Designed for both individuals and corporations who want to dramatically boost their sales, the Consultative Sales Certification Program (CSC) is a comprehensive approach to developing consultative sales and service competencies.  More than a single training event, CSC is a complete, blended online and live training program designed to measurably increase sales and service performance for those involved in business development.  The training program is flexible and certification can be accomplished in approximately 6 to 12 months.

"This training certification is in line with my mission to elevate the reputation of sales and its practitioners," notes Ms. D'Agostino, who is also the author of Dating & Selling — And Why They Are So Similar. "My goal was to offer a program that is accessible, affordable, and also very effective."

The Consultative Sales Certification Program involves the following:
- Pre and post curriculum Skills and Knowledge Assessment
- Live orientation and kick off meeting and workshop
- Eight individual e-Learning modules (approximately one per month)
- Individual, real-life, on-the-job application exercises
- Personalized coaching and written feedback
- Individual learning guides per module
- Monthly online group coaching sessions

- Access to your personal coach and peer collaboration
- Certification creds and CEU credits where applicable

Participants will learn a proven consultative sales and service process and apply the skills and strategies necessary to gain a competitive advantage in real-life, on-the-job applications.

"The University of Wisconsin faculty has spent more than 20 years assessing key sales performance indicators and standards and their research has shown that applying consultative selling skills has helped salespeople to sell 3 to 4 times more and earn 33% more than their average counterparts," notes Ms. D'Agostino.  "It is a proven way for salespeople to build loyalty and trust on a consistent basis with their internal and external clients and that is why we have launched this new Consultative Sales Certification Program."

The Consultative Sales Certification Program costs $1,850 per person when training a group of six to 20 individuals at a company or $2,250 for an individual including one-on-one coaching.
