The first rule about Sales Club is EVERYONE talks about Sales Club!

North Cheshire Chamber of Commerce are partnering up with Sales Geek again to host Sales Club 2024.

Sales Club is a quarterly event exclusively for the local Chamber of Commerce business community that has been designed to help you and your business be better at sales and ensure that 2024 is a year of business growth. It is designed for leaders, business owners and anyone that does ‘sales’ as part of their role and is also ideal for those looking to polish up on existing skills or learn new ideas.

This is the 3rd Masterclass of a series of 4, offering an interactive 1.5 hours with fun and engaging content geared around proven world class practices that will make you think how you approach sales in your organisation. and is being held at Sutton Hall, Macclesfield - 1st February 2024.

The session will be facilitated by Jon Whitby and will focus on ‘What’s Your CURE?’ -  Understand what makes your product/service of value to your customers.  Without understanding your value proposition, you can’t leverage it! There will also be plenty of time for networking and for a Q&A where you’re encouraged to discuss your sales challenges

This session is £10+VAT for North Cheshire Chamber of Commerce Members and £15+ VAT for non-members and includes refreshments on arrival - click here to book your spot.

Booking policy: Cancellations must be made 7 days prior to the training session to free up a spot for someone else that might like to attend.

We're experimenting with a new format for our event at The Picturedrome on the 11th January. One of our members, Andrew Thorp, will explain this on the day but it essentially means the mid-section of the event will include short presentations from 4 pre-arranged volunteers, each of whom will deliver some 'nuggets' or insights from within their business.

For example, if you were an estate agent, you'd teach us 3 eye-opening things about buying or selling a house. It's a different way of promoting your business. You're not just informing us; you're educating us! See you on the 11th Jan.

During this event you'll have plenty of time to network over a light breakfast, and the Chamber team will be on hand to talk about membership – and some of the upcoming events we have in store for 2024.

This event is £10+VAT for Members and £15+VAT for Non-Members and is bookable by Eventbrite - click here to make your booking. We invite everyone to bring a guest to this event - Chamber members can book their guest ticket at the member rate.
