Sales Management Training
Sales management training courses designed to help sales managers motivate sales teams and boost sales performance
Progressing from a sales person to a sales manager is often an exciting yet challenging task and for many managing a sales team for the first time can be a daunting prospect. Responsible for motivating the sales team, setting and achieving targets, managing people and growing sales performance, sales managers have a lot of responsibility and indeed pressure. Therefore, ensuring sales managers have proven strategies in place is vital to theirs and the team’s success.
That’s why our bespoke sales management training is designed around the following steps to help sales managers adopt the correct managerial behaviours and communicate effectively with staff in order to boost sales team morale and performance. Please contact us.
Step 1: communicating effectively with your sales team
Communicating effectively with your sales team is the key to good management. This is why our concept Words, Music and Dance features in our sales management training course.
Essentially, words, music and dance discusses the importance of creating credible conversations through clear communication and the importance of how miscommunication creates misunderstanding. By helping you to get your words, music and dance on point, every time, we can make you a better sales manager by creating valuable interactions with your sales team.
Step 2: establishing good relationships with your sales team
People are the most difficult workplace variable to control. Indeed, sales managers often cite managing their sales people as one of the biggest challenges they face.
That’s why at our sales management training we use Business Style Awareness to help you establish good relationships with staff and colleagues in order to overcome this challenge and create a successful working environment.
Take our Business Style Awareness Test to help improve your managerial skills.
