Relationship Selling Skills

This two-day program is specifically designed for individuals who have sales responsibilities. It introduces participants to the fundamentals of needs-based relationship selling skills.

A key principle of our approach to selling your products and services is to focus on identifying, relative to your products and/or services, what it is that your customers need as a problem and then presenting your most appropriate products and/or services as solutions which will help your customer resolve or eliminate their problem. It’s about focusing on your client’s needs. Needs-based selling is customer-focused. It is based on the belief that people make buying decisions to satisfy needs and desires, and to solve problems. It requires skill in determining needs and problems, linking your products and services to those issues and then conveying your solutions to you customer in a way which compels them to say yes. Product information is presented from the customer’s point of view, not your point of view.

The sale is as much about the relationship as it is about selling the product or service.

Today’s customers are better informed and more aggressively targeted by your competition than ever.
