Training Guides

GROW Coaching Guide

I developed this guide as an additional resource for an online course that reviews the GROW coaching model for sales leaders.

I aligned it with the course content, adding a description of each step, what leading questions to ask as the sales manager and a scenario that demonstrated how the conversation should look for each step. I developed the design of the guide using elements and images in Canva.

Deal Reviews Course

This is an online course with a mixture of different media and activities such as videos, discussion boards, role plays, and slides that review best practices around conducting deal reviews as a sales leader. The SMEs used were sales leaders from different regions including international regions within the company to ensure the content was accurate and relevant to the role. This was the first course launched as part of a Sales Leader Academy where I developed the logo to unify and elevate the program and set design standards for future courses. Explore the slideshow that showcases some of the course below - these are derived from my storyboard for SME and Stakeholder reviews. I also designed and developed a deal review checklist as an additional resource and job aid.

Mastering Sales Calls

Mastering Sales Calls is a micro-learning series that preps sales professionals on conducting successful sales calls.

After attending a needs analysis call with several SMEs and Stakeholders, it was apparent that the sales professionals at the tech company needed a series that addressed several problems or performance gaps that I identified into these 4 main areas of sales calls: 

  • Lack of basic meeting preparation

  • Lack of understanding of how to conduct a sales meeting or meeting facilitation

  • Lack of relationship building with customers in meetings

  • Lack of business acumen and confidence when conducting customer meetings

Based on my analysis, I created several learning objectives that needed to be addressed in 3 different modules of the series:

  • Module 1 - Planning, Prepping, and Coordinating the Call

  • Module 2 - Navigating the Meeting and Engaging the Customer

  • Module 3 - Maintaining Momentum with Next Steps

These modules contain various media and activities to engage the sales audience including Missions and a Role Play activity in which I created a facilitator guide to help managers conduct these in their own regions (APJ, Americas, etc.).

Explore some of the slides and content used including a copy of the Role-Play Activity down below.
