Telephone Negotiation Skills Seminar

Let’s face it – for most people, conducting negotiations can be a draining, daunting task. However, when the negotiation must be conducted over the phone, the degree of difficulty only increases. The lack of visual contact and shared ambiance inhibits your ability to pick up on important clues that most people use to enhance communication. With more and more companies moving to sophisticated telemarketing programs to boost productivity and reduce costs, being able to negotiate effectively over the phone is a must.

Our one-day Telephone Negotiation Skills seminar was designed to equip your telemarketers to become effective tele-negotiators. This rapid fire, highly interactive course makes use of small group activities, taped role-plays and personal coaching sessions to help your staff practice their new skills in real-life, real-time situations. This training will enable your people to use active listening skills to pinpoint customer concerns, and empower them to identify and offer value solutions to the customer that will trump price discounting by competitors. In just a few hours, you will have a staff that can negotiate with confidence over the phones, and deliver solutions that make winners out of everyone.
