An innovative, surprisingly simple and straight forward approach, this
program prepares the media salesperson to uncover real business
marketing challenges and to deliver strategic holistic marketing
solutions against those challenges (leveraging both traditional and
emerging platforms).
We will use stories, analogies and case studies to achieve objectives
in this course. In this approach the learner will learn the
fundamentals of the consumer purchase funnel and how they directly
apply to where their product suite is most effective. The program is
delivered over five modules which build off each other. There is also
an optional sixth module available for sales managers and directors
who wish to leverage a true coaching approach to ensure new behaviours
are maintained as their team moves from the classroom to the field. We customize all modules of the learning to meet your
organization's unique and specific needs.
Modules:
1 - Holistic Sales Approach
2 - Consultative Selling
3 - Digital Product Training
4 - Needs Assessment
5 - Social Selling
6 - Coaching Mindset (for Sales
Leaders)
