Media Sales Training, How To Generate Profit From Advertising Sales?
Who is this for?
Media sales leaders and their teams.
Media Sales Overview
Media Sales Training has changed hugely over the last fifteen years. When we began, working with regional newspapers and business titles, there was still, amazingly, a wariness of the digital world. Over the next few years our focus changed from straightforward media sales techniques to developing the way individuals sold their solutions, moving from cross platform advertising, to digital only campaigns.
Media Sales Training in the modern world is about the understanding of how modern marketing works, and that is a subject that is changing all the time.
Media Sales Training is the single most effective intervention you can make to increase sales in the short term. Companies that engage in sustained development programmes hold on to their talent for longer, in a highly competitive marketplace.

Delivery
When we understand your challenges and opportunities we will develop bespoke training content for you. Then we can make sure the training content we develop helps you to reach your goals. Our Pre Training Survey to every delegate adds still further to the development of the training content. We ask each individual questions to give them the opportunity of sharing with us prior to the training programme their major challenges.
An essential element of our Media Sales Training is making sure our delegates understand the fundamentals of marketing. There is little point trying to sell advertising in any medium, or exhibition space, or sponsorship if you can’t work out the value of the marketing proposition for the customer.
What do we charge for Media Sales Training? Whatever our fees are (they’re reasonable) they are nowhere near as high as the cost of having a salesforce who are NOT performing as they should. Neither are they as high as the recruitment costs to replace top talent!
Make contact to talk about your objectives and see how working with us will increase your revenues and those of your advertisers and sponsors.
