Sales training providers

[edc]

I'm looking for any recommendations for providers of sales training courses, ideally near Slough/Staines. I am looking for an introductory/entry level course ideally geared towards services sales. Especially looking for a course which offers exam/assessment which is more in depth than a simple pass or fail.

Does anyone here send their sales people on training courses or hass anybody here been one a good course of late?

I would recommend going on any course for a dummy run before you subject your whole sales force to it.

What are you looking to achieve from the training? Your end goal if you like

Pareto Law are supposed to be pretty good. A few people I know have worked with them and seem to rate them. Different people expect different things from sales training though so the post above about trying it out is a good idea. IIRC they will bespoke training courses as should any decent training org.

They are based in Cheshire but do have an office near London.

I don't have the time to try it out myself which is why I am asking for any advice/recommendation/experience. I only have one person to train and she is brand new into sales. She has all the product training available in-house and has a lot of experience to fall back on in-house but our sales team, no matter how good are not trainers and not paid to train. I need a course to cover the basics and perhaps a bit beyond. The finesse and the rest will be expanded on the job with further training needs to be evaluated.
