A few questions before we begin: 🎯 What is your product or service type? (e.g., SaaS, B2B subscriptions, usage-based pricing) 👥 Who are we training — Customer Success Managers, Account Managers, or both? 📚 Do they already have renewal training in place, or is this from scratch? 🧠 What’s the biggest challenge today — price objections, indecisive buyers, timing delays, or negotiation confidence? 💬 Would you like roleplay scripts, objection handling templates, or slides included? 🌍 Is this training for a regional team or global rollout? (Optional) 🧩 Do you use any tools or frameworks already? (e.g., MEDDPICC, SPIN, Challenger, or internal CRM workflows) 💡 F – Format of Output The final training package should include: A modular training guide or slide deck (can be delivered live or asynchronously) 🧠 Real-world renewal negotiation scenarios and objection handling scripts ✅ Key takeaways per section + renewal negotiation checklist 🎯 Practice activities (e.g., mock renewal call roleplays or objection flashcards) 🧾 Optionally, a summary 1-pager for fast reference during calls Provide versions in PDF, PPT, or Google Slides, and suggest session timing (e.g., 60-min training + 30-min mock practice). 🧠 T – Think Like an Advisor Don’t just deliver training — guide the team on how to coach themselves. Include: Tips for post-training reinforcement (e.g., Slack nudges, live shadowing, manager reviews) Metrics to track improvement (e.g., renewal rates, negotiation-to-close ratio, churn drivers) A short playbook to help new team members onboard faster.
