Sales Person of the Year
Angus tells the tale. “I had to present with other finalists to a panel containing the Managing Director. The Influencing Skills course told me to think of the motivation of an audience (profit) and the Presentation Skills module told me to stay quiet when I gave out samples.”
“I kept the presentation short, I focused on the profit impact of my initiatives and I left them to examine products and ask their own questions. My sales results were no better than others, but I became the winner. Thank you. I can use these ideas with my real customers.”
Sales manager, Packaging Company
