Successful Sales Account Management (5584)
Overview
Many organisations spend a vast amount of effort locating and chasing new business. Sometimes this is done at the expense of keeping and nurturing the clients they already have. Often it is cheaper and more effective to keep the customers we know - and who know us - rather than prospect for new ones.
This workshop examines how and why customers buy and plans a campaign to go wider and deeper into existing accounts to turn them into 'key' accounts. We identify our competitors, see how they compete and we formulate methods for keeping those key accounts out of their hands.
Learning Objectives
Following the workshop delegates will be able to
- identify how and why clients buy, and why from us
- retain existing clients in the face of competition
- expand our business with existing clients by going wider and deeper into their needs
- plan a sales campaign to turn existing accounts into key accounts
