Deliverables

What You Get

01

A programme weighted to your sale

A programme weighted to the sale your team actually runs, long and specification-led or fast and demo-led, rather than a generic curriculum.

02

Onsite delivery, no travel cost

Onsite delivery in Pune and PCMC with no travel cost, and a trainer who can be in your office at short notice.

03

Measures agreed in advance

Measures agreed in advance, so you can see whether qualified opportunities and cycle length actually move.

Sound Familiar?

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

  • Your revenue is concentrated in a few large customers and new business arrives by referral.

  • Or the reverse: more enquiries than capacity, and no agreed basis for choosing between them.

  • You have bought training before and the pipeline looked the same a month later.

  • Your managers review numbers rather than develop how the numbers get hit.

  • Your strongest salesperson cannot explain what they do well enough for anyone to copy it.

The Market

Pune’s Industrial and Technology Base

Pune’s industrial base dates from Tata Motors’ Pimpri plant in 1966, with Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz following, and now holds over 800 manufacturing units accounting for a large share of India’s automotive output. From the 1990s a technology economy grew alongside it, centred on Hinjewadi and Kharadi, now roughly 2,000 technology enterprises and 550,000 professionals, with 178 global capability centres.

A component supplier in Chakan may be managing a long, multi-stakeholder, specification-led purchase. A technology company in Baner may be managing a demo-led pipeline. The diagnosis establishes which sale your team is actually running before anything is designed.

In Practice

Why We Diagnose Before We Design

A provider who arrives with a fixed curriculum is guessing which of those problems you have. The programme may be fluent, well received, and still address a problem your team does not have.

The diagnosis takes your own numbers, interviews at both levels and a win and loss review, and produces written findings. Sometimes the finding is that training is not the constraint at all.

Question

If you asked three of your salespeople how they decide an opportunity is worth pursuing, would you get the same answer?

Before You Book

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Straight answers, including the ones where we tell you to buy elsewhere.

You are based in Pune. Do you only work with Pune companies?

No, roughly half our work is elsewhere. It does mean onsite delivery in Pune and PCMC carries no travel cost and we can be in your office at short notice, which matters over a six-month engagement.

Can you deliver in Marathi?

Not at present. Pune programmes run in English or Hindi, and most teams here work in English. We would discuss during the diagnosis whether a mixed delivery suits your team.

We are a manufacturing company. Why is there technology content here?

Because this city contains both and we work in both. The method is shared. The weighting is not.

How long before we see anything?

Written diagnostic findings within three to four weeks. Behaviour change in live deals takes repetition and manager correction, which is why we do not sell two-day programmes on their own.

TWO QUESTIONS, BEFORE YOU SPEND ANYTHING

1

Which of this quarter’s opportunities did your team create, rather than receive?

2

Where in your sales cycle do most opportunities quietly stall?

IF THOSE ARE UNCOMFORTABLE TO ANSWER

If those are uncomfortable to answer, twenty minutes on the phone is a reasonable place to start. If the gap is not capability, we will say so.

Sales training in Pune in short

Sales training in Pune for manufacturing, engineering and technology teams, from our home base in Wakad. Pune holds two very different sales, specification-led industrial deals and demo-led technology pipelines, so we diagnose which one your team runs before designing anything.
