Sales planning and Prospecting are essential elements to a successful sales career.

As Henry Kissinger said ‘If you don’t know where you’re going, every road will lead to nowhere’. This program is designed to will help build a viable sales place to focus your sales efforts in the right markets with the right clients so you have the best chance of selling better, faster.

Sales Prospecting is about getting ignition. Once you know who you want to talk to you need to engage with them. This is prospecting.
