Strategic deals are binary: you win them, or you lose them. There is nothing in between. This course provides a practical overview of Pursuit Marketing and how to implement it successfully, delivered by practitioners who have helped their companies to compete and win.
In this course, your team will learn about the complexity, pitfalls and opportunities of influencing strategic deals, and how they can help shift the odds in your company’s favour. The course is divided into distinct sections that build on each other and combine theory with active, hands-on work. It starts with a look at the anatomy of a deal, before moving on to the creation, evolution and measurement of an integrated pursuit campaign, integrating sales and marketing activities. It also explores the role of AI, including generative AI, in the process to increase the efficiency and impact of the team.
This eight-hour course will be delivered through four interactive 120-minute sessions for cohorts of up to 16. It includes proven concepts, group work and best-practice case studies, and is led by two of Inflexion Group’s experienced consultants and trainers. We will work with you to agree the opportunity you would like your ABM-ers to work on during the course, and to customise the content, reflecting your business context, terminology, key processes and technology infrastructure, so your team can immediately apply what they learn.
