Boost Your Sales –Expert Briefing

Earlier this year we carried out a survey of all Chamber members. As part of that survey we asked members what areas they would like us to increase our concentration on. The most popular answer, by far, was sales and business development training and seminars.

With that in mind Clonmel Chamber are hosting a sales workshop on Tuesday, May 11th at 6.15pm in the Clonmel Campus, Tipperary Institute, Inner Relief Road, Clonmel.

Over the course of sixty minutes the briefing will look at new ways of developing sales in the current economic climate and will also look at aspects of the sales process such as account development.

Charlie Mernagh, a well regarded sales trainer will present and there will be ample time afterwards for questions and answers.

As usual with Clonmel Chamber events there will be an opportunity to network over tea and coffee at the start of the evening.

Tickets for the briefing entitled "Boost Your Sales" cost €15 for Clonmel Chamber members and €25 for non members.

Tickets can be purchased online at:
