World’s Largest Health and Beauty Online Retailer Taps AllenComm to Help Improve Sales and Retention.

SALT LAKE CITY (November 13, 2008) — Growing exponentially since 1999, a premier direct sales company recognized their continued growth would rely on each of their representative’s ability to quickly gain solid understanding of good sales practices and customer service. As a result, the retailer has teamed with Allen Communication Learning Services to create high-level training focused on growing sales knowledge.

Once the company made a strategic decision to improve sales by focusing on individual training, they realized they wanted to blend technology with a personal approach and turned to AllenComm for ideas on developing successful programs for adult learners.

As they had a tight timeline, the company challenged AllenComm to quickly ramp up on their values and integrate those values into specific content. Additionally, AllenComm was charged with building the courseware entirely in Lectora. Consequently, AllenConn designed a blended approach using web-based training authored in Lectora and ILT courses where learners could practice the lessons learned during the online sessions. The strategy helped representatives to clearly align the client’s principles and goals while increasing retention and sales savvy.

“Helping clients achieve their goals while working within their parameters, whether that means developing in their framework with a specific tool, or partnering with them on a level where their pain points become our pain points, is really where we’re finding success,” states Ron Zamir, CEO of Allen Communication Learning Services. “We see this as one of our greatest values for our clients. Good attention to instructional design can drive successful initiatives no matter the platform or budget.

The current project is just one of over a dozen global initiatives Allen has supported for its clients recently. With its integrated design, development and localization services, Allen continues to define a superior customer experience in the training market.
