What One Will Learn From Sales Training Programs

By Dora Reed


In the world of direct selling, it is very important that one would know the certain tips and techniques that would work when trying to close a sale on a prospective client. Of course in order to be able to learn about these techniques, one would first have to undergo some sales training programs that are hosted by certain companies. Now just to give people an idea, here are certain things that one will be learning if he is a part of this kind of program.

Now when it comes to closing a sale, most salespeople would follow the very famous seven step sales process. Now the first step in this process would be the product knowledge part. Now in this part, one would be studying the product very extensively so that when the prospect would ask questions about it, he will be able to give a reply.

Now after some intense product training, the next thing that one would learn would be how to prospect. Now when one would say prospect, he would mean trying to find potential customers that would meet the target market criteria of the product being sold. One will be taught the different techniques on how to prospect for clients.

Now after one is done with that lesson, then the next lesson would be how to approach the prospects. Now this is one thing that is extremely hard to do because people would often have a fear of talking to people whom they do not know. It is for this reason that the sales teachers would be teaching their students some lines to use on how to approach.

Once the salesperson was able to get over the barrier of the potential client, then the next thing to do would be to assess the needs of the prospect. He will be doing this by asking questions about the needs and wants of the prospect. He will then tailor fit his presentation to the needs and wants of the prospect.

Of course the next step after this is the presentation itself. One will be basing what he will be saying in the presentation from the answers that he received from the previous step. Now he will also be saying as much as he can about the product that he is selling in this step.

Once the presentation has already been made, then the next thing to do is to close the sale. Now in order to do this, one would make use of certain phrases or sentences that are meant to fully convince the prospect to grab the product. Now there are many closes to learn for each different situation.

Now the last step and the most often neglected one would be the follow up. Now since salespeople have a notion that they are only after selling the product, they would often not follow up anymore. Now this must still be done because these customers may be potential loyalty customers which is good for the salesmen and the company.
