Event Overview

Most sales methods have not adapted to today’s selling climate. Too many people get hit-and-miss results using out-of-date sales techniques that have been disproved by science. With the commoditisation of products and services, it is no surprise that over that 50% of sales success is down to the salesperson, rather than the product or service. By applying insights from neuroscience research, we demonstrate how traditional selling behaviours can actually result in alienating customers. We explain why this happens and the methods that should be used to really boost sales – especially when we cant always meet face-to-face.

>> Learning Objectives

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

  • Understand what really makes people buy – the neuroscience behind decision making and selling
  • Learn why traditional sales methods don’t work – how we unintentionally alienate our customers
  • Develop trust and empathy with your customer to get that all-important emotional buy-in
  • Craft powerful questions that get to the hidden drivers and buying motivations
  • Identify how to express your USPs in a compelling way that hooks the customer
  • Implement a tried-and-tested, step-by-step process to convert new leads into closed business
