Sales for those who hate the idea of selling

Become a trusted adviser to your clients, selling more effectively and closing more deals.

What makes a great agency sales-person? Certainly it’s not about hard pushy sales – it’s not about learning the trade of the double-glazing salesman. This is about becoming a trusted adviser. Collaborating and consulting effectively with your client. And by doing so, ultimately closing more deals and winning more business.

Discover how to become hard to replace increasing client retention levels and see how to move your client relationships from ‘buyer-supplier’ to ‘peer to peer’ based on your expertise and value not just your price.

What others are saying

Chris is the perfect 'latent potential unlocker'. He's perfected the art of teaching all levels to understand, have confidence in and use, fast working, value driving commercial strategies... my team have increased in confidence, are having ballsy conversations with marketing clients and procurement alike....mutual trust grows...

Each course we run with Chris pays back within a month. The payback tends to be a mixture of better briefing from clients to get better results, reduced over-servicing and/or doors opening to other parts of the client's business as they value the impact and confidence we build in them. I couldn't recommend Chris highly enough

Managing Director, Propellernet
Chris's negotiation course forms a key part of our training plans for people above Associate Director level. It's a very impactful day. The mix of theory, examples and practice hits the spot and the result is that people feel confident to use techniques immediately. We have recorded many instances of people pushing back with clients and negotiating successfully on time and cost. Early success inspires greater confidence and the practice establishes itself quickly and thoroughly through the business. Director, MMR Research
