With video content from a wide range of professionals in their fields, the 3-tiered course starts with the fundamentals of upselling and moves into topics like customer journey and behavioural psychology. We worked hard to make it a fun and efficient learning experience that is easy-to-use, with video tutorials and downloadable resources in every lesson.
