What is the best practice for training on product knowledge?

• A. One-time orientation with no updates.
• B. Regular refreshers on pests, treatments, safety data sheets, new products, and role-playing objections.
• C. Only pricing and promotions training.
• D. Self-guided reading without trainer feedback.

Answer: (B)

Ongoing, structured product knowledge training is essential because product details, safety information, and offerings change over time. The best practice combines regular refreshers on pests, treatments, safety data sheets, and new products with practice in real-world conversations through role-playing objections. This approach keeps the team up to date, reinforces accurate information, and builds confidence to respond to customers smoothly. One-time orientation cannot keep up with updates and safety changes. Focusing only on pricing and promotions ignores the actual product details customers need. Self-guided reading without trainer feedback misses opportunities to reinforce understanding and practice handling objections.
