Ello, Delboy.....

For many of us the image of sales and sales persons brings to mind the dodgy car dealers and desperate market traders. I am sure a large amount of our imagery here in the UK is fed from the antics of Del Boy and Co. from Only Fools and Horses (a program I suggest you check out if you have not seen or heard of it).

I also remember playing the first two Monkey Island games as a child and Stan the crazy salesman who would do anything and sell anything still sticks in my min to this day.

Sadly if you are in sales the public has been tainted by these media creations and also, I am sure, by some real life experiences. We have all been mis-sold something or talked into more than we wanted in a very unfair backhanded way. Nowadays working in sales is something that requires real skill and tact. You have to give the right impression and have to shrug off any prejudices before you even try and mention the product. Selling something is not unnecessarily wrong and people know this.

The amount of times someone calls and bumbles on and on without getting to the point or not responding to my clear annoance boggles me so I am a believer that real solid training needs to be put in place.



Sales Training is something that AS-SA specialize in. They provide a number of broad and specific courses to get your sales staff up to scratch and working the strong, ethical and efficient way that you need to boost sales.

I have never been a salesman or have any plans to but I would want to be educated before so. Their website looks very professional and the easy navigation means that you will be able to pick up all the information you need and contact them if you have any additional questions.
