Communication Skills - The Platinum Rule
Relationship Strategies for Building Customer and Employee Loyalty. Most of us never figure people out. We just ricochet through life, getting along with some people and dealing as little as possible with others because they're so different from us. In this HIGHLY entertaining and insightful program, Tony Alessandra shows you how to practice The Platinum Rule: "Do unto others as THEY would like done unto THEM!" Once you understand and master The Platinum Rule, you'll be able to build bridges to people of any style in any business or personal situation. The Platinum Rule content is practical... accurate... and immediately useable. Here's what you'll learn:
* How to spot the clues that help you "read" other people and accurately determine their behavioral style
* What makes people tick, their strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes
* How to practice adaptability-changing your strategy and/or approach based on the situation or the person whom you're dealing with.
Sales - Collaborative Selling
How to Gain the Competitive Advantage in Selling. Selling today has evolved from a transactional, one-shot sale mentality to building lifetime customer relationships; from persuading and telling to problem solving and helping; from low-price selling to value-added selling. In this interactive session, Tony shows your sales and service reps how to become a solution consultant by focusing more on studying customer needs and assuring customer satisfaction than on pitching product features. Some of the guiding philosophies of this program include:
* Prescription before diagnosis is malpractice
* People don't buy because they're made to understand, they buy because they feel understood
* Professionals are defined not by the business they're in, but by the way they're in business
* When two people want to do business together, they won't let the details stand in the way
