Gerhard Gschwandtner, Selling Power publisher and founder, emphasized that sales training is more important than ever as salespeople adjust to selling during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Sales training has shifted drastically in the last 14 months” says Gschwandtner. “Each of the sales training companies included on this list was able to pivot quickly to deliver best-in-class, engaging sales training virtually. Their efforts and expertise helped their clients to reach and exceed sales goals during a difficult economy.”
Imparta’s CEO and founder, Richard Barkey, said “I am delighted that Imparta has been included in Selling Power’s top sales training companies list for another year. This would not have been possible without our resilient and innovative clients, who realised early on that the best way to deal with the pandemic was to protect and grow revenue and margin by preparing their own teams to sell, negotiate, develop accounts and drive customer success in this newly virtual world.
Over the past 12 months, we have worked closer with our clients than ever before, creating programs to help them adapt to virtual selling, but also to respond to dramatic changes in their customers’ needs, decision criteria, risks and negotiating stances.
I agree with Gerhard that sales training is more important than ever. Whether customers are still struggling with the pandemic, or already participating in the recovery, the opportunities sales teams are working on continue to evolve rapidly. And sales leaders need to re-evaluate their sales strategies and organizations in the light of these changes.
Our clients are finding that our Training as a Service model is giving them the tools and flexibility they need to respond quickly to challenges and opportunities, as they arise.”
