<h4>Do you know what drives your customers?</h4>
<p>You may be surprised to learn about the extensive preparation your customers perform prior to negotiating with you; their insight, technical background and the ability to negotiate as a team across the entire customer’s organization.</p>
<div id="_mcePaste">How do buyers negotiate for your products and services?</div>
<p>Throughout the Create a Win course you will have the opportunity for an open exchange of ideas, challenges and role-plays with strategic purchasing professionals. This unique opportunity allows sales people to determine:</p>
<div id="_mcePaste">
<ul>
<li>Where they are in the customer’s buying process</li>
<li>If they are truly being considered or just being leveraged</li>
<li>Recognize hidden ‘buy’ signals, learn how to read the buyer’s cards</li>
<li>Learn the most effective methodology for countering buyer tactics and power plays</li>
</ul>
</div>
<h4>Practice your skills with experienced buyers</h4>
<p>This is a hands-on course that will improve your skills significantly with your internal and external customers.  The course will demystify the dynamics of the customer’s internal organization and reveal how strategic purchasing professionals are motivated, compensated, and how they negotiate with sales people. You will gain a keen understanding of the best way to negotiate in every situation and have the ability to practice the techniques learned in the course.</p>
<h4>You will walk away with practical skills and follow-on resources to support you.</h4>
