If you are looking for a good topic for a sales meeting, try this one out. Often with sales training, people will nod along saying they understand everything being presented. This is the first of a 3 part test I created. I would have my group first take the test and I would review the answers. It would be clear what areas I would need to address in training for my group and also by individual. Each question if explored properly can be the topic of a quick sales training.
I will post the other 2 parts of this exam over the next few weeks. If you would like the answers, email me and I can send you a copy of the test with the answers included. smurr@offsiteequipment.com
