## [Top Tips on Sales Training, From Stevie® Awards Winner, MarketBridge](https://blog.stevieawards.com/sales-awards/bid/79201/Top-Tips-on-Sales-Training-From-Stevie-Awards-Winner-MarketBridge)

*[MarketBridge](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/awards/426_2655_21668.cfm) of Bethesda, Maryland, USA, received the Gold Stevie® Award for Best Sales Training or Coaching Program of the Year in the [Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service](http://www.stevieawards.com/sales), the world's top [business awards](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm) for contact center, customer service, business development, and sales professionals. (The early-bird deadline for the 2013 Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service is October 10. If you haven't already done so, you can [request your entry kit here](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/mailinglist/402_2060_13407.cfm).) Here we look at what made their training program outstanding.*![MarketBridge Award-Winning Team](https://blog.stevieawards.com/hs-fs/file-13812414-jpg/images/0912marketbridgeteam_175_we.jpg)

MarketBridge, in partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue and MasterCard Worldwide, won a Gold Stevie Award for its multifaceted and interactive training program for Saks Fifth Avenue Stores. This training focused on [SAKSFIRST](http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/SaksFirst), Saks Fifth Avenue's exclusive loyalty program, and the Saks Fifth Avenue World Elite MasterCard® card, a premier co-branded credit card offering tied in with Saks Fifth Avenue's loyalty program.

"We are honored to receive this award and celebrate our success with Saks Fifth Avenue and MasterCard, two preeminent brands in their industries and valued partners," stated Rebecca Johns, Vice President at MarketBridge when she and the team were in Las Vegas in February 2012 to collect the trophy.

**Background Story**  
In 2006, MasterCard partnered with Saks Fifth Avenue to launch the Saks Fifth Avenue World Elite MasterCard, with features and benefits designed for the more affluent consumer, in all Saks Fifth Avenue Stores nationwide.

 MarketBridge was engaged to build a sales training and coaching program for this co-brand card which would primarily help drive new cardmember acquisitions, but also solve key issues that arose during initial product roll-  
 out.

**Flexible Approach**  
This training program was delivered to all Saks Fifth Avenue stores through a variety of coverage approaches, including in-store classroom trainings, on-the-job simulations, and long distance support. This flexible training and coaching model allowed for modified versions of the program to fit the unique needs of individual stores, departments, and store associates. 

**1. Territory Support:**  
The first coverage model type, “Territory Support,” included regularly scheduled visits from an Account Executive to train, coach, and incent the store management and employees.

**2. Accelerator Support:**  
Next, “Accelerator Support” involved a 1-2 day credit event that included training, strategic credit planning, one-on-one sales coaching, and incentives  
 for top performers.

**3. Air Cover Support:**  
Finally, the third coverage model was “Air Cover Support”, which did not feature any regular Account Executive visits, but rather on-going support through distance learning, mailed materials, and interactive online tools.

**Making Training Fun**  
Through its in-store visits, MarketBridge conducted fun and interactive training classes, during which the store associates were taught about credit, helped to achieve objectives, and encouraged to promote the co-brand to their customers.**   
**

**Changing Behavior**  
Post-training—regardless of module used, additional training tools and reinforcement materials such as takeaways, quick tips, fun facts, and games— helped to ensure that the learning process was effective, that the information was retained, and, above all, that behavior changed.

**Positive Results**  
In the first three fiscal months of 2011 MarketBridge was able to improve credit performance year-over-year, while reenergizing Associates and increasing program participation.

In an industry clouded by the current economic downturn, these results were substantial. Furthermore, from a qualitative perspective, overall program feedback from store associates and management alike was highly positive.

*MarketBridge* *won the Gold Stevie® Award for* *[Sales Training or Coaching Program of the Year](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm) in the 2012 **[Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service](http://www.stevieawards.com/sales),** the world's top honors for sales, call center, and customer service professionals. Here we look at how the [sales awards](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm) winner's training efforts directly led to higher employee performance. *

![MarketBridge](https://blog.stevieawards.com/hs-fs/file-13813259-jpg/images/mblogo_150-resized-600.jpg)In 2010, [sales award](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm) winner, MarketBridge, was tasked with building a sales training and coaching program by MasterCard and Saks Fifth Avenue to help promote their joint card, the Saks Fifth  Avenue World Elite MasterCard. Offered in all Saks Fifth Avenue stores nationwide, the card is complete with features and benefits designed for the upper-affluent consumer market segment.

 MarketBridge was primarily charged with helping to drive new card member acquisitions, but also to solve key issues that arose during initial product roll-out including: an unbalanced and incomplete card launch, knowledge gaps among store associates as well as limited, complicated, and non-actionable training materials.

