CONSULTIVE SELLING THE CREDIT UNION WAY
"I'm uncomfortable selling," "I thought the credit union philosophy meant we didn't force products on our members" "Don't members resent being sold?" "I wasn't hired to be a sales person!" Sound familiar?
Get my attention. Talk to me with respect. Explain products clearly. Be persuasive to my needs. Help me take action. Sounds easy, right? So why do we resist selling and how can we behave like consultants rather than pushy sales people? What role does leadership play? What skills are necessary for employees to be successful at selling?
In this interactive program we hit head-on the negative images of salespeople. We equate selling to service and change the way people think and behave the selling process. We call it consultive selling the Credit Union way.
