Recent years have been marked by a lot of changes, distractions, and new challenges. If it were up to us, we’d title them, “The Years Sellers Plugged In.” Not only literally, with the wholesale shift from live to virtual selling, but also figuratively in the sense sellers had to become even more keenly aware of buyer wants and needs to be successful in a virtual environment.
This list of resources reflects sellers’ hunger for knowledge and skill development in all areas of virtual selling, from leading effective virtual meetings and asking strong questions to tackling challenges and developing strong virtual relationships.
We hope you'll find this list to be a valuable resource as you prepare for your own virtual outreach.
