PurpleTrain.com launches Virtual Sales Training for Consultants
As part of our continual efforts to improve the sales and marketing training to
all of you at the Authorised Service Centres, we will be introducing a virtual
sales training starting from today.
Besides knowing all about the numerous benefits of e-learning, like anytime,
anywhere access and learning, own pace and time, no attendance of classes, it is
also vital that you are familiar with the navigation and functions within the
students' interface.
This virtual sales training is designed to provide you with hands-on experience
on all the Internet facilities that the students will be using online at
PurpleTrain.com. This will assist greatly in helping you answer any queries that
students may encounter online, particularly those students who are not Net-savvy
enough.
For a "live" experience, simply go to www.purpletrain.com/onlinechat. Then
click on the "Sales and Marketing Centre" icon. Enter your individual ID &
Password and?.. Viola! You're on! (Anyone who does not have the ID, please
email Wan Ling, our Sales Manager at wlee@purpletrain.com)
Welcome to the Virtual Sales Training!
There are 7 tools that are available in this virtual sales training:
ONLINE CHAT
Commonly known as a chat room, this unique facility gives students the
opportunity to speak and interact with the lecturer "live" in a synchronous mode
discussion, similar to the IRC and ICQ chats available on the web. Students can
log in and post their questions and get an immediate response from the
facilitators. However although this is an excellent communication medium it
still requires our valuable students to log in at a fixed time to speak to the
facilitators. However, this may be disruptive to some students' working
schedule, therefore we strongly advise that students fully utilize the
discussion room to ask whatever academic questions they may have. This would
also give the facilitator more time to ponder over your questions and give a
more comprehensive answer to the questions asked.
VIEW CHAT LOGS
All chat logs are recorded and saved in this facility, so you can refer to old
records of previous chats.
DISCUSSION ROOM
Here students are given the ability to post questions to the facilitators on any
academic area in the modules. You can post the question 24 hours a day, at
anytime from anywhere and you will receive a respond from your facilitator
within 24 hours, irrespective or your physical location. In order words, you can
be on vacation in America and wish to post a question and all you need to do is
to log in the next day and your answer is right in front of you.
Therefore, you no longer need to wait for the next physical contact with your
facilitator, or to wait for the chat timings, so all you need to do is to post
it in the discussion room. Explaining via the discussion room allows students
to receive clearer definitions as well as examples to their questions and this
will benefit all students when it come to understand different concepts and
methodologies. Furthermore this facility gives the students total control of
their time and are not restricted by the chat timings. Without the face-to-face
contact, students are also less shy and less apprehensive about asking
questions.
PRIVATE MAIL
This works like a normal email facility and it allows mails to be sent among the
students, the facilitators and the consultants. Especially useful for more
personal matters and it can be posted from anywhere at anytime.
CONTENTS
Within this, you will find a range of highly useful and informative articles
that will greatly benefit your understanding of e-learning and the latest news
on PurpleTrain.com. This will definitely equip you with added knowledge to
handle the students.
On the other hand, the students will have a different set of contents. In here,
the students gain access to the study guides online.
COMPILE
This facility allows students to print out selected topics within the study
guide in Contents.
RESUME SESSION
Through this, students can bookmark their readings and progress within the
Contents facility.
You must check this out and experience it yourself! Happy exploring!
