Investing in sales training is just the first step—how are you enabling your team to sustain that growth? Many organisations pour resources into training their sales teams, whether through in-house programs or external partnerships. While these standalone events can be valuable, the real challenge lies in what comes next. Post-training support is crucial. Without structured enablement and sustainment activities, the skills and behaviours you're trying to instil may not stick. 💡 Consider implementing an 8-10 week follow-up program. Short, focused sessions—just 30 to 60 minutes—where the team revisits key content, practices in a safe environment, and refines their skills can make all the difference. ✅ This approach ensures that when your team is back in the field, they're not repeating old habits—they're applying new techniques with confidence. ❓ So, what’s your plan to support your sales team after training? It's not just about the initial investment; it's about ensuring long-term success. #salestraining #sellingskills #salesworkshop #salesenablement #salesleadership #salesprofessional Christina Bruce

Stand alone training events are great. Participants usually leave feeling motivated, inspired, energised and ready to apply what they’ve learned. So what’s the downside? Real adoption. Without support after the training event, it can be difficult to sustain the energy, the new skill or the desired mindset. So what’s the fix? An enablement plan. The process you put in place to suppprt the desired change. #training #salestraining #salesprofessional

The Power of Roleplays   Since Covid hit, most of us have been delivering training virtually. But we all know the power of face-to-face training. Your audience is way more engaged, and the retention of information is much higher (especially if you provide food and lollies throughout the training to keep everyone alert!) The powerful enablement tool we use here at Grant Thornton in a live setting is roleplay.   In our recent 2-day sales training workshop, we asked volunteers to come to the front and roleplay a first meeting. By simulating real-life scenarios, our partners can practice their skills, test their knowledge, and receive feedback in a safe and controlled environment.   This hands-on approach to learning helps build confidence, improve communication, and ultimately close more deals!    #salesenablement #sales #training #roleplay

WHAT MAKES MASTERMINDS VALUABLE FOR EMPLOYEES TRANSITIONING FROM THEIR CURRENT JOBS Here are some valuable characteristics of mentored mastermind groups: - A safe and supportive environment in which you can describe your issues and the solutions that you’re considering. - Other members and the mentor can share relevant experiences which can be supportive of your solutions or can identify problems that they’ve encountered which you hadn’t considered. - Most mastermind meetings are virtual which is time efficient and allows members to attend from different countries, who may approach your issues from a different perspective. - Over time, you develop trust in your fellow members which can broaden the nature of the issues that you are comfortable presenting. - Sometimes, fellow members can lead you to valuable contacts. What do you think of mentored mastermind groups? Can you think of an area where they might be valuable for you? Are you ready to re-take control over your work income?

💡 Quick Sales Tip: The Power of Consistent Training! Did you know that high-performing sales teams don't just happen—they’re built through consistent, focused training? 📈 One common challenge I see is that teams often rely on experience alone. While experience is invaluable, ongoing training brings fresh techniques, keeps motivation high, and helps teams adapt to market changes. Here’s a question for you: What skills or areas would you like your sales team to improve in? Or, if you've already invested in training, what positive changes have you noticed? Let’s share some insights below! 💬 #SalesTraining #ContinuousLearning #GrowthMindset #TeamDevelopment #SalesExcellence

During the early days of COVID, Heather dove into trainings, learned how to truly connect with people, and shifted her focus to what clients really want and need. 🌟 This isn’t about “sales techniques.” It’s about helping people solve what keeps them up at night, connecting them to solutions, and making work FUN again. When you lead with care, success follows. ✨ If you’re feeling stuck, remember: you’re one mindset shift away from everything clicking into place. ✨ #MindsetMatters #FinancialAdvisor #HelpFirst #PersonalGrowth

It's 2025 planning season, which means it's the time of year where I PLEAD to not invest in training events alone. Training events can feel good, hit on the right areas & get high scores. But if it's only training, you're not going to drive outcomes. So before you research for hours, go out to bid, hire that big name SKO speaker or set up intro calls please consider defining: 1) Problems - What are we are looking to solve? 2) Outcomes - Top two and when do we need to see them by? 3) Timing - What would distract from this internally? 4) Influence - Who needs to be involved cross-functionally? 5) Reinforcement - Who owns it? (hint: not the training vendor alone, ever) 6) Systems - What would need to change or be updated? 7) Measurement - How will we measure short-term & long-term? I know I am missing some consideration - what you got? #training #changemanagement #sales
