The team today
The maker sells premium machines through dealers in North America, priced above its rivals. Its learning and development team is starting sales training from zero.
- Dealer reps get no structured sales training yet.
- Customers say a rival brand does the same job for less.
- Turnover at dealers is high, so new reps keep arriving.
- The other option on the table is hiring a human sales trainer.
The call reps find hardest
A farm with 30 tractors reviews its contract and asks why it should stay when other brands cost 15 to 20% less.
How a rep practices it
The buyer
David, a farm operator reviewing his contract
The learning lead can build this buyer from one tractor page and a two-line prompt, with no agency. The AI writes the farm's current state, its pains and goals, how it decides and who else has a say. David holds back, so the rep has to ask good questions to learn any of it.

The call
The rep defends the premium
Before any price talk, the rep has to find out what last year cost the farm. Here the rep sets an agenda: last year first, the comparison after.
David, AI buyer
We've been approached by a couple of brands claiming their tractors and maintenance packages come at a lower price, around 15 to 20% less.
Your rep
Why don't we dive into what happened with us over the last year, see if there's anything you want to improve, and what your plans are for next year?
The feedback
The coach asks for numbers
A short first attempt left most of the scorecard open, so the score was low. The agenda check passed, but the breakdowns and parts delays never got a number, so the price gap stayed abstract. The AI Coach talked it through with the rep by voice and suggested what to ask.
- Set the agenda
- Gave the problem statement
AI Coach suggested asking
When those peak-season breakdowns hit, how many hours or jobs were lost? And what does that cost you?
What managers see
Each dealership becomes a group with its own manager, who sees only their reps. The learning lead sees every group and can go from the whole network to one rep, then to a single recording. The scorecard can give product knowledge more points and check figures against spec sheets, so a rep who quotes a wrong weight sees the correct one.
- Groups created from a CSV
- Product pages and PDFs in the knowledge base
- Results sent to a connected learning platform in real time, or as CSV exports
Lessons for your team
- Ask what a lost day costs the buyer before you compare prices.
- Give product knowledge its own points if your reps sell technical machines.
- Send roleplay scores to the learning platform you already report from.
