Overview
A successful sales manager's job is to provide clear direction and support to his/her team enabling them to excel and develop to reach their full potential. Sales managers often rise to this position from a successful career in sales. But the skills required of a successful sales manager are quite different than the skills of a sales person which is one of the key points that this program will be focusing on.
This two day program will enable delegates to have a clear understanding of the successful sales manager's responsibilities and how to become more effective in their roles in today's challenging and competitive business environment. Over the period of the training program, delegates will explore key leadership skills as well as the essential sales managerial skills needed for them to effectively forecast and implement effective sales plans, motivate, monitor and evaluate the performance of their people and provide the required direction and support ensuring measurable sales results from their sales teams.
This sales management training program also includes several bonus forms designed to help you prepare your sales forecast and complete sales plan. (Forecast data form, Sales plan support form)

Make Your Training "STICK"
One of the best ways to make training “stick” is to allow time for participants to review material that has been presented. In fact, material that has been reviewed by participants is five times as likely to be retained as material that has not. Reviewing allows participants to “save” the information in their brains. a great technique that promotes review is to always end your training program with a competitive review game, It's fun great way to end your training on a high note and at the same time give a great wrap up and reminder of all the learning points and key concepts of the training and can help you gauge how effective the learning process was.
