“Helps to build more financially favourable relationships with your accounts”

This was a very useful course for account managers. It provides several valuable tools and processes to help build better and more financially favourable relationships with your accounts. It also helps identify which customers should be targeted for further business opportunities and which ones need less time spent. Thoroughly enjoyed it and increased my management knowledge significantly for a one-day course.

It was a great day, very informative and I feel I have learned a lot of different ways to approach this new venture of becoming a key account manager. It has given me lots of new ideas on how to create my objectives while measuring my client’s performance not just based on sales figures. The whole course was well planned out and presented excellently and was very engaging.
