Reasons to believe in Category Management Training

We believe that people have the right to be the best version of themselves.

For our Category Management Course we use the MBM 73% Category Management Funnel because we know that only 27% of recommendations land in store.

Our training will help you to identify more, sell more and land more opportunities, so you can significantly increase your landing rate by upwards of 15% points.

What Learners Say About Category Management Training UK

“MBM really helped us to pinpoint the areas of Category understanding that offered us the greatest opportunities, and then transformed how we talk about Category across our UK business. They are challenging and will ask difficult questions, to get the best out of your team and the knowledge within”.
