Selling High Value (Outsourcing) Services
Course Objectives
An increasing number of organisations are choosing to place major 'non-strategic' elements of their business with specialist service providers (outsourcing).
Some services organisations must adapt from engaging on many small opportunities to bidding fewer, much larger value contracts.
This course shows attendees how to engage more effectively at the C-Level and implement strategies that give them significant advantage over their competitors in these strategic opportunities. This course is an advanced training course that shows you how to leverage your superior delivery expertise to demonstrate outstanding value creation for your client. It addresses the key challenges faced by teams selling intangibles and focuses on the needs of the C-Level buyer and how best you can position to win at this level.
- Learn how to best influence the client's decision making processes
- Understand the key business values of different C-Level executives, and how to frame your offering to create most value
- Develop strategies to position 'intangible' services offerings as tangible business value
- Highlight the key factors that can make the difference between winning and losing, and how to deal with them
- Learn how best to add value throughout the sales cycle by asking the right questions at the right time

Effective Account Planning
Course Objectives
With the growing complexity of business today, many organisations are finding it difficult to fully exploit all client interactions to maximise revenues from their existing customers.
Often delivery focused personnel are reluctant to develop relationships outside their current contacts and clients have an incomplete view of what you could do for them. Although sales people will be crucially aware of the need to attack these issues, many of your people who are focused on delivery will not consider it a vital part of their remit to seek new opportunities.
In addition sales people often lack the skills to effectively martial all resources by drawing up effective plans. This is a workshop based event that will change the way your client teams work. Teams will leave with a documented Account Strategy and a detailed action plan.
- Increase revenue growth through the identification and successful closing of new opportunities within current accounts
- More effectively use resources through better qualification and improved opportunity management
- Improve client retention through better relationships and value creation
- Make use of all client facing staff to boost your sales resource
Typical Duration: One Day
Suitable for: Sales Managers, Account managers and their teams who wish to exceed current performance by creating more value for their clients.
