Sales Training: Shaping the Future of Technology Sales

Prospecting Principles builds sales skills in a lasting way, where improvements are measured and lessons are put to the test through actual experience. By spending two days with hands-on instruction and role play, participants will learn repeatable prospecting strategies. Then, they practice implementing those strategies over the following 6 weeks while receiving call coaching and mentorship from instructors, sales managers, and peers.

The 6 weeks of Foundations is divided into a series of hour-long building block tutorial sessions, each of which builds on lessons learned in Bootcamp utilizing the participant’s real-life experience.

Here are some of the keys to Prospecting Principle’s success:

2-Day Bootcamp

2 days, 8 hours each of facilitator-led discussion following the course outline and live role play to teach core prospecting skills.

8 Foundations Sessions

Facilitators breakdown participant calls focusing on a different concept taught in Bootcamp in each Foundations session.

25 Daily Huddles

Participants set daily/weekly accountability goals. They meet each day to create actionable strategies and remove obstacles.

25 Call of the Days

Each day, memoryBlue Managing Directors evaluate a participant’s call, giving notes and advice to the whole group.

6 Weekly Reports

Managers receive benchmarked results compared to the rest of the Academy group along with key details about the participant’s goal attainment, areas of opportunity, attitude, and strengths. The participant receives ongoing coaching in each of these areas directly from Academy Facilitators.

1 Award – Biggest Game in AcademySales Training

Each week, all participants submit their best call to be scored by their facilitator and peers with the Academy rubric. The person with the most points across all Foundations sessions wins an etched award and Biggest Game in Academy bragging rights.
