New Seminar and Workshop based on the successful book of the same name. Designed to help business owners and sales people, particularly those who find selling challenging.

1. How to Make Sales When You Don’t Like Selling
Learning Session Description:
Selling is tough! Making sales is one of the hardest jobs there is. Why?
Because the majority of people will tell you, they don’t need your product
or service, don’t want it, and can’t afford it. And there’s no stock answer
to that; no magic bullet that will turn a non-customer into a customer.
However, if you are a business owner, a sole trader, established sales
person, or new to sales; then you need to find new clients and customers.
You need to make sales to make sure your business survives, and is
profitable and successful. As a modern business person, you need to
develop skills, knowledge, attitude and personal qualities to meet the
greater expectations of your customers and their business.
This learning event addresses the qualities, knowledge and skills needed
by a professional business person. It is primarily directed at those who
have not been trained in sales, and are not particularly comfortable about
selling.
It examines the importance of attitude, sales psychology and basic sales
techniques. It will show you how to get customers to come to you and
motivate them to buy.
Once you have attended this event, you will have a better understanding
of why people buy; how to be more proactive, influence decisions,
become more persuasive and build lasting customer relationships.
