Sales Teams are Closing the Performance Gap with On-Demand Learning Platform – Practis

At Practis, they’ve developed a next-generation learning platform that has proven to close the performance gap across sales teams by extending training into the field.

Co-Founder & CEO Edward Kerr explains, “Most training programs are incomplete. Not because they’re poorly executed but simply because they lack a practice component. Learners tend to get a lot of information at once and are thrust into conversational exchanges with customers before they’re ready to articulate what they’ve been taught. At Practis, we saw an opportunity to reinforce best practices by doing something obvious yet extremely impactful… capture the most successful conversations and share those communication methods with the rest of the team within a conversation simulator. It’s active learning— the practice of putting thoughts and theory into words.”

By now, almost all would have probably run into a product that contains CBD or cannabidiol, an assumption that rests on the exponential rise of the hemp and CBD industries and the increase in demand for CBD-based supplements, oils, gummies, and drinks. Given the influx of ventures that have made it their mission to satisfy a consumer base in need of products that can help in their bid for improved health, the question now has less to do with supply and more to do with which companies can be trusted to provide the best. Empire Hemp Co., a wellness brand established by Chris VanDusen and Shelly Wolanske, have built a solid reputation over the years, emerging as a go-to source of CBD products that can aid in one’s health journey.
