description

The constant momentum of evolving economic indicators, demographics, communications technology, and access to information will continue to have an enormous impact on the way we do business and the efficacy of sales programs. Prospects and their families arrive in our communities with greater knowledge, higher expectations, and longer lists of decision criteria. This session will focus on the changes in customers and how management and sales counselors can stay ahead of these trends to improve sales in your company. >> Margaret Wylde, Ph.D., President & CEO, ProMatura

1.  Consumers  choose  what  they  want,  rather  than  what  they  need.  2.  Hyper-­‐abundance  and  choice.  3.  Consumers  don’t  like  wasQng  their  Qme,  money  or  effort  on  

anything.  

4.  Your  compeQQon  is  everywhere  and  everything.  

5. Must  be  aware  of    innovaQons  from  around  the  world.  6.  Consumers  are  more  aware  of  and  excited  by  companies  that    get
