Handling Customer Objections
Objections to sales solutions are a natural part of communication. It is likely in any business situation that objections will have to be overcome before a decision is made.

Advanced Sales Skills
As the competition increases, the cost of acquiring new customers is expensive. According to research by Fred Reichheld of Bain & Company, it costs 6 to 7 times more to acquire a new customer than it does to retain an existing customer. The majority of companies have a significant amount of sales opportunities within their current portfolio of customers.
The purpose of cross-selling and up-selling is to target current customers and better understand their needs in order to position new products which can provide them value all the while boosting revenues without spending on advertising.
