As products and services become more alike the real competitive
edge lies in the skill of those dealing with customers. Advanced
Selling Skills takes selling skills to a more advanced level.
Overview
In a competitive situation, every minor aspect of
selling becomes more important. As products and services become
more alike, or can answer the same needs in different ways, it is
the sales process that makes the difference. As we seek to build
differentiators in our propositions, we must seek to build
differentiators in our sales force.
Bad products/services sold well will always, in the
medium/long-term, beat good products sold badly.
This course provides advanced skills to ensure the maximum
opportunity for a competitive edge in the sales force.
