Inside sales can be unnerving, but this program will give you direction in preparing, initiating, and completing outbound calls. Inbound calls also play a big part in customer service. Preparation is the key to being successful with both types of calls. This program shows you that knowing what to expect from your customer and planning your responses can help close sales. You will learn about various sale approaches, buying roles, and how to handle gatekeepers to reach the decision makers.
