We’ve just found out that Julie Simpson (Resource iT) will be running some free Microsoft sales workshops thoughout the country in the next month. One of the venues is The Studio in Birmingham, which makes it ideal for many AMITPRO members. Make sure you book now, as spaces are limited. More information from Julie about the event is included below:

Microsoft is running a new Sales Programme called “On Track”.
 
The programme works on three levels:

• Senior Managers/Directors
• Field Sales people
• Internal Sales people

 And there are a variety of sessions and resources available.
 
The launch event, which me and my colleague Tony Robinson (no, not the guy from Black Adder) … are delivering is at Microsoft TVP on 24th November – for Senior Managers/Director.  We are running through the whole sales engagement process (using the Microsoft solutions sales model) from 0% (planning and prospecting) through to 100% (closing and effective post sales behaviour) and not only will we be sharing our best practice advice and guidance with the audience, but we will also run through what the OnTrack programme is and how partners can get involved in some of the other areas of the programme.
 
As always, this will be a highly interactive one day session, Tony is bringing his experience to the table having not only helped me to learn a lot about professional presentations over the years, but has also presented at many, many corporate events all over the globe including events for O2, HSBC and the BBC.
