Consultative Selling, Negotiation & Closing
Date
Tuesday 1 September 2026 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM (UTC+01)
At Selling Savvy, we believe sales should be consultative, not pushy. Clients want trusted advisors who understand their needs, provide tailored solutions, and create value - not just sell a product.
This practical full-day workshop gives your team a proven framework for managing the entire sales journey, from qualifying enquiries and building rapport to negotiating confidently and closing business. Delegates will learn how to ask the right questions, uncover client needs, tailor their approach, and handle negotiations using value, tradeables and added value rather than relying on discounts.
The session also explores client-led upselling, effective follow-up, and closing techniques that help maintain momentum and improve conversion.
