WHAT'S THE TRAINING ABOUT?

It was awesome! I've been working in advertising and communications for quite a long time, but I would like to say thank you to Leonid Bugaev for the course "C-Level Sales and Networking".

Curious to learn new things for myself. There is a lot written about reaching out to decision makers, but Leonid managed to structure the solution into concrete steps with examples and cases.

The course involves both practical assignments and working on yourself in terms of perceiving the approach.
It is not about hardened "sales scripts", but about the approach to communication and building long-term relationships with top executives from real companies. The result of the course for me was the realization that I really do everything as it should be done!
For newbies and newbies, this is a solid ground for transitioning into relationships with complex clients. The key is to learn how to use it competently.
