28 January 2020 | 17:00 - 31 January 2020 | 17:00

Transforming Markets, Enabling Sales

Many industrial Marketing and Sales Executives in food rely more on their ‘training on the job’ experiences than on their studies. To boost the commercial skills of Marketing and Sales Executives, the B2B food industry often turns to expensive training institutions or develops ‘in house’ training programs.

‘In-industry program’

“An Executive Program on Industrial Marketing & Sales for the food processing industry, coming from 10 years of IFFI masterclasses. Top class!” according to Ruud Peerbooms, chairman IFFI board & VP Food at Corbion.

IFFI has decided to develop this ‘in industry’ executive program together with leading professors, top consultants and industry experts. Marketing and sales executives in the B2B food environment will be equipped with insights and skills to create and capture value to its full potential.

In the module Industrial Sales of the executive program  ‘Transforming Markets, Enabling Sales’ you will learn how to develop smart sales strategies and to apply them within your own business. It is all about delivering results, updating and upgrading your sales plans by training and upgrading your set of skills.

In this 3-days modules you will be introduced to and become familiar with sales leadership and behavior, value selling, strategizing big deals and strategic negotiations.

For a detailed program please download the IFFI Academy brochure Transforming Markets, Enabling Sales’.

The 3-hour sessions are facilitated by carefully selected trainers and consultants who are acknowledged by the industry and experienced in providing industry proven concepts, methods and practices.

In powerful 1-hour sessions industry experts from the food industry share their insights and experiences on adjacent topics and real-time business cases. These ‘industry insiders’ are active in commercial disciplines representing companies further up-and-down the food value chain.
