It can help businesses understand their market\, review competitors\, identify suitable prospects\, prepare for meetings\, analyse sales notes and develop clearer proposals and follow-up communications. \nDuring this workshop\, participants will use a structured prompting framework to produce clearer and more useful AI outputs. The focus will be on practical application\, helping attendees use AI to support stronger sales thinking and everyday business development activity. \nThe course will also cover the responsible use of AI in a sales and customer context\, including data protection\, anonymising customer information\, checking AI-generated claims and ensuring that AI supports rather than replaces human judgement. \nParticipants will leave with practical prompts\, a simple sales-tracking process and a 30-day action plan they can apply immediately within their business. \n  \nWho Should Attend?\nSME owner-managers who want practical ways to use AI to support sales and business growth. \nBusiness development and sales professionals responsible for prospecting\, meetings\, proposals and customer follow-up. \nMarketing professionals involved in lead generation\, market research or customer communications. \nSole traders and micro-business owners who manage their own sales and business development activity. \nService-based businesses that regularly prepare proposals\, respond to enquiries or manage potential client opportunities. \nBusiness owners and employees who want to use AI more effectively and responsibly throughout the sales process. \n  \nLearning Outcomes\nThis practical course will help learners understand how AI can support the complete sales and business development process\, from initial market research and prospect identification through to proposals\, follow-up and opportunity tracking. \nParticipants will learn how to apply a structured prompting framework to create clearer\, more relevant and more useful sales-related AI outputs. They will explore how AI can assist with competitor analysis\, identifying potential market gaps and strengthening how their business is positioned. \nLearners will consider how prospective customers may view their organisation’s online profiles and wider digital presence.
