Printing Industries will launch a new Effective Sales in Print and Communications course in Sydney next Tuesday.
This follows its successful introduction in Victoria. The three-day course will be held at the association’s Auburn office.
Printing Industries National Manager, Learning and Development, Ian Walz, said the course duration made it one of the most comprehensive on offer.
Ian Walz - re-size“These will be full days, no early marks for anyone. This course is interactive and full-on, teaching and testing candidates to ensure they understand and are able to implement what they have learned with their business customers,” he said.
“We are bringing Shane Maher from Melbourne to run the course at the same high standard that made its introduction in Victoria so successful and to ensure quality continuity.
“This is very important to organisations who operate in both states and need across-the-border consistency in training delivery.”
Mr Walz said candidates undertaking the course, regardless of whether they are experienced sales people fine tuning their skills or beginners, will be assessed via written and practical application.
“Print and communications sales require specialist knowledge and we need to ensure that participants have this knowledge and are able to make practical and profitable use of it when they come into contact with clients.
“One of the ways we do this is by use of video so that the practical application of what has been learned can be monitored and fine tuned to take into account the personality and presentation ability of individual candidates. This is also used to track their progress,” Mr Walz said.
Effective Sales in Print and Communications will cover Motivation, Managing Self and Leading Others, Positive Belief Systems, Prospecting, Determining Buyer Needs, Selling Benefits, Selling Value, Gaining rapport and Overcoming Objections, Closing Techniques, Creative Proposals, Success Anchors, Visualisation Techniques, Sales Scripts, Time Management and Major Account Development and on-going Repeat Sales.
Places are still available for companies wanting to have staff participate in Sydney over 23-25 August.
