Transformational Sales Management Training
On the Sales Management Training Course I teach sales managers to be hands on and in the trenches with their team.
I’m strong on teaching them about coaching their team. I believe a sales manager should be measured on the process of motivating his/her staff to sell just as much as on the sales result.
Sales managers are there to set their team up for success and that should be their total intent. I essentially teach them how to care for and grow their team.
On the sales results side, I teach sales managers to become business generators in their own right. They need to know how to find, nurture, score leads that they can hand over to their team.
They need to be able to teach their team to up sell and cross sell and they need to be able to teach their team to keep the business on the books and grow it – this speaks to Key Account Management and Customer Relationship Management.
