Consultative Selling (QQI Accredited)

Introduction

Consultative selling is a sales approach that prioritises relationships and open dialogue to identify and provide solutions to a customer’s needs.

Rather than telling customers what they need, you ask thought-provoking questions that help them define their own requirements.

With a consultative sales approach, customers will steer themselves into making their best decision.

The benefits of this approach is the implementation of shorter sales cycles with new and existing customers.
