Building relationships with key accounts to generate
opportunities is more than just talking to everyone. To be
effective and cost-effective requires a plan to be devised and
implemented. This short course allows the key people involved to
develop the plan.
Overview
Managing a key account is more than regular visits. We
must generate further ‘opportunities.’ As people and needs change,
regular suppliers are often deposed by new organisations. We must
ensure continual development and understanding. This course
allows participants to build the action plan required and use key
concepts.
Who Should Attend
Anyone who is involved in managing key accounts
including salespeople, account managers and sales managers. Even
experienced account managers will find this course valuable for
increasing skills and the effectiveness of account management.
