All consultants need to sell their services and products, but most of us feel awkward doing it. To people in professional services, the word "sales" conjures up visions of pushy used-car dealers in leisure suits. That's not something we want to be on the receiving end of, and not something we want to inflict on our prospects.
Effective selling isn't like that at all. In fact, the easier our sales conversations, the more effective we are at closing business.
Come to the July BACN meeting to learn skills that expand influence and deepen relationships--ideal for sales environments involving multiple decision makers and complex decision criteria. Develop techniques that can dramatically improve your ability to influence others in small, informal meetings. Stop talking at your customers: balance advocacy with inquiry to build openness and rapport, instead. The skills you learn will help make selling feel easy.
By the end of this program you will know
* How to gain traction with prospects and customers more quickly.
* How to consult with customers about deeper needs at more strategic levels.
* How to get hired in a world where people buy with their hearts, not their heads.
