These techniques are just basic reminders if they are not heavily customized to become a real sales process that aligns with your customers buying journey. Challenger Sales, Customer Centric Selling, Sandler, Target Account Selling or Solution Selling all have advantages. Don’t be “certiforced” into sales methodologies and get the most out of sales B2B approaches from Tech giants to build up your own methodology: the one that will allow you to serve your customers better, sell better and sell more..

Sales strategy and execution

If your sales action plan is a long list of priorities with no hierarchy and no numbers, good luck convincing your finance department to follow you! Learn how data such as propensity to buy, weighted account potential, ideal customer profile and tiering will help you segment your territory, prioritize your actions, and orchestrate your resources. Find the right balance between data and creativity, focus on the right KPIs and turn your approach into an actionable method for all your managers and sales people. Executing the fundamentals of sales excellence such as territory plans, account plans and sales opportunities will be easier. And more efficient.

Projects and Workshops

Your sales performance problem won’t be solved by offering your products and services on the web. Your problem may encompass not only talent management, the impact of your sales method or your ability to define and execute your sales strategy, but it includes talent management, processes and systems. This is why we offer on-demand projects combining all the components of sales performance and the choice of the best sales and marketing tools. This is why we also offer customized workshops that will allow you to set ambitious and inspiring goals, refocus your organization around strategic, business and cultural objectives or master your time and personal productivity or the art of negotiation.
