Training class name ideas

[Stevenj214]

I'm looking for name ideas for a training class for sellers of first aid products. The training will consist of product knowledge, applications, alternatives etc.

2 suggestions so far are:

Bandage School
School of Hard Knocks

I'm sure the PH collective can come up with better ideas though...

Get Plastered?

Boot Camp

Out of interest, are you also training them how to sell the product (or how to sell in general), or just specifically imparting product knowledge?

If selling, Selling Aid?

Hard to think of things that aren't a little corny... although what is and is not corny depends upon your target market. I suppose you could try:

First, Train (a little Mrs Beeton, for those who know about the hare?)
Aid4Aid

I'm not sure those are all that worthy, but they might stimulate somebody else with more, err, potent creative juices

Train for pain.
Bandage Aid
Selling and swelling.

Good luck with the name, but is this a growth market? I have two friends in this FA sales market who tell me it is on its ar5e at the moment and the worst they have seen it in 15 years. Neither is making any money above basic and it looks likettheir companies are about to start shedding jobs.

Wow, you mean people have stopped injuring themselves because of the recession, or First Aiders can no longer afford to treat the injured?

Things must be worse than I thought....

No, but it seems one or two large providers have large volumes of stock and are selling the consumables (like the eyewashes) at a fraction of the previous prices and perhaps even at cost or below I hear. They did quote some prices at me but lets say something was being sold at £13 previously, it is now being sold at £3-£4. Also, beyond the consumables which they do need to replace anything that isn't mandatory to have or be replaced is being cut back on.

But it still sounds like you think there's money here, or is this along the lines of "create a name and a course, send out a few thousand emails, if anyone bites then its money in the bank"?
