Kyle Jepson and Mike Montague, instructors in this new course, talk about why salespeople fail to connect in prospecting calls and how you can bring more relevance and credibility to your sales conversations. You only get one chance to make a first impression with your buyer. This critical moment can capture their interest, establish equal business stature in the relationship, and set the stage for a mutually-beneficial sales process. Or, it can kill your sale before it ever has a chance to develop.

In fact, 60% of people find generic sales pitches irritating. Most salespeople are overly enthusiastic and use resume-style hyperbole when trying to get a buyer's attention. However, Sandler has discovered what savvy salespeople already know. To be successful, you must make the conversation about the buyer's needs, not your credentials, and differentiate yourself from competitors.

In this lesson, you'll learn how to properly introduce yourself and your company in a way that drives engaging sales conversations. Learn Sandler's four steps to a powerful, buyer-focused, 30-second value proposition and craft yours alongside our experts. This lesson is designed for salespeople and their leaders who are struggling to fill the top of the funnel and close enough business from their inbound leads.
