What you get

Technique beats talent

Talent gets you in the room. Technique gets you the deal. These are the three things that change when salespeople stop improvising and start working with a system.

01

Driving decisions when it counts

Objections, resistance, and uncertainty are handled with clarity and control. Instead of reacting, you respond with confidence and guide the conversation toward a decision.

02

From talent to system

Successful selling becomes a repeatable approach rather than a personal strength. Techniques can be applied consistently — making performance more scalable and less luck-dependent.

03

Higher conversion & better results

Sales conversations become structured, relevant, and guided toward clear decisions — not open-ended discussions. More consistent outcomes, better use of every opportunity.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is the Selling Techniques Masterclass? +

The Selling Techniques Masterclass is an intensive 1.5-day live training for sales professionals and top talents. It covers the full arc of a sales conversation — from questioning techniques and active listening to objection handling, reading buying signals, and influencing customer perception. The program is delivered in small groups of up to 15 participants to ensure depth and practice time.

Who is this program designed for? +

The masterclass is designed for sales professionals looking to sharpen their skills, and for high-potential employees being developed into commercial roles. It suits both experienced salespeople who want to refine their approach and people newer to sales who need a solid, structured foundation they can apply immediately.

Where does the masterclass take place? +

The masterclass is held at the Vienna Institute for Leadership and Sales, a dedicated training facility in Vienna. The venue is purpose-built for focused learning — with professional seminar rooms, a quiet atmosphere, and everything participants need for an intensive day of practice.

What is the price, and what does it include? +

Participation costs €850 per person, excluding VAT. This covers the full 1.5-day program, all training materials, and access to the curriculum. Invoicing is available. For groups or custom in-house formats, please get in touch directly to discuss pricing.

In which language is the masterclass delivered? +

The masterclass is available in both English and German. When registering, please indicate your preferred session language so we can place you in the right group. Mixed-language sessions are not offered — each session runs fully in one language to keep the learning environment consistent.

How many participants are in each group? +

Groups are capped at 15 participants. This is deliberate: small groups allow for real practice, personalised feedback from the trainer, and conversations that go beyond theory. If you are booking for a larger team, an in-house format with a dedicated cohort can be arranged.

How do I register or get more information? +

You can register your interest directly via the contact form on this page or by reaching out to Nina Küffel at info@vils-vienna.com. Nina will send you available dates, answer any questions about the program, and handle the booking from there.
