‘Aggressive’ closing is increasingly unsuccessful, and yet we must get an agreement and handle objections. The answer lies in advanced professional methods.

Overview
Closing and objection handling are probably the aspects most discussed when considering the sales process and skills of the salesforce. Much research has been conducted into this area. Poor skills result in the ‘Aggressive Salesperson’ stereotype. There is increasing resistance to poor closing and objection handling.

This stimulating course builds on skills and allows participants to develop a personal style that encompasses the latest psychological approaches.

Who Should Attend
All new and existing salespeople.

Duration
1 Day
