Whilst selling is usually thought of as a "face-to-face" activity, in any complex sale, effective use of the written word is critical. The experienced sales professional uses written communication to show understanding of the prospect's issues, to expand the buying criteria into areas favourable to the sales case, to crystallise the key selling messages, and to manage risk.

 
Most importantly they use writing to help reduce a complex problem for the customer to a simple decision, enabling the customer to act. This module looks at how the sales professional can use the written word as a powerful ally in achieving success.
