Business owners who need new work coming in consistently

Customer-facing teams who talk to clients every single day
Any team you want more confident and more capable — whether that is internally or externally

Session 1: The Science of Selling The Physiology of Selling (Words, Music & Dance) and the Psychology of Selling (Business Style Awareness) Have you ever left a meeting feeling confident it went well, only to never hear from the customer again? Or found it easy to connect with one prospect while struggling to build rapport with another? Successful selling is about more than products, services or pricing. Before customers decide whether to buy from you, they decide whether they want to engage with you. Those first impressions are formed incredibly quickly and can have a lasting impact on trust, communication and outcomes.

In this highly practical and interactive session, you'll discover the Sellology Business Style Awareness Model and learn how to adapt your approach to build stronger connections and more effective sales conversations.

What you'll learn
Identify your own dominant business style and understand how others perceive you
Understand the four key business styles: Doer Actor Friend Thinker
You'll explore the strengths, preferences and communication traits of each style, as well as where styles naturally work well together and where misunderstandings can occur.
Recognise your 'nemesis style'
Discover the personality type you may naturally find most challenging to engage with and understand how this could be affecting trust, rapport and sales performance.
Adapt your approach with confidence
Learn practical techniques for communicating effectively with every style, helping you build stronger relationships, remove bias and create more productive customer interactions from the very first conversation.

Whether you're new to sales or have years of experience, these insights can be applied immediately to improve the quality and effectiveness of your customer engagements. Practical, relevant and ready to use This isn't a theory-based workshop. You'll leave with tools and techniques that can be applied in your very next sales conversation, helping you understand and manage customer interactions with greater confidence and consistency. Part of a Four-Session Sales Development Series
