It is seen that 90% of prospects say they won’t take a cold call. 75% of buyers say they use social media in their decision making. This has gigantic implications for the sales strategies of companies. And not all companies are adapting to this trend successfully. According to another finding, 68% of sales professionals believe that the selling process is changing faster than their organizations are adapting to it.

This program considers where precisely social selling makes sense for a whole landscape of sales activities from new customer acquisitions to account management.

Starting off with a review of the social media channels currently in use the program covers a survey of attitudes to social selling. Employing an interactive, workshop style the program helps participants to take a critical look at the current sales process.
