Selling Gaskets in the 21st Century

Twice a year, Thermoseal Inc. invites our distributors and their sales force to our facility in Sidney, Ohio for an intensive 2-1/2 day training school designed to help our distributors sell our products in today’s competitive, price-driven marketplace.

Our goal for this in-depth gasket training school is to increase your knowledge of Thermoseal’s products. Attendees will leave with a complete comprehension of the flanged joint process and be able to approach engineers and decision makers in plants confidently. They will become a reliable information source that will help you move more products.

Some of the course program includes:

  • An examination of all gasket manufacturing processes.

  • In-depth discussion on gasket terminology.

  • Referral to sales techniques employed by competitive manufacturers and how to sell against it.

  • In-depth examination and actual participation in gasket testing procedures, their advantages and disadvantages in predicting performance, how to employ them as sales tools, and how the competition employs them.

  • Selling KLINGER®top-chem-2000 against other PTFE products –“Everybody’s only interested in price, how can I sell it if it’s not cheaper?”

  • How to upgrade your customer to KLINGERSIL® C-4433 and C-4439.

  • Discussions of principles of selling, their effectiveness and how they apply in today’s industrial market.

Because this training is intensive, attendees are required to at least a 3-year background in the fluid sealing business.
