Virtual Sales Training

 

 

Virtual Sales Training is the solution to a fast-evolving sales world that your team needs. Mentor Group uses cutting-edge technology alongside world class trainers to deliver excellent virtual training.

 

What is virtual sales training? 

Virtual sales training is a modern form of sales training which incorporates high-end technology to facilitate quick and efficient online learning. Mentor Group offers sales training largely through virtual reality (VR) training programs. 

Virtual training can also be delivered through video conferences and using online training programs. You can learn more about sales enabled through virtual reality in our dedicated blog too.

 

What is the best method for training sales teams?

There are many methods for training sales teams, but we are confident that virtual training, particularly through VR, is one of the absolute best. 

More conventional methods include in-person training methods such as workshops, seminars, and classroom learning. In the past, there has definitely been a place for these methods, and to an extent they are still helpful today. However, to help your sales team unlock their maximum potential, virtual training, like what we use at Mentor Group, is undoubtedly the most effective method of sales training. 

 

 

How virtual sales training works

Virtual sales training consists of a few stages. We aim to perform an analysis of your needs, to define initially what your team requires from sales training. This may begin through an online consultation with your stakeholders, or whoever is tasked with overseeing your sales team/process. We also offer surveys or interviews with your sales teams, meaning we can understand and consider each level of your internal process. 

After we have unanimously determined what sales training approach is appropriate for your business, we have a number of methods of rolling out your personalised sales training plan. These include, but are not limited to:

• Virtual workshops
• Virtual roleplay/simulations
• Interactive assessments/gamification
  
  

The benefits of virtual sales training

The benefits of virtual sales training are numerous. Our virtual training facilitates time and cost-effective learning, which won’t have an impact on the productivity of your sales team. 

Here are the primary benefits of virtual sales training:

• Flexible Learning Environment - Given that our sales training is accessible remotely, your business won’t necessarily have to use time or money travelling for training. Additionally, this flexible learning environment facilitates the upscaling of sales training, as online training makes it easier to group many sales reps for learning. 

• Access to World-Class Trainers - Mentor Group is proud to redefine sales training with world-class sales trainers. Delivering online training has its own challenges at our end, but we make sure only to hire the best, because we want to deliver the best. 

• Real Time Problem Solving - Our virtual sessions allow for instant feedback, meaning your team can effectively learn on the job, and immediately implement new strategies and ideas.

• Virtual Roleplays/Simulations - One of the methods we have seen consistent results from at Mentor Group is through running virtual AI roleplays. Your sales team will be put through rigorous testing in life-like scenarios through the use of VR. This helps to ensure that training is engaging and practical, so your team can quickly improve their skills and increase revenue.

How Mentor Group Sales Training has helped sales teams with VR

 

We have consistently delivered tangible results to huge clients in the past, and your business could be next. Working alongside Lenovo’s sales team and using their VR headsets, we were able to develop a bespoke sales training program which tailored virtual learning to the typical scenarios experienced by Lenovo’s sales team. 

The sales team was exposed to, through VR, an array of lifelike scenarios and encouraged to work through problems as they would in the field. We also involved the senior leadership team from Lenovo to serve as an additional incentive for the sales team to engage.  

• We found that learners experienced a 38% increase in confidence after the program, and Lenovo rated the impact on job success as an 8.5 out of 10.
