Vallourec & Mannesmann USA Corporation, a major international supplier of seamless tubes and pipes for mechanical and industrial applications, has selected Baker Communications to deliver training for its sales team. In seeking a training partner, V&M’s representative remembered the advantages enjoyed by participants in Baker training at his previous place of employment. After Baker’s initial Exceptional Presentations seminar was presented for Vallourec & Mannesman employees, the client saw immediate benefits and subsequently requested more Baker training.
Senior Level Baker Communications Instructors and subject matter experts will deliver the workshops for the V&M sales team. The team will benefit from Baker’s highly rated Effective Presentations seminar, learning to identify and target the specific interests of their audience and retain their attention throughout a clear and compelling sales presentation. The sales group will also participate in Win-Win Negotiations training, gaining knowledge and practice in focusing on underlying interests to build mutually satisfying “win-win” solutions, and an Exceptional Customer Service training course to enhance their ability to interface with customers, generate rapport, identify needs, and work to create effective solutions that will result in higher levels of customer satisfaction.
