How to Sell to the Oil & Gas Industry
There are tons and tons of sales books and training but none of them teach you how to sell specifically to the global oil & gas industry. We started with a book, but then quickly realized we needed to offer more. Much more!
So we developed this online course that through a serious of short impactful videos, teaches you how to sell to the Oil & Gas industry along with providing you the resources needed. Then we have some testing built in to insure that you really understand how it works. This is the only course in the world focused on helping you sell your product or service to the oil and gas industry.
This industry is made up of the largest companies in the world, who buy billions of dollars worth of product and services every year. Yet its one of the most difficult for a salesperson to break into for one reason – the business drivers are different than any other vertical.
Come learn what those differences are and the award winning process Mark LaCour uses with his clients as he adds the oil & gas companies to their revenue stream. We take you step by step through the process from:
– Overview of the industry
