Advanced Architect Engagement Strategies for Construction Sales Teams

Workshop Overview

Architects play a central role in getting products chosen for construction projects. This advanced workshop gives sales staff the skills to find and work with seven different types of architects. By understanding what drives each architect, what they like, and what challenges they face, sales teams can change their plans to build stronger and better working relationships with them. This helps you become a trusted partner, offering solutions to project problems and making it less likely your product will be replaced by another.
