Selling Skills Assessment Tool™ (SSAT)
The Predictive Index’s SSAT is an easy-to administer online survey which examines 25 key aspects of selling skills clustered into five areas. The SSAT gives participants insight into their sales strengths and areas of growth to increase their overall effectiveness. The SSAT reports give sales managers important metrics at three levels:
individual contributor, sales team and sales organization.
Data
Selling Skills Assessment Tool provides the specific data you need to increase the sales production and customer interaction skills of your whole team by giving you an objective look at people’s strengths, skills, and areas for improvement. It provides a detailed, accurate quantification of the sales and judgment skills of individuals, teams and the company as a whole, and is designed for multiple sales positions and industries to mirror your specific situation. The easy-to-administer online survey assesses the five critical skills essential for a customer-focused and consultative approach to selling:
- Building trust and credibility
- Identifying client needs
- Presenting products/services and articulating their value
- Handling objections and gaining agreement for the sale
- Creating customers for life with effective positioning
