This Business Development Skills course will arm you with some of the most valuable skills a sales professional can have including identifying sales opportunities and turning them into leads.
Business Development Skills Course Overview
We begin the course by exploring where we can find potential sales opportunities. You’ll learn how to use a variety of sources to identify opportunities, including:
-
Trade & News Publications

Social Media
The social media section of this course will show you how to use LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook from a business perspective and demonstrate how to use these applications to generate leads effectively.
Next we’ll explore how to approach the companies and individuals we have identified to generate sales opportunities and sales leads via telephone sales calls, emails and direct mail.
Finally, we’ll focus on developing sales opportunities from leads and potential leads. We’ll take an in depth look at making sales calls and follow up calls, including: how to open a call; how to ask the right questions; and how to secure a meaningful outcome from a sales call or follow up call.
