What is the best business to business sales training course?
- Training designed by a top-performing salesperson who has become a trainer.

- The co-creation of workplace actions for embedding learning in participant routines and habits.
- Career-long support.
Success in selling rests on doing the right things at the right time rather than an elusive knack or talent. Professional selling competency can be learned like any other ability.
Business to business sales training teaches the habits and practices of top salespeople. It uses an optimised blend of instruction and on-the-job assignments to accelerate learning.
Participants take on workplace assignments in one-to-one or group workshops. Then reconvene to review results, adjust their approach, and take on the next assignment. Actions advance real sales campaigns while developing skills and habits.
Sales training or coaching can be spread over several months, condensed into longer intensive sessions, or delivered over four consecutive days.
Take this course for guidance in creating or optimising your personal sales process.

Participant Comments
Great learning experience. Simulation exercises and group work helped a lot. Useful reference material. From Tata Telecommunications
Very practical and hands-on. Liked the fact it has been spread out over a number of weeks. Clive came across as diligent, supportive and demonstrated a very good understanding of the issues I am facing on a daily basis. His suggestions have not only been taken on board, I am actually already using them. From Integralis
The course is a real eye-opener, good at pointing out issues and factors that may be missed/taken for granted and teaching how we can use this to our advantage. From Bfi Optilas
