workshop for identifying changes in customer behavior, and adjusting sales tactics to better target, prioritize, and drive sales success.

Overview:

Your customer base is changing the way it interacts with your company and others. Older workers are retiring or have left due to LEAN, or dips in the economy. Many are not being replaced, and roles are recast in ways that may not make sense.  Newer customers don’t know you, and appointments and discussions are difficult to get, even with existing customers.

Its likely that your customers still need your products and services, but they WAY they want to work with you has changed. Instead of working twice as much while struggling to do the same things with limited success, wouldn’t it make sense to take some time to understand what’s different, and how to adjust your targets, priorities and tactics to align perfectly with your customers’ new behavior?

This workshop will enable you to adjust what you do to maximize your efforts and achieve the greatest sales success.
