Event information

Your business lives and dies by your ability to sell. Shouldn’t you, therefore, have this down to a science?

Understanding how buyers buy is key to your sales success. Unfortunately, your customers are not as rational as they, or you, would like to think.  

Science is clear. Much of human decision-making takes place at a non-conscious level. This means that your buyers often have no real idea why they make the choices they do. The opportunity for you then is to learn how people are influenced so that you can apply science to your advantage.

In this course, you’ll learn about the science of sales. You will explore how the latest thinking in behavioural economics and neuroscience offers simple improvements you can make throughout your sales workflow.

You will learn eight key persuasion concepts: reciprocity, liking, social proof, authority, consistency, scarcity, compare/contrast, and because. You will see how, by combining these concepts together, you can improve your prospecting, lead qualification and closing rates. You’ll also better be better equipped to handle objections, negotiate fairly and ask for referrals.

If you are tired of long sales cycles, poor conversion rates and having to justify your price, then this psychology-based training programme will transform how you sell.
