The exercises are designed to cover multiple skill areas required by today’s sales professionals as per the following sections.
Day 2
Business Acumen skills
Today’s competitive economy requires a new breed of sales professionals. Relationship selling is no longer the skill that a sales professional should have. Customers value what is called “Partnership Selling”, building a social relationship with customers, playing Golf, or go fishing with them is no longer the way to sustain healthy and consistent business relationship.  That said, we have designed a set of exercises that raises the level of business acumen of sales professionals.
Business Modeling
Moving the sales professionals from “pray & spray” mode, where they recite the features of their products to a partnership mode where they add value to their customers require an important ingredient; business acumen. To add value to the buying organization one needs to understand what they do, how they do it, to whom, etc. In this exercise we teach the participants the basics of business modeling. Knowing the customer business model enables the sales professional to identify areas where they can add value suing their products & services.

ROI, PB period, NPV, Cash Flow Management Oftentimes sales professionals are asked to present a Return on Investment ROI, or Payback period information to their customers, unfortunately very few know how to answer such a request. This exercise aims at raining the awareness level of sales professionals of some financial terms that are quite beneficial and indeed separates them from their competitors. They learn how to develop a proper payment plan that matches their customer’s business need and their company’s cash flow. Further customization can be done to address the specifics of any industry as per the customer’s need.

Sales Scripting, a valuable tool that should be used
Scripting is the best tool a sales professional can use, but unfortunately, they never practice it and in turn get into improvised discussions with their customers. The most important thing in a sales conversation is “Control”. Elite sales professionals spend hours scripting their conversations, so they control and drive the discussion without any surprises. This section of the course includes numerous scripts that cover almost all kinds of conversations and objections: Examples of openings (inbound and outbound) The right way to open your phone call Initial resistance scripts: I’m not interested - “Just send/email the information - We’re already taken care of/have a supplier/etc. - I’m too busy/don’t have the time. - We don’t have the budget/money. The Definition of a Qualified Lead, qualifying checklist Examples of Red Flags and how to handle them: How to Handle Incoming Leads (Inside Sales): Voice Mail Scripts - Voice Mails left for prospects you haven’t spoken to yet: - Voice Mails left for prospects (or clients) you’re getting back to - Prospects that are dodging you or not calling you back Email secrets The Five Step Method of Handling Objections Closing scripts, handling closing objections - The price is too high - I need to show this to my (partner, boss, etc.) - I need to think about it / need to wait until next week/month / I’ll get back to you - I already have a supplier - Do you have references/I’m not familiar with your company - Do you have a guarantee/I’m not sure this is for me We already have more business than we can handle, good when you sell to distributors
