Description

Are your salespeople truly connecting with customers…or missing three out of four opportunities?

Research shows that most salespeople only build genuine connections with about 25% of their prospects. That leaves 75% of potential relationships untapped and unmet, resulting in opportunities lost and deals slipping away.

The good news? Sales performance can improve by more than 50% when salespeople master the skill of versatility. Versatility is the ability to flex your selling approach to match the customer’s buying style. It helps salespeople engage more authentically, maximize their social selling strengths, and deliver a customer experience that builds trust and accelerates results.

In this webinar, you’ll discover how versatility transforms selling conversations and strengthens customer relationships, directly impacting win rates and long-term loyalty.

You will learn how to:
  • Use versatility to boost sales effectiveness
  • Recognize customers’ buying styles and tailor your approach
  • Quickly build rapport with prospects and decision-makers at all levels
  • Communicate with impact and persuasion, no matter the customer’s style
