Sales training: a microcomputer based approach
Article Abstract:
Microcomputer-based sales training packages are easily tailored to individual needs, allow for decentralization of training, and are cost effective. Two microcomputer-based sales training packages are evaluated: Sell! Sell! Sell! and Customer Oriented Selling-Computer Based Training Edition (COS-CBT). Both packages are similar, with Sell! Sell! Sell! basically a subset of COS-CBT (which contains extra features for the corporate training market). The training materials are generally excellent and easy to use but there is some sloppy programming in the package. These inclusion of these packages in a comprehensive sales training program should be considered.
