CPD WEBINAR: Challenging for Sales Success (Part 2)

For decades B2B organisations in solution selling have focused their sales approach on understanding client needs and building strong relationships. But research in recent years has clearly established that this is no longer enough, and that the very best salespeople go beyond traditional consultative and solution selling to ‘challenge’ their clients in multiple ways.
