ELEVATE named exclusive UK partner for industry first ‘Sales Champion’ range of products.
ELEVATE, Bristol – UK, July 2005 – Business Services provider ELEVATE today announced an exclusive partnership with US sales guru Barrett Riddleberger, author of the book “Blueprint of a Sales Champion”.
This partnership makes available, for the first time across Europe, Riddleberger’s break through ‘Sales Champion’ products, which include online sales assessments, CDs for sales training and motivation, and a host of other products and services geared to help sales directors identify, train and retain superior performing sales professionals.
“With the increasingly competitive IT market, the Sales Champion products are exactly what our customers are asking for,” said Ben Brangwyn, Director of Marketing, ELEVATE. “No matter how proficient an organisation is, these tools demonstrably help them improve sales performance.”
He added: “It is a real coup for us to be able to offer our customers this proven product line from such a highly respected and successful source.”
Sales Directors and human resources professionals can choose from a wide variety of materials, programmes and services customised to the specific needs of their company.
The Sales Champion product line includes:
Sales Champion Assessment
In-depth online diagnostic tool for evaluating sales candidates as well as existing members of a sales force. Expanding significantly beyond existing profiling products, Sales Champion analyses multiple dimensions:
* Value structure (WHY they sell)
* Cognitive structure (IF they will sell)
* Behavioural style (HOW they sell)
* Selling skills comprehension (CAN they sell: knowledge of selling process)
Due to the assessment being carried out on line it can take place at any time, anyplace. The sixty plus page report is delivered instantly followed by an interpretation, by phone, from a Certified Professional Behavioural & Values Analyst providing specific, individualised insights and guidance.
Sales Champion Audio CDs
Includes ‘IMPACT Selling’, ‘Words that Sell’ and ‘Sales Management’. These instructional CDs build on the seminal themes examined through the assessment.
Consulting Services
How to recruit Sales Champions as well as how to develop them within your organisation.
“Organisations across Europe are primed to benefit from the principles of the ‘Sales Champion’ range of products,” explains Riddleberger. “I look forward to working with ELEVATE to repeat in Europe the successes we’ve achieved with the ‘Sales Champion’ products in the US.”
