<p>The Sales Accelerator programme is a fresh approach to improving business development productivity. It focuses on identifying and using a series of business productivity metrics in order to build a clear action plan for improving sales results - typically within 90 days. The metrics are grouped under three headings:</p><p>The basic principle is that a small improvement in each area can lead to a significant increase in sales results and productivity. And the object of the programme is to show how best to achieve that.</p><p>The programme therefore looks at each of these three areas in turn, spending a day on each.</p><p>Suitable for any and all businesses and all levels of experience and expertise, this is a remarkably practical and hands-on programme. During the workshop, participants discuss, review and apply many proven sales and marketing techniques and personal selling ideas. The goal is to generate and commit to changes and actions that can lead to a 10-30% increase in the next three to six months.</p><p>There's also a consultancy option, rather than the workshop-based programme. See below for details.</p><section>
                    <h3>Day one - Activity</h3>Key objective<p>This first module introduces the Sales Accelerator model.

Also includes price negotiation, overcoming objections and obstacles to gaining agreement. The module begins with a learning review, sharing participants' experiences over the last four weeks in applying the new techniques and skills acquired during the first two modules. This is an opportunity to revisit particularly challenging areas as well as to share and celebrate successes.</p><p>Main elements</p><ul><li>Structuring and preparing for negotiating a deal and knowing when and how to move into the 'end-game' mode.</li><li>Anticipate and answer customer objections and questions more confidently.</li><li>Build more credibility and proof into your business process to reduce 'buyer's remorse' and speed-up decision-making.</li><li>Being more assertive and developing better instincts and strategic thinking in progressing quotations and proposals.</li></ul><p>Key learning points</p><ul><li>Smart ways to position price, emphasise value and be a strong player without being the cheapest.</li><li>Becoming more assertive in closing deals, and the importance of organised follow-up on the telephone.</li><li>Qualify pipeline opportunities with more accuracy, using a proven check-list.</li><li>Use an 'option generator' to simplify complex proposals, increase business value and close business faster.</li><li>Writing more effective sales proposal documents and quotations.</li><li>How best to draw-out, understand, isolate and answer customer objections, negotiate points and concerns.</li><li>Practical methods of asking for agreement and closing a sale</li></ul>

With this software we explore the uses of words, shapes, textures, forms, sizes and colours to communicate by combining ideas and images to make a new concept. Graphic design through common misconception is not just about layout and typography, but much more about ideas behind visual meaning. Graphic design can make a company more successful in the world if it makes communication smart, attractive and able to captivate its audience. Graphic design can effectively be used by businesses to make (or break) their brand identity, increase sales, promote web traffic or promote services and products through advertising on their websites to convey complex data to its readers in a clear way.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Elements of graphic design include:&nbsp;<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Colour, Size, Texture, Line, Shape, Space and, Form</strong>. It is important that each element is understood correctly, and this is one of the key principles we teach on our graphic design course. In other terms, graphic design communicates certain ideas or messages through visuals. These visuals can be as simple as a business logo, or as complex as pages of web design.
