Spire Healthcare employees’ self-confidence soars after telephone sales training
One of the best outcomes from telephone sales training is the increase in self-confidence gained by participants during and after training.
As we always do, we conducted an anonymous staff reaction survey immediately after our healthcare telephone sales training course with Spire Healthcare. In response to the question “What top three things did you learn at the training?”, answers included:
- “to be more assertive”
- “to accept & believe in change – change isn’t bad!”
- “to be more disciplined”
- “to be more confident”
- “to be able to speak better over the phone”
- “better communication skills – answering questions, influencing conversations”
- “to be able to motivate people”
- “to have an open mind”
- “don’t make excuses”
- “try and leave my comfort zone”
- “believe in myself”
- “there is always room for improvement”
- “to not to be defeatist”
