And For Engaging The C-Suite
A 2-Day Workshop In The Art & The Science Of The eselling® Approach
Overview
eselling® is a model for developing an online presence, “expert status” and the knowledge to prospect and develop profitable business relationships via the internet.
eselling® shows you how to build an online presence and personal brand as an industry expert.
It helps you to create and build a personal brand with which people can identify, relate to or at least connect with. eselling® shows you how to create virtual “real estate” online. Each piece of property is branded with you and points your prospects and clients back to more detailed information on you, your products, your company and your offers.
In building this online empire, you’re better able to create new leads and close more sales as you meet your target buyers online. eselling® recognizes the way all people are using the easy presence of the Internet to research products, technologies, services, prices and even you personally before making a purchase decision.
eselling® can be used by any sales and marketing professional and especially for business-to-business (B2B) sales people who want a different and modern approach to generating leads and selling.
As a sales professional you already have a level of expertise in the products and services you represent. Through the eselling® you share that expertise online providing a benefit to those who need a solution to the types of problems that you solve.
Today’s modern day buyers use the internet to ask questions and conduct research on the solutions that the business needs. Where are they finding the information they’re looking for?
Today, it’s not only your corporate web site that they’re looking at. They’re also going to YouTube, reading from forums and doing searches on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to see what other people and other customers in some cases—are saying about how to solve their problems. They’re mentioning products by name. They’re mentioning people by name. They may be talking about you and your products right now.
eselling® is about stepping into this on-going process to “be there” and to be visible to join the conversation and to help provide the education your prospects and customers are looking for.
Effective eSellers have built up a trusted authority position online (that they can also use offline too) and they can be quickly vetted through the search engines prior to a sales meeting and can be found everywhere where your targeted prospects and clients are “hanging out”
This is a highly interactive and practical programme.
This approach brings the training to life and helps to embed it much easier.
