Top Sales Trainer John Costigan Announces A One Day Southeast Sales Seminar

Costigan LIVE™ Seminar Series Kicks off National Tour in North Carolina;
Attendance Limited to First 200 Registrants

Raleigh, N.C. – March 2, 2006 – John Costigan Companies, a leading provider of sales training to the Fortune 500, today announced that North Carolina will be the first stop in the national Costigan LIVE™ Seminar Series.  Kicking off in downtown Raleigh on April 11 at Exploris, Costigan LIVE™ seminars offer the general public a chance to watch and learn from renowned sales coach John Costigan.  Through LIVE, unscripted phone calls to their actual prospects and customers, attendees will be shown exactly what to say – and how to say it – to move deals forward, shorten the sales cycle and turn prospects into customers.

 

John Costigan, founder and president of John Costigan Companies, has led thousands of sales training classes around the world, for the best and brightest of companies including Tommy Hilfiger, Slazenger Golf, ExxonMobile, Standard Register and SAS.  The Costigan LIVE™ Seminar Series is grounded in John’s exclusive Call to Action™ methodology by which he calls customers and prospects provided by attendees – live and onstage – and moves relationships to the next level.  John Costigan is the only sales trainer that actually shows, rather than tells, his students how to get past the gatekeeper and reach the actual decision maker, achieve a 70 percent return rate on voicemail messages and get invited in for appointments. 

 

"The Costigan LIVE™ Seminar Series presents sales professionals with the tools, confidence and motivation they need to become better salespeople today than they were yesterday," says Costigan.  "I do not preach the tired old rhetoric and theories that you’ll hear in many sales training sessions, where at the end of the day, attendees leave pumped up but lack the know-how to apply what they have learned to their lives.  This presentation is real-world stuff, there are no gimmicks; I put the Call to Action™ technique to the test right then and there, in front of the class, with the attendees' prospects."

 

Attendees of John Costigan’s classes resoundingly agree; they have been “Costiganized”. 
“It’s unbelievable,” said one recent student.  “I have been selling for 25 years.  I’ve always thought of myself and been told that I was the consummate, consultative sales person, however, John’s techniques have taken me to a whole new level.  I immediately went home and started using the tools and techniques I learned in class.  I am not wasting my time as much, I am more successful.  I’ve taken many sales courses, the BIG sales courses, and this is the FIRST time I’ve gone home and read the book over and over and over.”

 

Registration for Costigan LIVE™ is currently in progress and can be completed online at www.CostiganLIVE.com.  Cost for attending is $399.  Attendees for the event are encouraged to bring the company name, CEO name and phone number of their toughest prospects.