 Using [best sales practices](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm), MarketBridge developed a flexible training and coaching model that allowed for modified versions of their program to fit the unique needs of regions, individual stores, departments, and store associates. MarketBridge had three training modules:

1. **Territory Support**, which included regularly scheduled visits from an Account Executive to train, coach and, incent the store management and employees. 
2. **Accelerator Support**, which involved a 1-2 day credit event that included training, strategic credit planning, one-on-one sales coaching and, incentives, like vacations for top performers.
3. **Air Cover Support**, which did not feature any regular Account Executive visits, but rather on-going support through distance learning and mailed materials.

Through in-store visits, MarketBridge conducted fun and interactive training classes, during which associates:

- Were taught about credit,
- Helped to overcome objectives, and
- Learned about ways to promote the co-brand to their customers. 

Post-training, regardless of module, incorporated additional training tools and reinforcement materials such as takeaways, quick tips, fun facts, and games, to help ensure that learning was affective and information was retained.

 In the first 3 fiscal months of 2011, the [sales excellence](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm) focused module led to improved credit performance year-over-year, while reenergizing associates and increasing program participation. Three major achievements include:

1. In terms of total card applications, the stores in the regions being supported by the MarketBridge program consistently outperformed the total company performance, with up to a 62 percentage point increased improvement year over year. 
2. A 65% training penetration in stores for 2011 contributed to higher performance and associate participation in credit.
3. MarketBridge incentive initiatives alone increased private label card performance by 24%, and co-brand performance by 62%, when compared to pre-program performance.

*[![Bill Binch](https://blog.stevieawards.com/hs-fs/file-13812741-jpg/images/1211qabinch.jpg?width=172&height=258&name=1211qabinch.jpg)Bill Binch](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/awards/426_2645_20974.cfm) won the Stevie**®** Award for Worldwide VP of Sales of the Year in the 2011 [Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service](http://www.stevieawards.com/sales), the world's top honors for sales, call center, and customer service professionals.  Bill will chair the committee for final judging of the [Sales Individual](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13423.cfm#SalesIndividual) categories in the 2012 edition of the awards.  **Entries for the 2012 awards are open through January 18 - [submit yours now](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/sales/general/399_2065_13404.cfm).***

***What are your top 3 tips on how to make your mark in sales?   
***

**1)    ****Prioritize your day or someone else will**

I was taught early in my sales career to make a list before leaving work of the first 5 things I’m going to do the next day. I still do it. If you don’t set your priorities, a customer, a partner, or a colleague will do it for you.  This means you set the agenda for what it will take to be successful.

**2)    ****There are no traffic jams in the extra mile**

This is a fancy way of saying: Differentiate yourself.  For example, think about an interview for a sales job. Most of the candidates are going to tell a similar story to you, meaning you’re all talking about the same stuff.  So tell the story of why you’re unique and find the reason you’re compellingly different.  This applies in sales as well: Many of the products that you’ll sell in a career are similar to another product, so you need to find the edge on why your offering is different.

3) **Establish a point of view**

People who make a mark have an opinion, so have a point of view.  I respect individuals who can craft a compelling and passionate argument.  Even if I disagree with their opinion, I respect those who show up with their own thoughts.  That means they will likely be creative and not get boxed in.*   
*

***What item of news recently caught your eye and why?***

SAP’s purchase of SuccessFactors.  It is their first true entry into Cloud computing and sends a pretty big signal that I think companies like Salesforce and Oracle will need to respond to.  Also, the price they paid was incredible and creates a new standard for how Cloud-based companies are valued.

***What is your favorite sport or hobby? ***

I enjoy golf, wine tasting, and spending time with my family and friends.

***If you could choose another profession, what would it be? ***

I’d be in the music business.  Music and technology are colliding right now with digital rights, new distribution methods, etc.  I have the technology experience combined with a love of music, so think it would be exciting to be at the forefront of figuring out how people will get and pay for their music going forward.*   
*

***What quality or qualities do you most value in your business associates? ***

Self-awareness is a top trait that I admire—people who are confident enough in their skills to know what they’re NOT good at. 

***As someone at the top of your profession, what keeps you inspired or makes you hit the ground running in the morning?***

I’ve worked for 18 years dreaming of being in a position like the one I’m in right now.  As a young sales professional, I visualized being the head of sales for a hot, fast-growing company.  Now that I’m part of one, it inspires me to develop the next set of future leaders.  Watching them grow, gain their voice, and make money are the best compliments I can get.  Knowing that you are helping people mature their business skills is tremendously rewarding.

2. **Free publicity.** Stevie Awards winners are not only recognized in an awards ceremony but receive acknowledgment globally via press coverage and our radio cast and Internet streaming. 

3. **Company size equality. **You don't have to be a big company to win a Stevie. Small organizations have just as much chance to win sales awards and customer service awards as big companies do. 

4. **Flexible ****categories**.
