Conference for sales managers - what will you learn?

  • How information noise affects sales and what challenges it creates for salespeople.
  • How to choose a sales approach that aligns with the customer's situation and your priority goals.

  • What tools allow you to better understand customer decisions based on available data.

What issue does the conference address

Companies looking to increase sales effectiveness often invest in developing the competencies of salespeople. Many of them choose one of the popular methodologies (e.g. SPIN, Sandler, Challenger) and then train salespeople in their application. Unfortunately, selling with a one-size-fits-all method is a myth! Customers have different needs, preferences, experiences and expectations. Consumers may demand different things from salespeople - from comprehensive product knowledge to quality relationships and trust. We need to approach each customer individually, understand their situation and mindset, such as what arguments will be convincing to them. How to do this in practice?
