Intensive Sales Workshop

Presented in partnership with Heartland Credit Union Association

To see consistent sales results at your credit union, you need THREE things:

  1. Competent sales training built for your credit union,
  2. Employees empowered with the sales mindset, processes, and skills needed to sell, and
  3. Leaders with the expertise to coach and mentor their sales teams to peak performance.

This intensive workshop will deliver on all three and send your employees back, ready to train, sell, and coach.

The experience 

The program is available in a 2-day or 3-day virtual workshop.

  • 2-day: Any salesperson who opens new accounts or processes loan applications.
  • 3-day: All sales leaders including branch, lending, and contact center managers, regional, and senior sales leaders, training and development professionals, and even marketing professionals.

Day Three: Transformational Leadership

Presenter

Nick Brown

Nick Brown is a sales and service expert committed to empowering credit unions to develop primary financial relationships with their members through sales. Brown spent 15 years with a large, progressive credit union in branch operations and training and development and nine years with the outbound sales team expanding and deepening members’ relationships with the credit union. He set record sales, recorded over 10,000 sales calls, sold the majority of the credit union’s products and services, and recaptured over $10 million in loan volume. In 2015, Brown took his proven sales training to the credit union industry full-time. The goal of his needs-based perspective is that sales discussions should add value and help members reach their financial goals and dreams.
