Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be role play?
No. And that’s deliberate.
This masterclass is built around practical learning, discussion and real-world application – not putting people on the spot or asking them to perform something they’ve only just been shown.
My team don’t see themselves as salespeople. Is this still relevant?
Yes. In fact, that’s exactly who this masterclass was built for.
Most delegates are specialists first and salespeople second – experts in what they do, who need a more practical and commercially mature way to create opportunities, handle conversations and move business forward.
Why is the workshop two days?
Because business development is bigger than one skill.
This gives delegates time to think properly, challenge habits and build something practical they can use immediately. Creating opportunities, asking better questions, handling objections and gaining commitment all feed into each other.
Two days gives you the time to work on the whole process properly – not just isolated parts of it.
Can we pay by invoice?
Yes. Many businesses prefer to pay by invoice for finance or purchasing reasons. Just email info@lucrumhouse.com and an invoice can be arranged.
Can this be delivered in-house for my team?
Yes. The same masterclass can be delivered in-house and adapted to your team, your customers and the commercial challenges specific to your business.
That gives us the flexibility to make the training far more specific to your world than we can in an open workshop.
