Dear Alumni,
 
We are fresh back from the Selling Power Sales 2.0 Conference in San Francisco, CA.   As a proud sponsor, we want to share some of the key trends with our alumni and show how Holden can help you in each of these areas. 
Trend: Micro Training
efox - Support Base Map  Public Seminars Added 
Across the board, conference attendees voiced their need for budget-friendly sales training.    "Micro Training", or sending smaller groups to training, works. We hear you.

First, we have added three new dates in three cities for Power Base® Selling Public Seminars. These allow you to train just a couple of people, while benefiting from large group training dynamics.  
  
May 5-6, 2009  Costa Mesa, CA
May 12-13, 2009  Boston, MA
May 19-20, 2009  Chicago, IL
  
Public seminars are great for new hires, smaller companies, and training professionals who want to sample the  Power Base® methodology.  These seats fill up quickly, so contact  Mike Johnson today to reserve your spot. 
  
Second, we have added a special Holden International 30th Anniversary offer: buy two, get 50% off the third registration fee.  When registering, reference the coupon code at the bottom of this email.  This offer expires April 30, 2009.  To share this offer, simply use the "Forward Email" button at the bottom of the newsletter.
Trend:  Cyber Training
  FOX IN A BOX and Power Base Web Conferencing
  
  FOX IN A BOXNext, cost-effective " cybertraining" is a hot topic.  Any training that occurs over the web falls into this category.  Internet based training is best when your organization has laser-focused training needs -- whether they are introductory or advanced. 
 
At the conference we demonstrated both FOX IN A BOX®, our online coaching series, and Power Base®
Web Conferencing.  Clients love the accessibility and power of these forums.  Contact us today to discuss how these options can work for you.
Trend:  Social Networking

Another take-away from the conference is that social networking and real time peer-to-peer connectivity are here to stay.

 "#11  Holden's efox Merges Coaching with Sales 2.0"  Sellingpower Magazine, March 2009
  
"Holden's efox software is perhaps the only Sales 2.0 tool built specifically by a top sales trainer for use by sales professionals. It is an intuitively simple interface that requires minimal data entry, and it provides graphical win/loss indicators and coaching that prompts sales leaders to make quick and precise decisions on what opportunities require immediate coaching."  Selling Power Magazine, March 2009.    Click here for an efox demo and free trial.
By combining an "offensive mindset" with the right tools and methodologies, sellers can achieve their most optimistic sales goals, no matter what the economic climate.   As sellers, this is our time to LEAD our customers to increased prosperity.   We at Holden look forward to helping you every step of the way.
 
Sincerely,
 

Ryan Kubacki, President
