Testimonials

“We have done 4 follow-ups since the 3 day program which has been beneficial for recapping our learnings and consistent approach to client meetings or farm visits. I'm discovering changes in my sales approach (structure) and time management each month since the course. I have also got back into netball coaching since the course as I discovered this was missing in my work life balance and feel this was a result of setting personal goals which I had not done for a couple of years basically got a bit stagnate in my life. Overall the course gave me a timely refresh to my work & personal goals.”

“This Selling Better Project and sales training is fundamentally changing how we sell for the better. Sue really challenges us and makes us think; she takes us outside our comfort zone, stretches us but it really works. It’s amazing. We are seeing continued increases in sales, huge reduction in discounting, increased confidence in the team and happier customers. This is not just an event for us, we will be continuing our journey with Barrett to keep us sales fit in 2018.”

“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'.”
