The art and science of selling<br />

Exploring how you are sold to and how to counter sales techniques<br />

Is it right for me?<br />

This unique workshop will provide an insight into the highly-developed tools and<br />

techniques used by sales people to influence commercial decisions. It will explain<br />

how these techniques shape the thinking of those with spending responsibilities<br />

within and outside departmental commercial functions, such that the selling<br />

organisation achieves maximum advantage from the transaction and the buying<br />

organisation is deliberately constrained in its ability to procure the best value for<br />

money solution for the organisation.<br />
