border title

For those of you who’ve been on one of our courses, you’ll know that we are particularly partial to lemons and the clenching thereof. (Confused? Give us a call and we’ll explain it all.)

The global economy is definitely sucking lemons at the moment and everyone is looking for ways to grow their business despite the recession. Here at Partners With You we know that the global downturn means that delivering sales is even more important than usual so this issue of our newsletter is dedicated to giving you some advice on how to sell more effectively.

And what’s even better, if you have 5 – 249 members of staff (including volunteers), you could get £500 worth of training for free thanks to the Train To Gain Leadership & Management programme: see below for more details.

We hope you enjoy reading our newsletter and we’d love to hear your feedback if you have a moment while you’re sipping your lemonade....

Making a sale boils down to convincing the other party that your offer is the best available match to their needs.  You can have the best deal in the world with a top class customer service package to back it up but if you don’t communicate these facts successfully and quickly build a rapport, you won’t close the sale.
