From the classroom to the street

Once you experience a high-performance sales training program through The Walker Consulting Group, you will never go back to conventional training again. Our workshops are fun, engaging and designed to deliver results long after the program is over.

CSISM Program

CONSULTATIVE SELLING INSIGHTS

A sales training and development program unlike any other.

The material is customized to the business reality of our client organizations and ideally suited for sales professionals regardless of their experience. CSI helps salespeople deliver results by providing them with additional skills to gain access to key decision makers and create competitive differentiation. It transforms sales professionals from a transactional approach of taking orders to a consultative approach of creating and demonstrating strategic value.

CRAFTSM Program

CUSTOMER RELATIONS AWARENESS FOR TECHNICIANS

A one-day workshop specifically designed for service technicians.

Competing for business in the Age of Google leaves little room for error. Customers today have more options than ever before. Those options exist at the click of a button. Technology empowers customers with information on a broad range of products and services. As a result, customers today are more discerning, more demanding and have higher expectations than ever before.

Once the sale is closed, the real work begins. Your service technicians become the face of your company with the power to make or break the relationship. It is the service technician that interacts with the customer to resolve issues, handle complaints, explore needs and make recommendations.

Speaker – National Sales Conference

I first attended CSI in 2006. Since that time, Southeast Industrial has put all our new hires through the CSI program. The material is customized to our business and helps us win in a highly competitive marketplace. I recommend you arm your sales force with the most comprehensive training that I have attended during my 25-year history as a sales professional.
