Maine MEP is excited to offer a discounted sales training specifically for manufacturers. Manufacturers know the value of a good process and this course teaches a sales process that leads to profitable results.
Learn how to:
• Earn trusted partnerships with your clients.
• Effectively communicate value from the buyer’s perspective.
• Accelerate the buying process through relationship selling.
• Create a loyal customer base based on credibility and results.
High performing sales professionals build relationships. And true relationships build loyalty and referrals, resulting in a lucrative pipeline and ultimately increased revenues.
“The course built up my confidence in navigating the sales process. Instead of winging it, I now have structures and goalposts to guide me along the way.” – Participant feedback, spring 2021
Who should attend?
Any professional engaged in selling whose performance could benefit by adopting a proven sales model.
Where and When?
We will be offering two classes this spring. One class will be held virtually and one will be in person in Portland at the Clarion Hotel.
