CPD WEBINAR : Closing the deal - objection handling and closing [75-minute session]
In the same way that many salespeople experience ‘call reluctance’, many others fail to ask for the business, or to have appropriate strategies to deal with objections when they do. This session explores how the work you do earlier in the process can make it easier for yourself by minimising objections and creating an ‘easier close’. We then explore how to handle objections when they do arise, and how to help secure the final close.

CPD WEBINAR: Understanding and addressing client buying influences
How often do we lose an existing account, or fail to win a sales pitch despite having what we think is clearly the best proposition?

This session demonstrates a step-by-step methodology to make sure you cover all the bases and are not left scratching your head after another unexplained failure.
