Retail View’s Trusted Advisor Sales Training

Retail View’s Trusted Advisor Training Program teaches a five-part Framework and skills to develop a trusted, preferred provider position with your key accounts. The Program helps participants to think in depth about the behaviors of a trusted advisor, self-assess where they are currently in the Client Relationship Pyramid, and analyze best practices of top-performing advisors.

Participants learn to have higher level dialogues with clients about their current and long-term objectives, challenges, strategies, and opportunities, and then strategically build recommendations and position value while demonstrating insight and technical substance.  Participants practice these strategies in highly customized scenarios and develop a tailored action plan for a priority relationship.

  • Use a common language, Framework, and process for building trusted relationships, ensuring you are “invited to the table” as a valued sounding board
  • Build skills at having deeper, more strategic client dialogues to uncover needs
