Testimonials

“The change has been outstanding. Two years ago (Nov 2017) I couldn't have imagined that Sales would be in such great shape already. I thought it would've take years but here we are now with a fantastic sales team, sales infrastructure and processes, strategy and culture that is growing and making a huge difference to our business and our clients. As an accountant, I knew very little about sales but Barrett's Sales Strategy & Operations Framework and the Barrett team have steered us in the right direction.”

“After our very successful two day 'Sales Strategy & Operations' workshop last week, I wanted to write to you and let you know how professional, outcome driven and valuable the experience was for our executive leadership team. With excellent pre-workshop preparation and guidance from the Barrett team, including an insightful on-line survey of probing and exploratory questions, which provided the base data for a productive and challenging workshop, we were off and running and the usual slow start to a facilitated workshop like this was non-existent.
From the moment we kicked in to the agenda, the Diadem team was engaged and motivated to actively participate and seek clarity and direction in our pursuit of a robust review of our sales processes and how we could maximise our efforts moving forward. With yourself as a master facilitator and teacher, able aided by Rebecca at your side, you intuitively guided the Diadem team through a excellently crafted and impactful programme that opened up opportunities, challenged convention and sought to explore a path forward that contained clarity, purpose and a strength of resolve to achieve business defining differentiation in our chosen marketplaces. We now have the understanding, tools, intelligence and platform to launch Diadem forward and with yourself and the Barrett team by our side, we are in 'safe hands'.”

“It is absolutely satisfying to have coached and lead a team through a Development Program, and 6 months after the last module was completed a staff member explains to your team how they have just won a significant new customer 'because of the learnings' from the Sales Essentials program. And better still when that Sales person describes precisely which elements of the Sales Essentials Program he used, and how it impacted the prospect and the eventual outcome. Thanks Jens for your effort and support in leading me and my team through Sales Essentials, it's certainly added value to our business. ”
