The pressure on finding new customers is relentless and outbound calling is now a significant part of the sales plan. As voicemail is adopted by so many organisations, it becomes increasingly difficult to get through to the decision maker. This practical course aims to help delegates overcome these obstacles and provide you with all the essential techniques for successful telephone selling and appointment setting.
Delegates will be taught how to prepare for every call and how to maximise their results. We aim to show delegates how to increase their confidence and reduce the rejection factor. Delegates are provided techniques for cross selling and upselling on outbound and inbound calls. Delegates will also receive training in how to use the seven-touch strategy to dramatically improve their results.
