Invest in a tailored Negotiation Skills programme, specifically designed and delivered to your sales force for just £8,000.

For a group of 12 sales people that equates to £666 per person, for two days of high-quality training, led by two experienced commercial negotiators/facilitators, including tailored case scenarios and video feedback.

 

If, as a result, sales and profitability on a modest £6m turnover increased by only 1%, then the course will have paid for itself 10 times over!

If your annual sales turnover is £80m then... you do the maths!
