How to Sell – From Cold Calling to Contracts

How to Sell – From Cold Calling to Contracts

Introduction

Are you selling up to your potential? Are your colleagues closing more deals than you? Does the sales training you get consist only of “make more calls” and “ganbatte kudasai”?

Sales training must be taught by someone who has been in the trenches, someone who has made 1,000’s of cold calls and 100’s of personal presentations (both to the foreign companies and Japanese companies), someone who knows how it really works from personal experience.

In this sales seminar, we are getting back to the basics; we will teach how to prospect, get through the gate keeper to the decision makers, how to qualify if the person is a decision maker, overcome objections and close the sale.

CareerCross has arranged for two of Japan’s leading sales skills trainers to provide an overview of several areas of professional selling with practical tips and advice that will help you succeed in sales!

How much is it worth to be able to turn more leads to sales? Join us for one afternoon designed to increase your sales.
