Selling Skills for Professionals: Part 2 Making the Sale Course Description Copyright Ross Maynard 2021 Course Description Welcome to Selling Skills for Professionals: Part 2 Making the Sale. In Part 1 of Selling Skills for Professionals I covered prospecting, that is identifying potential future clients and making the initial approach. In this course, Part 2 of Selling Skills for Professionals, I cover the sales process – converting a prospect into a client. In Selling Skills for Professionals: Part 2 Making the Sale, I look at the skills you need for selling professional services and how to create a series of webinars to build prospects’ interest. I then cover a five-step sales process in detail: Understand the current situation Surface the pain points Exploring the impacts of the pain points Shape the future state Close the sale The course also covers why people buy professional services, and why they might not buy; and it shows how to deal with objections. Selling professional services is not like selling a car, or solar panels. It’s about building a relationship with a prospect as a professional advisor; coaching them through the challenges facing them; and offering services tailored to their needs which will help the prospect make tangible improvements. If you want to know how to sell professional services successfully, this is the course for you. I hope you enjoy the course. Key Learning Points On completion of the course, delegates will be able to: Describe a five-stage sales process for professional services Identify the core skillset needed for selling professional services Deploy best practice when creating webinars to engage prospects Explore a prospect’s current situation on an online video call Identify a prospect’s pain points and explore their root causes and impacts Coach a prospect to visualise the future state they would like to get to be resolving the problems identified Handle objections surfaced as the prospect moves towards closing the sale Understand why people buy professional services, and why they don’t buy Reduce buyer’s remorse and plan to develop the client relationship after the sale Curriculum Module 1: The Foundations for Selling Professional Services Lesson 1: The Purpose of Prospecting Lesson 2: The Selling Professional Services Skillset Lesson 3: Moving Beyond Prospecting Lesson 4: Script for the Webinar Follow-Up Call Module 2: Building a Case for the Sale Lesson 5: No Pain No Gain Lesson 6: Building a Case: Initial Diagnosis Lesson 7: Building a Case: Root Causes Lesson 8: Building a Case: Impacts Lesson 9: Building a Case: Shaping the Future State Lesson 10: Building a Case: The Gap Module 3: Closing the Sale Lesson 11: Selling is about Change Lesson 12: A Time to Close Lesson 13: Closing (At Last) Module 4: Evasion and Objections Lesson 14: Evasion Lesson 15: Handling Objections Lesson 16: Specific Example of Objections Part 1 Lesson 17: Specific Example of Objections Part 2 Module 5: After the Sale Lesson 18: Aftercare Lesson 19: Key Learning Points Pre-Course Requirements There are no pre-course requirements Additional Resources None Course Tutor Your tutor is Ross Maynard.

The world is constantly moving at a very fast pace so undertaking CPD is essential to support a professional in his/her current role as well as helping them with career progression. CPD is all about upgrading knowledge, skills, and capabilities to remain effective and compliant. A CPD course is an investment that you make in yourself. It’s a way of planning your development that links learning directly to practice. CPD can help you keep your skills and knowledge up to date and prepare you for greater responsibilities. It can boost your confidence, strengthen your professional credibility, and help you become more creative in tackling new challenges. Is the SEMP Financial Management Programme right for me?

This workshop will help you create, develop and close business opportunities using a consultative approach and a value-based (not price-led) proposition. Value-based selling means working the way your customer wants to buy, not how you want to sell. It also means: In a transactional sale the customer knows the answer without help from a salesperson (or cannot see why they should choose you), or is prepared to stay with what they have. Customer decision criteria are price and convenience and customers resent time spent with (new) salespeople, mainly because the salesperson adds little or nothing to what the customer already has and just wastes time. In a consultative or value-based sale, by contrast, the customer doesn't know the answer already. The salesperson must take the role of an advisor, not just a 'product promoter'. Customers demand expertise, advice and customisation during the sales process. Often customers insist on multiple meetings with salespeople and others to develop advantages that you can bring and reduce the perceived risk of changing. In this way the salesperson often adds more value than the product or service alone. This very practical workshop will help you use proven strategies and tactics to build, manage and successfully close sustainable business opportunities using a consultative approach and a value-based (not price-led) proposition. This includes: Increased impact of your new sales conversations, presentations and proposals - leading to faster decisions and increased conversion Greater confidence, consistency and professionalism throughout the business development process Enhanced sales questioning skills and techniques, leading to better, faster and more accurate development of customer needs, problems, value and expectations Improve your people, communication, influence and persuasion skills when approaching, consulting or presenting your services and solutions How to build value at all points in the customer's buying process through your knowledge, skills and structured approach Proven ways to gain additional business and referrals from existing customers and contacts, through direct approach and lead generation Being better able differentiate your firm, your solutions, track-record and expertise clearly and accurately with tailored value statements for each stage and for each opportunity Overcome and avoid price-based objections, buying criteria and negotiation 1 Introduction and key principles of value-based selling Introduction and review of pre-course questionnaires - KPIs, personal learning objectives and key principles The main principles of value-based selling and how they benefit you and the customer How value-based selling differs from 'transactional' or 'price-based' selling The stages of the customer's buying cycle - how to identify and work through strategies for each stage The concept of structured and set-piece selling and proposing Presentation by participants: Personal sales improvement goals 2 Value-based selling strategies and skills What is value?
