Preparing for Outbound Sales Calls

The most successful outbound sales calls begin long before the salesperson places the call. Successful inside selling is all about planning and being prepared. Being prepared means knowing what to expect from your customer and planning your responses. In this course, you will learn about the common perceptions customers have of salespeople. You will also learn the three premises of the inside sales approach, the structure of this approach, and the six buying roles. The course outlines the steps involved in precall planning, including recognizing call types, creating call objectives and a call opening, and preparing the account profile. The course also covers the strategies for questioning and listening that you can use in account profiling and provides strategies for avoiding common temptations.
