Global Sales Strategies
Barcelona Madrid
for Ambitious European Firms
A Master Class, led byKENNETH P. MORSE
Selling Globally is EssentialImproving the effectiveness of the global sales team, and the overall speed of customer decision making is consistently cited by business experts as one of the highest priorities, year after year. In the current tough climate, every purchase by any prospective customer must be triple-justified at all levels of the client’s management. Therefore, having the best ROI-based sales approach and the best pricing model for your products or services is essential to shortening the sales cycle across borders and therefore to the survival and growth of your firm. This course can help ensure that you succeed in the face of global competition.

SCOT MCRAE
COMMERCIAL DIRECTOR, TRACEALL LTD, GLASGOW, UK
“Very timely, focused and of great value for all of us as we develop our international sales strategy. A ‘must attend’ for all high growth technology-based B2B companies looking to scale globally.”
KENNETH P. MORSE
COURSE LEADER & INSTRUCTOR
“Sales results are clear, digital and brutal. They are easy to measure; there are no shades of gray. Either the sale was made - and the customer paid - or not.”
RENE LOOPER
TUMINDS.COM, INVERNESS, UK
“I would say this course is a must for every dynamic entrepreneur wanting to grow globally. The Global Sales Strategies workshop really made me think about the way forward for my global business, and Ken’s pearls of wisdom are still going through my head.”
JOERI POST
MANAGING DIRECTOR, DELLTATECH PTY LTD, ROTTERDAM, THE NETHERLAND
“The reason to attend a Ken Morse seminar is quite simple: he effectively explains how to make money with your products in the world market. For lots of us engineers, it is easy to create the most beautiful technologies, but we fail desperately when we try to sell them. Ken exactly pinpoints the essential key factors that are needed to have people want to buy your solution.”
BRIAN CLARK
CEO, WEBRAVEN PTY LTD, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA
”I can frankly say the Global Sales Strategy Work-shop has had a measurable impact on our global sales revenue and predictability of our pipeline. Ken Morse is a ‘real world’ practitioner of what he teach-es and his stories and anecdotes are priceless. Our company has adopted his ideas and we regularly review the workbook provided at the workshop”.
RICARD HUGUET
FOUNDER & CEO, INVENIO, BARCELONA, SPAIN
“Ken has the power to convince everybody in the room that sales is as important as breathing. CEOs get hooked with his message and their companies get energized. This course is very high value!”
MIKE DENNEHY
CEO, V IS ION SOFTWARE, NEW ZEALAND
“Ken has spent a lot of years doing the exact same thing we’re all trying to do - taking firms global. A lot of brochures make the content sound good but fail to deliver - Ken delivers!”
JORGE CORTELL
CEO, KANTERON SYSTEMS SLU, SPAIN
“The CEO should be the top sales person, and I have been selling as a CEO for over 15 years. While I was optimistic that Ken’s Global Sales course at ESADE could be a valuable learning experience, I wasn’t ac-tually sure how much. To be frank, my expectations were significantly exceeded, and I have immediate-ly made changes in my company’s selling strategies.Quantifying the value proposition, mastering the sales process to all members of the jury, asking them to serve as proactive references: these and other val-uable lessons are paying off for us already.”
HOWARD ANDERSON
FOUNDER, YANKEE GROUP
“Everywhere in the world, the company with the best sales force usual ly wins, even if their competitors have better technology.”

The course is designed to enable CEOs and their top sales executives to be more effective in establishing long term, de-pendable, predictable, profitable, refe-renceable, and mutually beneficial cus-tomer relationships.
The course is highly interactive, and fea-tures case studies of fast growing Euro-pean companies - both large and young - as well as “live” exercises with real time feedback.

”AirTies sales and marketing team attended Ken’s workshop on strategic selling. The insights we learned about the type of customer we should target – “chal-lengers” versus “defenders” – significantly improved our performance. In the meantime, we have won ma-jor contracts at BSkyB in the UK, at France Telecom/Orange in France, and at Swisscom in Switzerland.”

FRASER BROWN
MANAGING DIRECTOR, ULTRA GLOBAL LTD, U.K.
“The Global Sales Strategy course which I attended with my colleague in Madrid was great for us – it helps you focus and get your story straight. To get backing for your ideas – whether internally, externa-lly, or at home – you need a good pitch. Ken and the team at ESADE have designed a course that cuts through the theory and leverages Ken’s extensive real world insights. The pitching exercise took us ni-cely out of our comfort zone and gave us some prac-tical hints and tips which we have used successfully in our business ever since.”

“Sell, sell, sell… Ken Morse has selling in his DNA and you can feel it in every message he transmits.Having the best product is not a guarantee for suc-cess; every product needs to be sold, the value prop-osition needs to be properly delivered, and this is what the course is about.This course definitely changes the way sales people think.”

DIRECTOR SALES OPERATIONS, FUJ ITSU TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS SALES SERVICES, SPAIN
“It is not enough to just lead a sales unit. Strategic management is a key factor in driving sales proces-ses in order to achieve consistent success, especially markets where our customers increasingly operate globally. ESADE’s Global Sales Strategies Master class was an enriching experience. It has given me a fresh perspective about strategy – Challengers vs. Defenders – and inspired me to drive value for Fujitsu throughout the organization. Successful selling requires not only skills in contro-lling the sales process and sales cycle but also am-bitious, motivated teams! An important component on the road to success is systematically establishing and expanding powerful sales teams. Thanks to this course, we have already made some great strides.”
BASAR AKPINAR
OWNER & CEO, P.I. WORKS,TURKEY
”Personally I would not have believed that the key strategies for a successful sales cycle could be taught. But I saw it myself, with the important mes-sages conveyed with understandable real world suc-cess stories. Ken and Laura have a unique ability to inspire and motivate us, and what I learned will be “sticky” for my entire professional life. I strongly re-commend this game-changing course to ambitious tech companies who seek to scale internationally. It is appropriate for every sales and engineering leaders. I have sent my entire management team to these workshops, led by Ken Morse.”

“The two day Global Sales Strategies course with Ken Morse at ESADE in Madrid answered many questions I had pondered over years! His advi-ce was very easy to comprehend and implement right away. The course held its promise and I was amazed how the tweaks he mentioned made such an instant difference when I am meeting old and new customers. The investment for the course was more than worth it.The elevator pitch and the real time feedback was a real motivator. I wish I had known someone like Ken was out there earlier, and I sincerely recommend the course to anyone interested in sales.”

“The Global Sales Master Class has certainly matched my expectations. To see Ken in action, and surrounded by so many like-minded executives, has helped me focus on the single most important as-pect of my business: sales. I certainly found Ken’s thought process logical, to the point and eminently practical: you can sense his global knowledge and experience. Clear and concise, the course triggered strategies, objectives and pathways that one tends to lose sight of in a day to day environment. I re-turned to the office with renewed ideas and energy.”
