About the B2B Sales Workshop

The B2B Sales Workshop combines e-learning (3 weeks online preparation), classroom discussions with one-on-one coaching sessions to provide participants with theoretical sales foundations and a hands-on approach to commercialisation.

You will learn to build a Go-To-Market strategy: this includes defining the value perception for your product or service offering, your target customers and the action plan of your approach. You will develop methods and techniques on how to manage the process of selling your solution (product or services). Get personal coaching for your own company.

Entrepreneurs who participate seize the opportunity to:
• Validate your existing business model
• Conduct further market research
• Test out your commercialisation strategy
• Gain valuable insights from industry experts and successful entrepreneurs
Including the online preparation, the course will run for a total of four weeks.

• Identifying a Target Market
