Best Selling Author Lisa Earle McLeod to Present “Selling with a Noble Purpose” on November 15 in Tyson’s Corner
Vienna, VA (PRWEB) November 06, 2013 -- The Institute for Excellence in Sales & Business Development (IES&BD) today announced that Lisa Earle McLeod, author of Selling with a Noble Purpose and a top sales consultant to large companies across the United States will present “How to Drive Revenue and Do Work That Makes You Proud” on Friday, November 15 at the USA Today/Gannett Building in Tyson’s Corner, Virginia. Register for the program here.
“We assume that salespeople are only motivated by money but Lisa’s research has shown that we couldn’t be more wrong,” said Fred Diamond, Founder of the IES&BD and President of DIAMOND Strategic Marketing. “Drawing from studies of top performing sales organizations, Lisa reveals on November 15 why the selling professionals who sell with Noble Purpose, those who earnestly and factually understand how they make a difference to their customers, outsell those who are primarily focused on sales targets and money.”
Diamond said that the presentation will be particularly valuable for service professionals who are tasked with driving revenue, such as accountants, consultants, financial advisors, recruiters, and attorneys.
This program is co-sponsored by the DC chapters of Women in Technology (WiT) and the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO).
Earle McLeod said that selling professionals who attend the program will:
• Understand what a Noble Sales Purpose is, and how an NSP spells the difference between average-performers and top-performers.
• Identify how to use NSP to increase your win rate and get customers engaged.
• Learn techniques to reframe your sales narrative, which will invigorate your organization and garner you internal support.
• Discover why traditional sales coaching has a chilling effect on sales performance, and how to avoid the fatal mistake that sabotages 90% of sales leaders.
• Master the 10-Second Game Changer, a powerful mental technique to reset yourself for high stakes selling situations.
• Leave with concrete strategies for bringing a greater sense of purpose into your work and life.
The program will start with networking and hot breakfast at 7:30 a.m. at the USA Today/Gannett Headquarters in McLean. Lisa Earle McLeod will start at 8:15 a.m. and continue until 10:30 a.m. IES&BD sponsors include Access National Bank, HireStrategy, People Stretch Solutions, Vorsight, SJV Media, Team Visibility, Sonic Promos, SysArc, DIAMOND Strategic Marketing, Bendure Communications and the Washington Business Journal.
