Kansas City, MO, Oct. 6, 2014 — The Business Technology Association (BTA; www.bta.org) has announced the start date for the next BTA MPS Client Engagement Training Series. The online course, led by Mike Lecak of Collaborative Consultant Group, will begin Nov. 5. The course consists of six one-hour, Web-based sessions designed to assist participants with: getting the appointment; managed print services (MPS) value propositions; conducting the appointment; the assessment; the proposal; deal implementation; and client management.

He will help take these opportunities through the sales process, from appointment to the assessment to the proposal and contract.
