James Lorenzen’s COMPLETE SYSTEM FOR SUCCESS in Advertising Sales!

In-Synch Selling

Six consecutive weekly LIVE one-hour online sessions with James Lorenzen beginning Wednesday, September 15th. Includes session materials, training tools, and free 30-day replay of all sessions in the series!

During James Lorenzen’s years in publishing, he held training for his reps five mornings a week, every week of the year. This is the system he taught them.

In-Synch Selling is more than a sales program; it’s a true system for selling CAMPAIGN ADVERTISING using self-learning and continuing in-house training based on a diagnostic process that was born in real field conditions and proven successful by thousands of advertising sales professionals. Publishers and Advertising Directors will be able to use each day’s field results to develop case histories allowing sales reps to workshop and learn from their combined experience. These experiences can be role-played with new strategies developed for the following day. This is training that evolves from reality—not theory.

This SIX WEEKS OF COMMITMENT series provides sales managers with a PROVEN system. Each session sets the stage for YOUR in-house workshops for the following week!

  • This is a training program YOU actually use to train your people EVERY DAY of the week!
  • Jim set's the stage and YOU receive the tools for daily training to get the information into the field!

What You Get:

  • SIX WEEKLY training webinars conducted LIVE by James Lorenzen!
  • All In-Synch Selling workbook pages for each session!
  • Post-session training tools and tips for conducting in-house training and workshops between the weekly webinars to truly BUILD on prior learning
  • Free replay of all sessions for 30-days after each session!

This isn’t just six webinars… this is a SIX WEEK TRAINING PROGRAM you can use EVERY DAY and continue after the webinars are over!

  • He once sold 22 campaigns in 22 days, and 52 campaigns in 29 weeks, getting deposit money with every sale.
