Item 1201F $500 Sales Coaching Session


Vendor: Sandler Sales Institute 

Description: 2 Hour Sales Coaching Session
Exclusions: to be scheduled

Retail Value: $500
Minimum Bid: $200.00

Many business owners and sales managers believe “sales training doesn’t work.” They view training as an event—often a short-term “quick fix” designed primarily for the moment. But effective training must be a process. It must include application with measurement, feedback, fine-tuning and reinforcement.
This is why Sandler TrainingSM works. Achieving lasting behavioral change and mastering new skills do not occur overnight, and Sandler Training is built on the concept of incremental growth and change over time—supported by repetition, reinforcement and coaching.

With Sandler Training, you are not alone. Your Sandler trainer is constantly with you, providing coaching, encouragement and feedback as you learn to apply Sandler strategies and tactics to your business environment.

Item 1201G Garden Power Tools
$200 Value (NEW SET)

You'll be a candidate for yard of the month and garden of the month using these great tools nationally  known for quality and reliability. Get gardening advice at the website also.

THE POWERGEAR® STORY

The goal of our design team was to increase power, reduce effort and minimize weight – in short, to make pruning easier. Their solution was a totally new gear mechanism that provides maximum leverage near the middle of the cut, when resistance is the greatest. That means a more compact tool can cut with a fraction of the effort required by larger single-pivot tools. In fact, our tests have proven up to 3X easier.
