TRAINING 101 – Role Playing

Like so many skills, selling ability is a learned skill. Even someone with “natural selling skills” can be better. Perhaps the most effective training method is also the one that most people feel the most uncomfortable with: role-playing. The primary focus of this post is teaching selling skills; however, role-playing can help in virtually any training situation.

FIRST DAY ON THE JOB 101:

The first day for a new associate is a KEY day and may determine whether a new associate will be successful or not. It does not matter what type of job it is. Please as an associate, as a manager, or as an owner; prepare and anticipate where the issues will be and minimize them.
If you do this well, the new associate has a much better chance of being a good associate. If you don’t, you may not get a second chance.
