Chip Doyle works with individuals and corporations in technical/professional markets who are sick and tired of the stale lines and artificial closes taught by traditional trainers and heard millions of times by purchasers throughout North America. Doyle also works with owners and sales executives on issues that affect turnover in their sales force. "The vast majority of hiring 'mistakes' can be identified before the sales candidate starts interviewing." The Sandler Selling System utilizes techniques and innovative methods that allow the salesperson to take charge of the selling situation. Doyle also develops and manages customized corporate training programs, all based on the principles and processes of the Sandler Sales System. "Sales management is more than just motivating your people, it's identifying the performers and then providing them with the right skills and attitudes to deal profitably with customers."
