Summary of the Experience
Participants are immersed in a digital learning experience that offers them the opportunity to apply their strengths and talents in a real-world simulated sales environment. Their goal is to both move opportunities down the sales pipeline, while maximizing opportunities to grow them, and avoiding the risks of losing clients to competitors in the marketplace.
Participants will be challenged to generate, grow, and move the right accounts forward in an environment with limited time and resources. There will be no time to simply “quote and hope.” Success will come from understanding and applying the proven strategy of high performers who are able to optimize the pipeline, and invest in growing and moving the right opportunities forward. The key is applying sales processes that are memorable, helpful and aligned with customer behaviors.
There are a wide variety of situations and accompanying strategies that will require participants to carefully allocate their time, talent, and priorities. Some of these include: responding to email and other communication, contacting potential customers, attending virtual meetings, leveraging key players (champions, customers, and team members), and investing time and resources to move and grow sales opportunities. These behavioral experiences will leave participants with a sense of pride in being sales professionals, along with an appreciation for the importance of their role.
Ultimately, the team is responsible for growing the company’s market share in the fictional island of Phredonia. Each team will race to maximize the value of its sales pipeline and win major deals, with the hope of beating other teams and securing the highest score.
