About CPD Accreditation

 

The Alba Business & Sales Academy with Anna Payne is accredited by the CPD Certification Services. And as such, each certified training is globally, professionally recognised. 

Here’s what CPD says about accreditation: 

“Accredited CPD training means the learning activity has reached the required Continuing Professional Development standards and benchmarks. The learning value has been scrutinised to ensure integrity and quality”

 

Why is it so beneficial to gain a certified accreditation in Sales Strategy?

 

The Sales Certification will mean that you will not only learn how to create your own sales strategy, but you will also have the process and depth of knowledge to turn this knowledge into a lucrative revenue stream by offering your expertise to clients.

 

The benefits are twofold;

 

Firstly you know that the certification is going to qualify you to expert level. Meaning that when you become a Certified Sales Strategist, not only do you have that accreditation against your name, and the skills to create success in your own business, you have the depth of skills needed to teach what you have learnt to your clients.

 

But it’s also about your value in the market and the way clients perceive you when you are certified. Especially when it is from a trusted, recognised and respected body like the CPD Certification Service. That makes people see you as an authority, and an expert, right? And that builds trust, and increases your perceived value. Which makes it a lot more likely that they will invest in your services and you will be well paid for the work you do.

 

You will be certified in Sales Strategy to demonstrate your expertise.

  • You will have the knowledge and tools to operate as a Sales Strategist.
  • You will be able to increase your own sales 
  • You will also be able to create a new or enhanced revenue stream offering sales training, consultancy, strategy and coaching 
  • You will be in a position to help your clients create and build their own effective and comprehensive strategies.
  • Sales experts are much sought after 

 

When you become a Certified Sales Strategist, not only do you have that accreditation as a mark of quality, trust and expertise against your name, you will also have the skills to teach what you have learnt to your clients.

Testimonials

‘From the moment I first heard Anna speak about sales I knew I wanted to work with her. I first joined her membership and then Momentum and am now  in her Rise Up Mastermind. At each support level I have made my investment back in less than 2 months. Since joining the mastermind my turnover each month has got bigger and better - Feb 4k, March 8k and April 15k. Anna's support, wisdom and generosity are second to non. Knowing I have her in my corner when it comes to my sales strategy gives me the confidence to put myself out there and make my business a success.’

Emma Rowland

'Anna has opened my eyes to the inside track on sales!  I wasn’t afraid of selling, but I didn’t quite know how to do it, when, how often, or how to actually structure or schedule it.  I now know exactly what to do, when, and how to do it, and it’s really very easy.  The best thing is, when I first followed her step by step instructions, I made ten (ten!) sales in one week, and now, despite all the other enticing offers out there to learn about sales, I’ve stuck with her method, as it makes sense, and it works.'
