THE CHALLENGE
Ashridge Executive Education were looking to optimise their Corporate Relations team’s approach to B2B sales conversations. The team had previously held mainly B2C conversations where they discussed options for qualifications and courses with individual learners. Ashridge were looking to optimise the team’s B2B sales dialogue and skills, to enable them to present their proposition and programmes to leading corporate decision makers.
THE SOLUTION
Bigrock designed and delivered a bespoke 2-day development programme, followed by individual coaching for each member of the team. During the programme, the team explored and practised a consultative sales approach to enable them to confidently and competently reach out to potential corporate clients.
THE RESULTS
The team were energised and inspired to apply their consultative skills to their client conversations. 6-months after the programme, the team had more confidence to have the types of conversations they may have found difficult before. Overall they are more aware of the impact they have on programme participants and decision makers.
