At Nexus, we recognize that sales are the very lifeblood of an organization. We specialize in giving sales teams proven techniques and advantages in increasingly competitive sales environments. Our programs will help your team identify the most effective solutions for working with clients to increase frequency and volume of your sales as well as how to most effectively cross- and up-sell additional products and services. We know that small business sales and marketing is often very client focused so our course is built around collaborative selling, using effective sales negotiation strategies and techniques, and group sales presentations.
Collaborative Selling
Often the best way to sell is by not appearing to be “selling” at all. Building a relationship as a “trusted advisor” is the most effective way towards establishing a long-term relationship to win more business, more frequently and over a longer period of time. Every client is precious and it’s far more costly to win a new client than it is to build a stronger and deeper relationship with an existing one. Maximizing sales with each client requires working collaboratively with your client to understand their needs and identify solutions that add value without having them feel as though you are “pushing” too hard for a sale. Our course will equip your sales organizations with proven strategies, processes and tools to enhance your team’s bottom line.
Key modules include:
- Fundamental Collaborative Selling: Achieving “Trusted Advisor” Status
- Protecting Margins
- Co-opting Competition Before it Arrives
- Turning Relationships Into Higher Sales

Key outcomes include:

Group Sales Presentations
Many sales processes require clients who choose to make buying decisions as a group (versus just a single individual). Each group member inevitably brings a different background and perspective to the decision-making process. Effectively managing different personalities and priorities is a high-order sales skill which involves a number of non-intuitive techniques. Effective sales presentations consist of two key components: What you are going to communicate and how you are going to communicate it. Given the investment required to reach the final stages of a group buying process, every advantage matters.
Key modules include:
- The Art and Science of Sales Presentations
- Defining Messages: Crafting Your Sales Presentation
- What Your Client Sees: Video-taped Communication Exercise
