Skills to Succeed at Selling
For many businesses, an effective sales team is key to their overall success. However, many people are not quite sure what kind of skills salespeople require to close a sale.
Contrary to popular belief, selling is not a simple job – it is a discipline that demands a set of specific competencies combined with a robust personality. In this course, you will learn about the core skills that are essential for any salesperson, wherever they are in their career.
These skills are essential for anyone who wants to identify a customer's needs, offer them the right product or service, and close the sale. Ultimately, successful selling comes down to outstanding communication skills, product knowledge and perseverance.
You Will Learn:
- The top 10 skills every salesperson needs to succeed and why success in sales is contingent on a basic knowledge of human psychology
- How to quickly build a relationship with the client that will foster a sense of trust and mutual cooperation
- Why it is important to take an honest inventory of your weaknesses, how to learn from your mistakes and how to seek support from a professional mentor
Benefits of Taking This Course:
- You will learn why specific skills are tied to success in sales-based jobs and why sales is not a viable career option for everyone
- You will learn how to develop skills that will maximise your chances of making a sale, thus increasing your company's profits
- You will learn how to assess your own skills and take a proactive approach to improving your approach to the selling process

Great insight into Fraud. Having only dealt with certain areas of fraud such as insurance fraud I am finding this course to be a great help to increase my knowledge and understanding of other types of fraud and areas/industries affected.
Hopefully this will help me to look at pursuing jobs that I would not have the confidence to apply for due to lack of knowledge or understanding.

This course was a good introduction to payroll and the content was easy to read and well set out. I would recommend this course to anyone that would like to start out in payroll.

This is brilliant I couldn't of had a better course to do having the videos as well help so much
Ellis Gardiner
It is quite an interesting course! I have learnt a lot since I have seen the precise explanation and video illustration, and I have enough time to learn so well as I did it in my own pace. I've fully understood the whole concept on each module. By the time I've finished the last module, I'm quite prepared for the exam because everything I've learnt has already been absorbed into my mind. Even once I've finished the course, I'm looking forward to learn more by reviewing the course again. Now, I can properly apply the techniques into our massage spa business.
Ma Margarita
This is a fantastic course, it is incredible value for money and it will give you all the information you need to be able to pursue the career of Teaching Assistant.
Being able to do it all in your own time makes it a lot less stressful if you're trying to fit it around work and life in general and the addition of worksheets throughout helps you see which areas need improvement before you take the final test.

This is a great course for any level of knowledge. Very easy to navigate, great practical tasks and explanations are very clear. You can revise any module with no problem. The test wasn’t too hard if you completed every module. It may be handy to make some notes before you start. Overall I'm very happy with my choice. Thank you New skills for my New skills :)
Julia Bobkova
Wow what an incredible insight for the start of anyone's journey in property. This course gives you so much information and there are tests and questions on each of the modules. The course is very easy to follow and well laid out. You can actually make notes on the pages of each module using the notes tab! I am very excited to say that I passed and I only spent one week on this course. I will print all the PDF information and keep it in a file with my certificate. I feel very confident for my future plans now I have completed this course.

The videos were clear and concise, and the downloadable worksheets reinforced what I had learned as I was able to put pen to paper. Overall, a fantastic course for a great price! I am looking forward to taking on my next one.

The course was clearly set out with helpful end of week tests which built my knowledge. Being dyslexic I found the course was set out in an easy to understand way. I was able to pass the test on my first attempt. The downloaded pdf are a useful resource that you can keep forever. Looking forward to the next course

Also each module consists of quick test and assignment which enables you to gain knowledge. Finally I would like to thank the New Skills Academy team.
