By the end of the course, participants will be fully au fait with the latest planning methods and will take away a clear structure which they can put to work immediately.

This course is ideal for all sales professionals who want to use their time more effectively. With the focus on direction and quantity of sales effort this course is ideal for all levels of sales professionals looking to increase their productivity.
