We’ve chosen these dates as clients tell us things often get a bit quieter just before Christmas and as a result it is a better time for training.  This course will cover all the key elements of communication skills and how to structure an effective sales call. We’ll be covering top tips and techniques for dealing with objections, listening skills, questioning skills – what the different questions are, when to use them and how to structure a powerful telephone sales call around good questioning. Add into that an introduction to the 2 stage process for directing the conversation, and a couple of hours on how to structure powerful telesales and telemarketing calls and you have the basic tools to make sure you convert more opportunities that come your way on the phone. Contact us for more details on 01858 461148. You can download a copy of a telesales course schedule directly from the site http://www.tomarket.co.uk/course-schedules.php

Smile – if you want your customers to bother with you !

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

This one is a great piece of common sense advice for customer service agents and for call centre training. Sonia Brookes came on a course in Burton on Trent recently and sent this story in.

 ”Recently I had a lady call me from a market research company. I have worked in market research, so I usually give them my time. However in this instance I refused, based on the fact listening to her monotone voice was a little short of depressing. The moral of the story is always smile whilst your talking to a customer and it reflects in your voice.”

This is one of the key things we discuss early on our training courses for telesales, telemarketing and customer service teams. Remember the grey voice ?! (an exercise those of you have attended the course will no doubt remember.) This is so important that in this instance it prevented the caller even getting past first base ! Dreadful ! There is an audio CD that covers this subject on the Associated Learning Systems website. Check it out http://www.associatedlearningsystems.co.uk/product_detail.asp?ProdID=20 For just £16.99 you will hear about the fundamentals of communication. This person obviously hadn’t !

 

Positive attitude – develop one !

It’s really important to have a positive attitude in your dealings with your customers. In customer service training this is one of the most important points that comes out of our training. So if the customer service personnel think it’s key – it’s key !
