About the Training: 
Several years ago, one of my sales associates shared a secret with me. He told me that the reason he was such a good sales person was the fact that he had been born with the “gift of gab”. Telling isn’t selling, but rather through the art of questioning finding out what is important to the customer, and then helping him achieve it.

 

The principles and topics taught in this workshop include:
* Understanding the sales process
* The six step sales process
* The power of questioning
* Types of questions
* When and how to question
* Discover, uncover, remove
* Eliminating objections
* Questions are the answer
* Diagnostic evaluation
* Dealing with objections
