We have developed sales leaders, defined and taught new processes, and launched new products and services. These client partnerships have led to:

  • Shortened sales cycles
  • Increased revenue and profit per transaction
  • Accelerated uptake of new products  and processes
  • Enhanced client relationships
  • Best practices becoming standard procedures

Give your sales and marketing organizations the skills they need to succeed:

The Supportive Selling Skills model was developed based on research on successful sales and, the much greater volume of research, on influencing others. The combination of this easily adapted sales model with the most effective interpersonal skills building technology ever designed has produced an unrivaled sales skills training system that is now available for delivery via ILT, VILT and as online performance support.

In this one-day classroom simulation, learners will compete with one another to build and retain a profitable customer base by establishing and defending a strong market position. They will analyze market research to make tactical choices: Will we go for the high end of the market, or the low end? Pursue a unique niche or attack a competitor’s stronghold? Compete on differentiation or on price?

Put your marketing and sales professionals on the fast track to the principles of marketing and branding in this half-day classroom simulation. Learners will join one of four fictional companies who are fiercely competing in a narrow segment of the marketplace. There is little differentiation; the customer base is restless; and there is little brand loyalty.  Marketing and sales professionals see first hand how their decisions will have real consequences in terms of customers’ perceptions and how their preferences change over time.

This one-day experience is an exciting combination of real-life sales application and interactive simulations. Your sales people will learn and apply a repeatable process for increasing sales, improving close rates, reducing cycle times, and it that will give management greater insight into the organization’s sales pipeline.

Implementation Showcase:
”Growing Topline Sales”

The need:

Despite a significant investment in new associate orientation and sales training, Alltel was plagued with frequent staff turnover. The two-week program’s content was extremely technical, and costs for travel and lodging alone were in the millions each year.

Because the sessions were offered in each region only every 45 to 60 days, the opportunity cost of having untrained new sales associates in the field was huge.

The Blueline Solution:

Blueline Simulations evaluated Alltel’s onboarding and sales training and identified content that could be more effectively conveyed online through elearning and esimulation. Rather than take sales people off the retail floor, we developed short interactive sessions that associates could access at the beginning and end of the workday, combined with in-store assignments that encouraged them to practice what they learned.

The Result:

Associate engagement in the training increased, while classroom time decreased from ten days to four. Savings in travel costs in just the first year were well over $1 million. And based on validated final testing, the new onboard training resulted in greater knowledge retention and sales skills confidence.
