The focus of the 4-hour Live Workshop Training is to teach the fundamentals in being a professional and successful architectural sales representative.  In doing so, we will explain and dissect the ingredients to developing a “Bullet Proof Specification”, which are specifications that are resistant to value engineering and substitutions.   We will discuss how to identify and target architects and projects that are likely to require a substantial amount of tile and stone.  We will teach the key communication tactics and skills needed to develop relationships and loyalty with architects to get specified, and with tile contractors to honor the specification.  Finally, we will provide the strategies to tracking a specification in a way that will help ensure that you Make the Sale.
