Sales and Persuasion Skills for Startups هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

Start-ups and entrepreneurs are a mixed bunch. But one thing the winners all have in common Is – the ability to influence others. The ability to sell their ideas, sell their products, sell their service.

And the graveyard of business startups is littered with companies that failed to grasp that most important, essential skill - the art of persuasion.

That's what this course delivers in spades. The ability to get people to say 'YES'.

So – what is unique about this course?

• Unlike so many courses, Len Smith is always available should you have any queries. Just email him - he's here to help.
• It is a living, growing course - unlike any other course, as students suggest new topics, Len adds them as bonus lessons (he calls them fireside chats). No extra cost, the course just keeps on improving.
• It is not designed for salespeople wanting to boost their career. Salesman of the Month!
• It’s not ‘evangelical’ and it’s not designed to tell you how wonderful you are – what fantastic sales talents you’ve got hidden away, just waiting to be revealed. 

No – it’s for real people. Entrepreneurs. Startups. Businesspeople - starting out - who recognise they have a crying need to learn how to get other people to say YES. And that’s what we mean by sales techniques in this course. Not just selling product – although, that IS important, so we do cover all the essentials about selling your product - but it’s also about getting others to buy into your ideas.
