Selling through Excellence in Optics : Sold Out! Reserve Your Space For 2009!

ABO Accredited for 15 hours of CE

Whether your optician is very experienced or new to the job, Selling through Excellence in Optics will teach everything they need to know to create technically advanced eyewear that will greatly exceed your patients’ expectations. This program offers the most current information about lens materials, design and treatments, along with the skills to explain them effectively to the patient. In this two-day immersion retreat, the optician will learn the technical aspects of lens products, as well as acquire unique selling tools.

Who Should Attend:
All opticians, including optical managers.

What you'll learn :

  • How to clearly explain a wide variety of materials, designs and treatments
  • How to express these as benefits to the patient
  • How to position products and talk about them effectively
  • The secret to meeting and then exceeding patient expectations
  • With Phernell's guidance, your optician will excel by understanding the eyewear they create.
  • The “vibe” in your eyewear boutique will change from selling to sharing of knowledge, and patients will be more likely to select premium lenses and add-ons.
  • You will see how the “light goes on” when your optician understands why things go right – and knows how to recreate those successes again and again.
