during the sales process. That moment is very important for the sale, and more often than not, the key moment, as objections send a signal to the salesman that the customer is emotionally involved in the sales process. For the salesman, it's vital to realise that the objections are not directed at him personally, and that they are not a sign of rejection of the sale. Objections are simply "questions" that the customer has that stem from his desire and need to receive more information that could lead to the conclusion of the sale.

The seminar's goal is to enable better understanding of objections, their necessity in the sales process, and to enable mastery of the art of professional and successful objection handling.

Course aims:

By the end of the seminar, participants will:

  • Learn to prevent objections

  • Know how to prepare for objection handling

  • Have a clearer idea of the role of objections in the sales process

  • Know methods of objection handling

PRO-ACTIVE BUSINESS SALES (B2B)

If your company sells to other companies (business-to-business - B2B) then this is the right seminar for your salesmen.

B2B sales differ from ordinary sales in a number of ways. The B2B sales process is made up of a series of steps, and ordinary sales skills do not bring the anticipated results in this area. More sales discussions are needed, more people are involved etc. At this seminar, we'll teach your sales staff how to master this complexity, and how to handle even the most demanding customers.

Course aims:

  • Learn how to hold a B2B sales discussion

  • Know what is most important in complex sales situations

  • Acquire the skills that will allow you to showcase your product effectively

  • Learn how to close a sales discussion

Duration - 2 days

SUCCESSFUL SALES TO KEY CUSTOMERS (KAM)

According to Pareto's 80/20 Law, over 80% of sales are made by less than 20% of customers. That's why one of a company's key tasks is to have detailed strategies for key customers.

Successful sales for such customers require a completely different approach to the sales process. The salesman has to master sophisticated sales techniques and adapt to a specific type of customer - the professional customer buying for his company. Customers like these behave differently to retail customers who are buying for themselves, and the decision to purchase can take longer and involve more people.

In that context, it's necessary to work out a plan to win over, then retain, key customers. The Successful Sales to Key Customers course targets the process of preparing and sealing long-term cooperation with key customers.

Course aims:

  • Grasp the importance of effective sales preparation

  • Learn to gain the customer's trust

  • Learn how to present your company or product

  • Master the skills of objection handling

  • Learn to close a sale

Duration - 2 days

The course is designed for: experienced salesmen, key account managers

 

HOW TO NEGOTIATE SUCCESSFULLY- THE ART OF SUCCESSFUL NEGOTIATION

Sooner or later, we all become part of a negotiating process. The negotiating parties' different interests are the most important reason for talks.

Your suppliers and customers want something new - lower prices, extended payment deadlines, faster delivery, longer guarantees... Similarly, your employees want better conditions.

Everyone in a company or organisation who wants to achieve results should know how to negotiate effectively. This course encourages participants to learn and apply the proven win-win negotiating concept.

HOW TO PREPARE AND DELIVER AN EFFECTIVE PRESENTATION

A product, service or concept is as exceptional as the person that presents it. Exceptionally prepared material, the right choice of words and a rich vocabulary, knowledge of rhetoric and body language can be decisive in persuading a customer or interlocutor.

If you haven't already, you too will, at some point in your professional career, present the results of your work to a wider circle of people - your boss, your colleagues, at seminars or conferences. With the right performance and a convincing speech, combined with the techniques of effective presentation, you too can present everything you want more successfully and convincingly. This course will teach you three important areas of presentation - performance, speech, and presentation techniques - and bring them together into an effective symbiosis. That way you'll maximise your self-confidence, you'll remain authentic, and you'll be able to convince and delight any audience.

Course aims:

  • Increase self-confidence and enhance your image as a public orator

Duration - 3 days

The course is designed for: salesmen, line, middle, and senior management

 

EFFECTIVE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION

Recruitment and final selection are the keys to your success and the success of your company. Research has shown that 95% of successes depend on effective recruitment and selection of the right people. There are few things more important than which people to select for your team. If you choose the right people, success is practically guaranteed.

If you're hasty in hiring people, then you can live to regret to it. Our motto is - recruit slowly and carefully, but fire quickly. Candidates usually look their best when seeking a new job, they say a lot and appear quite promising. Moreover, bad selection can be expensive. Experts have calculated that the costs of replacing staff are on average the equivalent to a third or a sixth of their annual salary, not to mention the costs of expectation, loss of business and your nerves. That's why it is important for you to master the art of recruitment and selecting new personnel.

The best companies in the world have the best recruitment procedures because they know it will save them money, time and headaches. At the same time, it creates the image of a good employer on the market, which allows them to find the right people more easily.

At this seminar you'll learn the skills of effective recruitment and selection, and what tools to use in this process.

Course aims:

  • Understand why recruitment is your key priority

  • Learn how to make a structured analysis of the vacant post

  • Understand what the key profile elements of the ideal candidate are

DISK MODEL OF PERSONALITY FACTORS

Successful people have brought their internal potential into harmony with the behaviour that they display. They know what their strengths and limits are, and are also prepared to confidently overcome crisis situations and conflicts in their professional and private lives. The DISC model of personality factors describes human behaviour in specific situations with a view to better understanding one's own needs and the needs of others.

You'll make your own profile with DISC personality factors and the DISC behaviour profile via a questionnaire, which includes the following options:

  • Recognising your own strengths and limits; analysing your style of work

  • Creating an environment that will best encourage you to achieve success

  • Insight into what contribution you can make within your organisation

  • Avoiding unproductive stress in advance

The Persolog personality profile is made up of three parts (analysis, interpretation and assessment) with seven interpretation levels.

 

HOW TO IMPROVE COMMUNICATION USING DISC BEHAVIOUR ANALYSIS

For good communication, it is not enough to follow the golden rule in life which says: do unto others as you would have them do unto you. To that rule we should add a platinum rule - communicate with others as they would wish to be communicated with. What's good for one person isn't necessarily good with another. That's why we need to adapt our communication level to the different people that we meet.

This seminar allows you to build a foundation for good communication on the basis of a world renowned model of personality analysis - Persolog. Once you are more aware of your strengths and weaknesses, motives for communication, and behaviour profile, you'll achieve better results.

There's little chance for you to develop your potential if you work in a manner and environment that isn't natural to you.

Understanding your behaviour, your emotions and the ways you work and communicate with others allow you to become more successful. Why compete with nature when you can turn it to your advantage. This seminar and DISC behaviour analysis give you the answer to how to effectively react in different environments.

Course aims:

  • Better understand yourself and others

  • Appraise your behaviour style and recognise the behaviour styles of others

  • Uncover your strengths and a way you can use them more effectively

  • Adapt your communication to different styles of behaviour

  • Recognise potential conflict situations and how to behave better in those situations

  • Prepare an action plan for better communication with difficult interlocutors

Duration - 2 days

The course is designed for: salesmen, line, middle and senior management levels, and all those who want to invest in development and improving their communication style
