Selling Skills for Professionals: Part 1 Prospecting   Course Description   Copyright Ross Maynard 2021   Course Description Welcome to Selling Skills for Professionals: Part 1 Prospecting. If you are an accountant, a lawyer, a consulting engineer, a surveyor, an actuary, a management consultant, an events organiser, an HR professional or any other form of professional businessperson, and you need to identify and develop new clients, then this course is for you This is part 1 of a two-part course on selling skills for professionals. In Part 1 I cover prospecting, that is identifying potential future clients and making the initial approach. In Part 2 of Selling Skills for Professionals I cover the sales process once you have a make contact with a potential client. Selling Skills for Professionals covers high involvement purchases where the commitment is a significant one for the purchaser. This covers relatively expensive business investments, but also purchase agreements which the purchaser feels will have a significant impact on their business – for example engaging an accountant or a lawyer, or a management consultant, and so on. With a high involvement purchase, the client typically will consider a range of alternatives; will review a variety of information sources; and will evaluate product and service attributes in detail. This means that there is a relatively high barrier to surmount to get the potential client’s attention. A solid approach to prospecting and a well-structured sales process can increase that conversion rate and enhance your success in securing clients who will remain with you for the long term. That is the purpose of this course.   I hope you enjoy the course.     Key Learning Points  On completion of the course, delegates will be able to: * Describe the scope and purpose of sales prospecting for professional services * Understand the five rules of selling professional services * Develop a branding statement for themselves and their organisation * Define the criteria for the clients they wish to target * Appreciate the importance of client pain points and how to identify them * Prepare materials for prospecting * Create a cold calling script for prospecting * Write a cold email or LinkedIn message to prospects including a strong subject line * Understand the sorts of questions they can use to stimulate client engagement in a discussion * Move prospects onto the next stage of the selling process     Curriculum Module 1: First Principles in Selling Professional Services Lesson 1: The Five Rules of Selling Professional Services Lesson 2: The Five Rules of Selling Professional Services Lesson 3: Branding   Module 2: Getting Ready to Prospect Lesson 4: Identifying Prospects Lesson 5: Client Pain Points and the Purpose of Prospecting Lesson 6: Preparing to Prospect   Module 3: Making the Approach Lesson 7: Seven Seconds to make an Impact Lesson 8: Crafting the Message: Cold Calling Lesson 9: Crafting the Message: Cold Email Lesson 10: Sample Scripts for Cold Email  Lesson 11: Trigger Questions Lesson 12: Getting Ready to Sell: The Next Stage  Lesson 13: Key Learning Points in Prospecting     Pre-Course Requirements There are no pre-course requirements     Additional Resources None     Course Tutor Your tutor is Ross Maynard.
