SALES AND MARKETING

I have never worked a day in

my lie without selling. I I be-

lieve in something, I sell it, and

I sell it hard.

Este Lauder

The backbone o any successul

company is its sales and marketing

teams. They bring in new business,

gather eedback on what the mar

ket wants, and creates the brand

that customers and prospects will

identiy with.

At Bigger Brains we pay special at

tention to our Sales and Marketing

library, selectively choosing Teach

ers who are not only knowledge

able but also PASSIONATE about

their work. Both will come shining

through in these courses.

Dont Give Up Early!There are ve common objections

salespeople hear rom prospects,.

In this course you will learn that

they arent even REAL objections,

just kneejerk responses used by

overcommitted customers trying

to save by ending sales calls early.

A good salesperson expects these

objections, plans or them, and

uses them to his or her advantage

to move beyond prospects auto

matic deenses and demonstrate

how their product or service is truly

benecial.
