Lumen Academy – Advanced Sales Training and Zoho CRM

Why is Advanced Sales Training important?

Great sales people are not born, they are trained.

Most sales people operate with an unconscious competence. They have a familiarity with the product or service they sell, and with their standard customers, but many have never really developed the perspective to analyse their current methods and therefore to improve on them.

And because selling is a multi-dimensional skill that is situation specific – coaching is the only real way to make rapid improvements. 

Personal CRM Training

Lumen Sales Certification will help individuals and teams identify what factors are causing sales success and failure. It can help build sales people who are able to fully utilize all the software and digital tools at their disposal: CRM, SEO, and email marketing.

A certified sales person is able to use their first hand experience to drive R&D and innovation. They can be a valuable resource that can inform strategic decisions.

Such salespeople become self-correcting – they can not only identify areas of friction in the sales process, but they can help develop a positive sales team culture, and deal with both customers and competition in an adaptable and effective way.

Through coaching, sales people can move from being unconscious competence to conscious competence, developing a fingertip feel for what is needed next to close a deal, and ultimately, bring in more revenue.

Lumen Academy Sales Training

Our sales training helps achieve three levels of certification.
Each full course of training usually takes between 12-45 hours depending on the speed at which students need the teaching to be delivered at.

The following are approximate times the average student takes to gain Certification of Levels 1-3.

  • Level 1: 12-20 hours
  • Level 2: 20-30 hours
