A critical success factor in sales achievement is the ability to play the role of Strategist. Salespeople who can select high-return opportunities and bring in business with a targeted expenditure of limited sales assets are a source of competitive advantage for their organisation.

The Managing Opportunities module of the Sales Advantage Series helps high-performing salespeople learn how to make optimal decisions when choosing which opportunities to pursue. In this module, sales professionals learn about the factors that influence whether a customer will move forward with a buying decision.

Salespeople learn how to use the three factors to analyse sales opportunities and provide evidence to support their decision to pursue a particular opportunity. This enables them to accurately assess the value of an opportunity and gain sales leadership support in their sales efforts. It also helps them invest their valuable time and resources on the opportunities that represent the greatest value and highest probability of winning for your organisation.

Programme Outcomes

Managing Opportunities helps salespeople identify high-probability and high-profitability opportunities from their portfolio of accounts.

Approach

Wilson Learning believes that learning must be transferred to day-to-day work practices. To achieve this, Managing Opportunities includes components and activities that address the following factors:

Participant Readiness: Prepares salespeople for the overall learning experience; pre-workshop communication and an online learning module set the context for learning.

Learning Design: The half-day module equips salespeople with the strategies and tools to provide advantage to the selling organisation. The module uses real accounts for practice and planning.

Sustaining Learning: An optional Extended Learning System supports the transfer of learning to work performance and an optional half-day custom application session provides expert consulting on specific sales opportunities.

Enabling Improved Performance

Sales Advantage Series modules feature application, reinforcement and support tools. These tools ensure that salespeople can hone newly acquired skills and behaviours back on the job. Involving sales managers early and training them to coach for improved performance is also fundamental to successful implementation.

To discover how we ensure learning is reinforced and applied for improved performance, see our Learning Transfer Approach.

Measurement

Organisations that implement the Sales Advantage Series also have access to Wilson Learning measurement and impact evaluation tools. The application session can serve as a leading indicator of behaviour change and potential results. Account planning and coaching tools indicate and demonstrate progress with strategically important accounts.

We are committed to helping you succeed. We will work with you to set up measurement systems to help move desired change forward and sustain the momentum of your implementation.
