This class will cover the concept of a sales funnel and the traditional methods of putting prospects into the funnel. We’ll also delve into traditional sales processes and the pitfalls people of all industries and professions run into using traditional processes. After, we’ll discuss an alternative process controlled by the seller, intended to shorten selling cycles, improve margin, improve conversion ratios, and close more deals.
