Stop Listening To Your Mother (no disrespect intended)
Presented by Lorraine Ferguson of Sandler Training.
 
As children, we received many messages from our authority figures including "don't talk to strangers, it's impolite to talk about money" and many more. While they may have protected us as children, the "childhood messages" can wreak havoc on a sales call. This workshop will introduce you to the role of transactional analysis in the sales process, and how to make sure the "right" behavior goes with you on a sales call.
