Best Practice Consultative Inside Sales Training

A recent national sales leadership study revealed almost 50% of participating companies aggressively migrating from outside to inside sales structures. The reasons for this shift include improved oversight/control, quicker new rep onboarding, and a desire for cost savings through lower travel and compensation costs associated with inside vs. outside sales organizations.

The increasing financial challenges of today’s dynamic markets require growth oriented companies to adopt proven consultative, solution selling training programs for their organizations. These programs must train inside sales and customer service teams to engage prospects/customers as effectively as their outside sales colleagues.
