Gone are the days when a "good salesperson" was someone who talked people into buying goods and services that they did not need. Successful sales professionals take the time to learn and fully understand their customers' needs and then determine how to provide the best solution for those needs. Successful sales professionals enjoy freedom in their schedules, enjoy making a difference in the business and lives of their customers, and have the opportunity to earn an excellent income. Do you think you would be good at sales? Success is built on listening to customers and prospects, building relationships with them over time and understanding and solving needs. Learning how to sell professionally and ethically requires an understanding of the science of selling, but just as important, it requires practice to learn the art of selling. The Professional Sales program includes classroom time, practical exercises and sales role-play time to practice the skills learned in the classroom. Students in the Professional Sales Program enjoy the opportunity to experience live sales calls made with professional sales people from our Corporate Partners. There's no better foundation on which to build your career.
