standardize your sales processes and Sales Training based on just about any defined sales process from any of the major sales training firms
Obviously, you could standardize your sales processes and Sales Training based on just about any defined sales process from any of the major sales training firms. But some systems are easier to learn and adapt and thread into your operations than others.

IMPACT Selling® is not only easy to remember and apply, it’s also designed to be easily incorporated into your existing systems, software, and day-to-day operations. Here’s how The Brooks Group makes the standardization process efficient, uncomplicated, and effective:

Do You Really Need Customized Sales Training?

    Without Customized Training…

    Off-the-shelf sales training doesn’t take into account the unique set of challenges that take place in any given selling environment. This results in lower engagement levels from attendees who don’t find the content immediately applicable.

    With Customized Training…

    Relevant, useful content captures the attention of attendees who realize the training will be immediately beneficial in their day-to-day lives. The training is met with interest, rather than resistance.

    The science of adult learning shows that comprehension is based on the relevance and usefulness of the content. That's why non‑customized sales training that doesn't match a salesperson's everyday reality gets lost in translation.

    With Customized Training…

    When learners can apply their previous experience to the content, their ability to comprehend and retain the information dramatically increases. That's why customized training from The Brooks Group gets real traction.

    After 24 hours, learners retain only 33% of new content. This rate can be improved by customizing the content‑making it more relevant and useful to the learners.

    With Customized Training…

    Relevant and useful training material combats the forgetting curve, meaning more of the training sticks with your team.

    Standard online reinforcement improves retention of new information, but doesn't reinforce the actual application of new skills. That means knowledge doesn't get translated into the field.

    With Customized Training…

    Real time group sales coaching provides challenge‑based and socially reinforced training and coaching that strengthens understanding and gets your people applying new skills to their current prospects.

    Learners experience a "knowing‑doing gap" when they don't receive regular training‑specific sales coaching from managers, and when the training is not integrated into daily activities like CRM.

    With Customized Training…

    Sales coaching that helps your team directly apply training to their current challenges, combined with the ability to thread training throughout your existing systems makes new skills and processes the "new normal".

    Over time, more training knowledge will continue to be lost if it's not made to be the "new normal" by coaching and integration into everyday systems and processes.

    With Customized Training…

    When sales training and sales management training have been operationalized to your unique environment, new skills and sales methods get hardwired into your organization‑allowing you to achieve genuine training sustainability.
