Our Sales Training Courses
Elevate Corporate Training in Sydney has developed a methodology for our Course in Sales Training designed to change behaviour through open lines of communication and accountability. These are learnings that stick.

These sales training courses, whether you are in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth or elsewhere in Australia, are not one-size-fits-all. In fact, they are the opposite. We base our teachings around your corporate and individual needs, providing bespoke sessions to suit the unique needs of your team and business.
We Don’t Forget The Basics Either
Your staff will still learn the driving principles that every good salesperson must know:
✔ Building rapport
✔ Uncovering the customer’s needs
✔ Matching the solution to the needs
✔ Closing
✔ Objection handling
But it is our expertly developed five-point methodology in our sales training courses that ensures that the skills your sales team learns from us will lead to real, tangible change within the individual and then your business as a whole.
Our sales training courses and programs are run in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane and Canberra but we also travel to anywhere in Australia to help businesses drive real change. Get in touch with us to discuss how Elevate can assist you in reaching your business goals, today.
Once we have the input we need, we can structure a sales training plan with the insight into your business that you provide us.
The Elevate Corporate Training Methodology
The Best Sales Training Plan
Discovery
We don’t just speak to managers ahead of the course. We make a point to understand what the delegates undertaking the sales training think they need to learn.
Design
Based on what managers and their staff tell us they need to learn we custom-build sales training modules designed for your company and its unique set of issues.
Workshops
Hands-on, practical sales training workshops across Sydney and Melbourne that end with every participant filling out an action plan, a list of actions each delegate commits to undertaking that will be revisited in two weeks.
Coaching
One-on-one sales training sessions with every participant two weeks after the workshop to talk through the actions committed to and undertaken. This ensures each delegate is accountable.
proving roi
At the conclusion of all workshops and sales coaching sessions, we run a business impact survey with a series of targeted questions that will prove return on investment. You will notice a marked difference.

What to consider before designing the best sales training course:
Establish a company-wide belief and growth commitment before investing.
These are our company goals by way of market share and revenue, this is what we are committed to achieving. Salespeople follow like-minded professionals and businesses who expect to overachieve.
Identify the prospect pool as a business.
Who are our clients now, and who are we targeting for growth? In what industries do we know the benefits of our offer far outweighs the cost?
Commit to the business and its growth strategy, the people and the process that are there to achieve it.
Consider the hiring process, the retainer and the subsequent OTEs. If the OTE does not attract and retain top billers – change it.
What is our current sales process workflow?
Let’s score each part of the process from lead generated to closed won lost. Covers prospecting and opportunity management to consultative selling, negotiation, account development, and sales management.
Identify with a view to replicate what is working.
What ‘in-house methodology’ is converting?
Identify what’s failing and why.
Where have we been dropping short Engage sales executives for their input? To show you believe in them, you must first listen and believe them.
Expect Success.
Marketing is taking a message to a marketplace to identify those that need a solution. Sales is simply communicating the how and associating a value proposition. The hard part is done, the solution is built. This is the fun part!!
Listen to sales staff objections.
This is our microphone in the market. What is the market telling us? It is typically not understanding what is offered and how it will benefit them. This means we aren’t communicating the solution correctly.
Unlock the CRM gold. What is the data telling us?
Let’s use what we have as a foundation. Right or wrong we can prepare for the future by understanding the past.

FAQs
What is Sales Training?
Sales training can be a bit of a dirty word, often conjuring up images of boiler room antics and ABC (Always be Closing) acronyms. We believe sales training is about developing better relationships with customers. We still need skills like negotiating and creating influence to do this but in today’s world, our success as salespeople is defined by the value we can add for our clients.
Why should my company do Sales Training?
Whether you are interested in increasing sales, reducing staff turnover or improving engagement, running your staff through Elevate Sales Training programs will deliver. Delegates always leave feeling more capable and more confident in their approach to sales.
How long does Sales Training take?
It depends on the requirements. We find out in the “Discover” phase of our methodology where we analyse current competencies and business needs. We try to keep all workshops to a half day so as to not take sales professionals off the floor for too long. Anywhere from one to five workshops may be required.
What skills will my team come away with?
Your team should walk away as relationship ninjas. We teach everything from making a good first impression, cold calling, social selling, deep questioning skills and prospecting to closing, handling objections and negotiating skills.
Are all companies trained in the same way?
Absolutely not! There are common themes required for successful selling but all our programs are tailored to a company’s requirements and capabilities.
What benefits should I expect to see after Sales Training?
More targets hit. Better staff retention. Improved team morale. Beware, training may lead to increased commission payments to your staff!
Is Sales Training just for young, inexperienced sales teams?
Learning is a lifelong journey. We have courses that are designed for beginners right through to the most seasoned sales professionals.
