Testimonials

“Sue is simply the best writer on sales issues that I've ever come across. That reflects her highly organised thinking about sales issues and her drive towards solving real-world problems. She's also a delight to work with: constantly engaged and curious, highly commercial, always looking for the next solution. I've found her particularly insightful on sales within professional services. If I was looking for someone to build the skills of a sales team or an executive group, she would be my first call.”

“Lotus Filters has experienced solid recent growth, however we wanted to see if we could grow faster! After reading an article published by Sue, undertaking some research and meeting up, we decided to engage the team at Barrett to “help us sell better”. The brief has covered a number of key things including refining our sales messaging to the online Sales Essentials development program for our sales and key operational people. Along this journey Sue has facilitated workshops where her depth of knowledge and engaging delivery style has led to positive change in the business. Benefits derived include a very clear value proposition and a number of tools and techniques to help us all sell better – and the results are showing. We have no hesitation in recommending Sue to any business looking to enhance the way they sell.”

Graeme WilliamsonManaging Director, Lotus Filters

“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. ”
