The honor was bestowed by Investopedia.com, a website devoted to the financial education and well-being of individuals, professionals, and companies. Among the attributes which impressed the judges was the program’s straightforward presentation of sales training topics using live virtual, on-demand, and gamified content.
The IMPACT Selling process is defined by 6 straightforward learning steps: Investigate, Meet, Probe, Apply, Convince, and Tie-it-up. Behind IMPACT’s simplicity is a powerful selling methodology that enables reps & their teams to engage in high-level corporate sales conversations that convert more buyers.
After two years in development, the program was accelerated from beta status to production in April 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. A derivative of The Brooks Group’s award-winning IMPACT Selling® Professional Sales Training program – with a host of added innovations and upgrades to ensure its status as a true virtual-native experience – the fully-virtual IMPACT Selling program has quickly been embraced by sales leaders needing a way to keep their sales professionals effective and productive during the pandemic.
“This is an incredible honor, and a testament to the efforts of our entire team to creatively pivot during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic last winter,” said Gary Fly, President, The Brooks Group. “When the world went into quarantine, we knew that sales leaders needed a program offering that would keep their sales professionals upskilled and focused on the changed sales landscape. Though we had been working on a virtual version of our award-winning IMPACT Selling sales training program, we were able to launch this virtual-native offering just two weeks after the COVID lockdowns were announced.”
