Key Account Management
|
Key account management stems from the
knowledge that the 80/20 principle provides, i.e. that the majority
of any companies business usually comes from a small selection of
customers and that these select customers deserve a special level
of attention and need managing skillfully in order to both retain
and grow that business.
This comprehensive key account workshop is for people who have been
given the responsibility of managing their company’s prize assets…their
key accounts. By the end of the programme you will have a complete
Strategic Account Plan aimed at meeting your key vision and goals
for your selected priority account. In addition you will have a template
for all future major account planning.

Business Development

Business development in its true form
is a potent cocktail of new business research and development, selling
skills, relationship and project management and internal / external
networking. BDMs need to be able to dig out new opportunities, network
effectively, position their organisations to have the best chance
of success via short lists, tenders etc and be able to put together
and manage plan, bringing together their own companies key players
with those of your prospective client. That means selling both internally
and externally. This programme will look at all aspects of the BDM
role and offer real workable skills that will enhance your strengths
in all future business development situations. The course has a practical

Communication &
Relationship Management
|
Excellent communications skills are
imperative for any sales person no matter which stage of the sales
process they are at. In the highly competitive business world that
sales people have to operate in, the wrong first impression; poor
communication; lack of rapport; or simple misunderstanding, can have
hugely detrimental effects on the success of a sale. To make matters
worse, the sales person would probably not even realise what they
had done wrong! In this programme you learn about your natural behavioural
style and the behavioural characteristics of your customers and prospects.
You will then develop the key skills that will enable you to adapt
your behaviour to compliment theirs…building rapport; improving
communication and developing a strong business relationship. You will
also have the opportunity on this course to gain a 360 degree perspective
on your behaviour and communication style from fellow sales professionals.
