  • To describe a five-stage sales process for professional services.
  • To identify the core skill set needed for selling professional services.
  • To discuss best practices when creating webinars to engage prospects.

  • To inspect a prospect to visualize the future state they would like to get to be resolving the problems identified.
  • To handle objections surfaced as the prospect moves towards closing the sale.
  • To analyze why people buy professional services, and why they don’t buy.

Course Overview

Attendees in this CPE course will look at the skills you need for selling professional services. Then cover a five-step sales process in detail:

  1. Understand the current situation
  2. Surface the pain points 
  3. Exploring the impacts of the pain points
  4. Shape the future state 
  5. Close the sale

The speaker Ross Maynard in this CPE/CPD webinar will cover the sales process – converting a prospect into a client. It covers why people buy professional services, and why they might not buy; and it shows how to deal with objections.

Selling professional services is not like selling a car, or solar panels. It’s about building a relationship with a prospect as a professional advisor; coaching them through the challenges facing them, and offering services tailored to their needs that will help the prospect make tangible improvements.

If you want to know how to sell professional services successfully, this is the CPE Marketing Course for you!!
