Any idiot can give stuff away by cutting the other guy's price.  Selling occurs when your prices are higher, but you are still able to close the deal.  If you want to give stuff away, get a job at the Welfare Department; if you want to learn how to sell at a high price, come to this seminar.  It's about making money by selling.

This program has been developed by Dr. Lawrence L. Steinmetz to teach attendees the tactics used by top sales reps who make big bucks for themselves and their companies.  Companies can't afford to pay big bucks to sales personnel who give products and services away. The companies and the sales people who earn big profits and commissions know something that discounters and price-cutters don't - earnings come from margins and margins come from selling at prices that are higher than most competitor's prices.

This program is specifically designed to teach the tactics and strategies used by sales people and organizations that are exceptionally successful at selling large volumes of products at competitively high prices.  If you have suspected your prices are too low or that you have been leaving money on the table, you'll be cured of those problems by this seminar.  If you feel your company's prices are too high to be competitive, you'll discover why they aren't and how to overcome buyer's resistance.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This seminar presents information and techniques you can use, in a no-nonsense manner. This seminar is particularly relevant to anybody who is directly involved in selling and/or anybody who is involved in pricing, marketing or advertising products and services to be sold at prices that are higher than their competitor's prices.  Presidents and owners of companies attend this program as well as sales people, marketing people, advertising personnel, pricing strategists and estimators.  Whether you are involved "hands-on" in selling or are in an executive, administrative or managerial position involved in selling products and services at a high price, this seminar is for you.
