As we have done with eLearning, we’re committed to being the industry leader in leveraging emerging business platforms to drive improved sales performance.”

The Successful Sales Formula™

According to the latest survey of sales managers conducted by CSO Insights, almost half of salespeople (46.2%) need improvement in qualifying opportunities. In addition, the research reveals only about 50% of forecasted deals actually close; this is because the traditional BANT (budget, authority, need, timeframe) model for assessing sales opportunities is often inadequate to accurately qualify these opportunities.

The Successful Sales Formula™ learning module expands the basis for realistically qualifying opportunities and provides insight into the overall “strength of sale” for sale each opportunity. In addition, the approach also reinforces the use of specific, proven techniques to help sales people navigate and win key deals.
