What Tools Are We Using To Discover Pain? - President's Club
Each of us uses various forms/documents, strategies, skills, and tools to help the prospect uncover the Pain they shelter from themselves each day. Some of the tools help the prospect better understand their Pain in order to make a decision on taking action. Let’s look at the array of items we have at our disposal. Together we can create an inventory of what should be in the “medical bag” of a Sandler Business Doctor.

Why Prospects Don't Buy - President's Club
Many times we have each been frustrated with a sales call where the logic of changing is clear and even agreed to, yet for various reasons, the sale never occurs. Don’t we frequently concur “I just needed more Pain.” But is that really what it was, and how do you determine what to change on your next interview? With this session we will examine a way to analyze the buyer’s decision influencers and through that process, create actions for better future meetings (and maybe even a way to go back to recent prospects).

Breaking through Your Comfort Zone and Up-Front Contracts - Strategic Customer Care
In part of this workshop we’ll examine the idea of ‘comfort zones’ – where they come from, and how we break free to try new things and grow beyond them for a more fulfilling and rewarding contribution both personally and professionally. This session allows us to understand the human dynamics of recognizing our strengths and areas for improvement to help us build stronger self-esteem and courage. We will also explore a simple methodology of up-front contracts. This methodology will puts you in control of a conversation, lays out expectations on both sides, and is a comfortable way to ensure everyone involved is on the same page.

Join us for this workshop where we will look at how training is a process rather than an event or sequence of independent events and we'll identify the manager's role in the process. We will also look at how mentoring facilitates an employee's assimilation to current and/or future positions while strengthening their sense of group membership and deepening their understanding of their role. Learn what it means to invest emotional capital in the "mentee" in order to be a successful mentor.

Questioning Techniques and Understanding Our Customers: Transactional Analysis - Strategic Customer Care
Typically, people are more comfortable interacting with people who are like themselves. In this session, we’ll examine peoples’ communication preferences to improve understanding and communication with both internal and external customers. Using the DISC behavioral profile, we start by examining the four quadrants, and our own preferences. Once identified, we can modify our styles to our customers’ to facilitate optimum communication. Part of a deeper understanding of this is to understand the language and tonality they’re using and where it’s coming from. The study of transactional analysis and how it adapts to the business world gives us that slight edge as we understand our own communication style.
This session will also look into the power of asking the right question. Much of a customer service representative or inside sales person’s day is spent answering other people’s questions. What we may not give as much thought to is how, and why, we should ask questions. Well-crafted questions can cut through smoke and mirrors, help to clarify our customers’ thinking, and get us to the right solutions more directly than passively answering questions. Asking questions is more assertive and puts you in control.
