CONSULTATIVE SALES MASTERY

Program Overview

What is the secret sauce to increasing revenues from clients? Consultative Selling. 

​

Consultative Selling has been proven to be the most effective form of selling. This sales meeting process involves first identifying the true needs of prospective and existing clients, and then customizing solutions that satisfy these needs. 

 

DTM Associates has trained successful sales professionals throughout the world on consultative selling. For decades, our clients have seen significant increases in revenues by participants in our training. 

 

Our program, Consultative Sales Mastery (CSM), teaches a non-manipulative, partnership-building approach that shows how to build individualized relationships...one client at a time. The skill set we teach includes subtle meeting facilitation, interpersonal communication and problem-solving skills. All of these skills help build one's connection and trust with clients...the cornerstones to successful selling.

ROI: Think of how much an average client would be to your organization.

MASTERY: While many who attend our program are somewhat knowledgeable about relationship management skills, very few are at a level of mastery. As with any skill, it's one thing to know something; it's another to do it. It's also one thing to do a skill; it's another to do it consistently. And finally, it's one thing to do something consistently; it's another to do it masterfully.
