Sell and present effectively at the executive level.
Course Synopsis
This class helps salespeople win capital‑intensive, big‑ticket orders at the executive level. User and technical influences often cannot purchase capital‑intensive products or services—the decision is typically made by the economic buyer and/or a buying committee.
Decisions are made via financial justification models such as cash flow, payback, ROI, life‑cycle returns, and total cost of ownership. Attendees are introduced to these financial concepts and learn how to use them to justify their products and services. Two simulated customer encounters provide constructive, personal feedback.
