Telesales training Canberra for every call that needs to persuade

Plenty of Canberra teams would never call themselves salespeople. If yours renews members, sells sponsorships, books events or encourages people to act by phone, Jenny Cartwright can help them sound confident and ask for a clear decision.

Quick answer

Who provides telesales training in Canberra?

Telesales training in Canberra is provided by Jenny Cartwright, who trains teams onsite in the ACT or live on Zoom. A program can be a single 2 to 3 hour session or up to three full days, for sales teams, membership organisations and contact teams whose calls involve persuading. One-to-one coaching costs A$350 a session.

Which Canberra teams benefit from telesales training?

Canberra's economy is built around the public sector, but it is far from the only employer. National peak bodies, professional associations and member organisations are based here, along with consultancies, technology and defence contractors, universities and a busy small business community in Fyshwick, Mitchell and Braddon.

Many of the calls these organisations make involve selling or persuading, even when nobody calls it sales:

  • Membership renewal and recruitment calls
  • Selling conference registrations, sponsorships and exhibition space
  • Booking meetings with decision makers for consultancies and suppliers
  • Inbound calls where a caller needs guiding towards the right service or a decision
  • Follow-up calls after an event, an enquiry or a proposal

Give people a simple structure for these calls and they stop feeling pushy and start feeling helpful. That shift in feeling is what gets them picking up the phone more often.

How do you persuade by phone without sounding pushy?

Jenny's training starts with rapport and good questions, because people are far more willing to say yes to a caller who understands them. Your team learns how to build rapport on the phone, which questions to ask on a sales call, how to handle objections calmly and how to ask for a decision in plain, respectful language.

An example membership renewal call

YouHi Priya, it's Chris from the association. Your membership is due for renewal next month, and I wanted to check you're getting good value from it. Which part have you used most this year?

CustomerMostly the webinars, to be honest.

YouThat's good to hear. Next year's program has more of those, plus the regional events. Would it help if I processed the renewal now, so there's no gap in your access?

CustomerYes, let's do that.

Nothing in that call is aggressive. It gives a reason for calling, asks a question, listens and then suggests a next step.

Selling into Canberra from interstate

Canberra is also a destination for sales trips, and the phone is how the diary gets filled before you arrive. One of Jenny's workshop participants, Christine Rupp of Sovereign Inn, put the techniques to work ahead of a trip to the capital:

Your course content was excellent and relevant. A few weeks after the course I had a sales trip planned. Using the techniques I had learned in your course, I was able to head off to Canberra with a diary full of appointments with qualified prospects. My script now sits by the phone and I look it over before every call. Thanks again.

If your business visits Canberra a few times a year, appointment setting training helps you make every trip count, with meetings booked in advance rather than hoped for.

Experience with membership bodies and public sector teams

Jenny has trained for membership and professional bodies including the Institute of Chartered Accountants, the Recruitment and Consulting Services Association (RCSA), the Real Estate Institute and the Australian Telemarketing Association, and her client list also includes the Valuer General's Department.

How does Jenny deliver training in Canberra?

Canberra is the closest capital to Jenny's Sydney base, so onsite training is straightforward to arrange. She comes to your office in Civic, Barton, Russell, Woden, Belconnen or wherever your team works, and tailors a program of in-house telesales training to the calls you make.

Prefer to stay at your desks? Jenny can deliver live online telesales training to your team alone, and because Canberra and Sydney share AEST and AEDT, there is no time difference to plan around. For individuals, one-to-one sales coaching with Jenny on Zoom is A$350 a session or A$1,200 for four.

Which parts of the ACT and region does Jenny cover?

Jenny trains teams across Canberra, including Civic and Braddon, the Parliamentary Triangle suburbs of Barton and Parkes, Kingston, Deakin and Russell, plus Woden, Belconnen, Bruce, Gungahlin and Tuggeranong. Industrial and trade businesses in Fyshwick, Mitchell and Hume are covered too.

Across the border, she can train teams in Queanbeyan, Bungendore, Yass and Goulburn, either onsite or on Zoom.

Telesales training in Canberra: questions

Can Jenny train our association's team to make membership renewal calls?

Yes. Jenny has trained teams for membership bodies such as the Institute of Chartered Accountants and the RCSA. A renewal program can cover how to open the call, check the value a member is getting, handle objections like cost or lack of time, and ask for the renewal clearly and politely.

Is telesales training suitable for a government related contact team in Canberra?

It can be, when the calls involve persuading people to act, such as registering, attending, renewing or taking up a service. Jenny customises the content to fit your role and your rules, focusing on rapport, good questions, handling objections and agreeing a clear next step. Inbound customer service calls are one of her core topics.

How easily can Jenny come to Canberra for onsite training?

Very easily. Canberra is the closest capital city to Jenny's base in Lane Cove, so onsite programs in the ACT are simple to schedule. Options include 2 to 3 hour sessions and one, two or three day programs, typically A$3,000 to A$8,000 depending on group size, customisation and travel.

Can Jenny speak at our Canberra conference or member event?

Yes. Jenny holds the CSP designation from Professional Speakers Australia and speaks at member events and association conferences as well as sales kick-offs. Her current keynotes are Sales success secrets, Sales calls mastery, Never give up! and Sales fitness for pros. The fee is on enquiry, so ask about your date in a free 15 minute chat.

We sell into Canberra from interstate. Can training help us book meetings before a trip?

Yes. Appointment setting is a core part of Jenny's training. One workshop participant, Christine Rupp, used the techniques to head to Canberra with a diary full of appointments with qualified prospects. Your team can learn the same approach on Zoom or onsite, then fill the diary well before they travel.

Can one person in a Canberra organisation get coaching rather than a group course?

Yes. A membership manager, business development lead or owner who needs focused help can work with Jenny one-to-one on Zoom. Sessions are A$350 each, or A$1,200 for four, and might cover your recorded calls, a stronger opening and practice on the conversations you find hardest.
