About the Program

Startups embody the entrepreneurial spirit, brimming with ideas and energy, yet often face the challenge of lacking precise direction and a roadmap for their journey. The Sales Excellence workshop offers a distinctive blend of easily graspable and experiential learning, meticulously crafted for businesses in their initial three years of operation.

The Sales Excellence SME Program caters to startups and solopreneurs, presenting a comprehensive 12-month initiative that combines consulting and coaching. This program focuses on goal setting and creating a lasting legacy for business owners. Covering 12 intensive topics, it provides weekly follow-ups to ensure the implementation of the program. The ultimate objective of the program is to transform the dynamic from actively selling to the customer to having the customer willingly come and make purchases from your business.

Hi Mentors Manisha & Salil The concept of knowing the kind of buyer I am dealing with is amazing as it's helping me to recognise their priorities which in turn helps me for better conversions. Especially the task of making the list of best clients is helping me to analyse my data in a very different & progressive way. Thank you so much for explaining it so deeply with so simple examples. I always look forward to your mentorship 🥳

Kanika Sachdev Understanding your customer throught PAC - Sales Excellence

It’s the completion of our study and it was a wonderful one! When I look at the growth everyone has had, it’s visual .. it’s right there in the numbers and I have never shared my growth through the numbers Because maybe it wasn’t in there that way needed but there been so so much background growth and that wouldn’t have been possible without the study and discussions. I am taking my first visible step today with an Instagram live and @⁨Salil Arekar⁩, thank you so much for the conversation the other day of Just Jump Into It! @⁨Manisha Rastogi⁩, thank you for being patient with me and understanding where I was coming from which was mostly I don’t feel it, but now I do and I see the Goal, though not in numbers yet but in creation. And each one of you, I truly mean this.. I have got so much, simply through presence and observation, each one of you have so much to give and share. Have loved the spirit of the group. So, thank you so much! Do join the live if you’ll can, it’s called Divine Insight.

I have been hearing a lot about using the education imparted during leadership trainings to our respective business, BUT somehow never came around to it. Until Today. The session on *Excel & Analysis* taught me to corelate my data against my numbers to tell me where I need to invest my time and where I need to invest my resources. We keep telling stories to ourselves but when the numbers are aligned , they tell the reality. Thankyou for teaching us to look at ourselves in the mirror today @⁨Salil Arekar⁩ and @⁨Manisha Rastogi⁩ 🙏🏽❤️

Roma Bakhru Excel & Analysis

Thank you Salil for the Brilliant Session on how to use Pivot Tables and Vlookup functions in Excel.. Its really gonna help me in my operations.. In fact it took me 3 days to generate a qty summary of various repetitive items for an order with possibility of human errors. I could have done it in a matter of minutes with the above two functions.. Amazing.. Thank you once again.. 😀👍

@⁨Manisha Rastogi⁩ @⁨Salil Arekar⁩ 2.0 will always hold a special place in my heart. It's the questions you threwb across us during the course that made me really work on where I want to go, come out of my 'lost phase' and finally find my footing in a helping profession. Sales Excellence 2.0 really made way for Vinisha 2.0 and this year is going to be all showing that face to the world. 😎
