In the same way that many salespeople experience ‘call reluctance’, many others fail to ask for the business, or to have appropriate strategies to deal with objections when they do. This session explores how the work you do earlier in the process can make it easier for yourself by minimising objections and creating an ‘easier close’. We then explore how to handle objections when they do arise, and how to help secure the final close.

View event detailsDesk Based Yoga with Jade Allan
Led by Jade Allan, this desk based yoga event will focus predominantly on being super accessible (no sanskrit names, no chanting, no high impact/sweating) and giving people a mental break from the pressure and busyness of a typical work day. The chair session will require nothing except your usual desk chair (although if possible, we recommend not using one with wheels). We’ll offer movements and sequences that can be done any time through the day, even during meetings! The session is a space to let go of any intellectual analysis or ‘right’ way of doing things and drop into a very different space. A curiosity about what it feels like in our own bodies and an inner exploration of any benefits or shifts we experience.
