Leadership
Your sales plan is ready, but your teams lack the skills needed to sell and negotiate successfully
Your customer sales approach (building relationship, preparation of the plan and its execution) is not robust, and you want to build a consistent commercial approach across your customers
You have new recruits and want to accelerate productivity, reinforce commitment, and nurture retention
LODESTAR can help you!
We develop your teams’ skills by training them in selling and negotiation. Selling and negotiation are two integrated and complementary activities. Failing to prepare = prepare to fail.
We work together to develop a coherent sales approach. We develop what needs to be done with customers (setting up the fundamentals) as well as how you’re going to do it (how to develop customer relationships, how to align with them, how to have a positive mindset, how to be resilient…). We train your teams in this new approach.
For fast integration of your new recruits, we offer an e-learning integration program.
Together, we define the topics you wish to develop and put them into practice.
