Cruise Your Way to Sales Excellence
Join us for a 7 Day Sales Training Cruise to the Mexican Riviera aboard Carnival Cruise Lines newest ship Carnival Pride.

May 8th - 15th, 2005

Are you a Sales Professional, CEO or President of a company, Sales Manager or a Professional who is responsible for bringing new business into your firm?

If you are, and can answer YES to any of the following statements, then this is the cruise for you.
You and your salespeople are not are not in front of enough qualified prospects on a consistent basis to meet your goals.
You make a "Million Dollar" presentation, expecting to come away with a signed order, but instead all you get is "We Gotta Think-it-Over!"
The prospect insists that they need a detailed proposal in order to make their decision, so you provide one. The next thing you know, it's being shopped all over town for the lowest price.
You believe that you're in a commodity business and that your customers only buy on price. So you and your people, instead of differentiating yourselves and your company from the competition, tale the easy route and consistently negotiate away your profits.
It's taking longer and longer to close a sale involving more and more meetings, causing untold forecasting and cash flow problems, and you're beginning to wonder, "is it just me?"
