Emerging Professionals Council: October Meeting
Think you know how to sell? Join Paul Larosa, a local business consultant with 8 Furlong Consulting for an engaging, practical session that takes participants through the entire sales process—from finding the right prospects to closing the deal and building long-term client relationships.
Attendees will explore the characteristics of successful salespeople and learn how to prospect effectively, qualify potential clients, uncover their real needs, and tailor a presentation that speaks directly to those needs. The program emphasizes active listening, relationship building, asking the right questions, and creating solutions rather than simply selling a product or service. This session is perfect for business owners, entrepreneurs, sales professionals, and anyone responsible for bringing in new business,
The Emerging Professionals Council of the Irmo Chamber is open to all and programming is targeted for professionals who are early in their career journey or embarking on entrepreneurship. The mission of the EPC is to engage and develop emerging professionals by providing access to leadership opportunities, networking, and resources that strengthen our local business community.Coffee and doughnuts will be available. Join our GroupMe to stay informed.
