Quote
\"It helped to nearly double our turnover\"
\"After attending one of Mark’s seminars recently we immediately implemented the lead tracking mechanism into our business. Prior to doing this we had absolutely no idea how effective our advertising and marketing was. The result is that we have since learned how to measure and analyse the results generated from our campaigns and make the necessary adjustments as required. We firmly believe that this is a significant factor in our success since.\" - Andy Shuter, MD, Frontline-Solutions Ltd
Core Competencies
Communication
I have worked in the field of Influential Communication for over 20 years. Influential Communication is an umbrella term for the skills and techniques used to get other people to change their behavior. As such, it has applications in Leadership, Management, Sales, Marketing, Coaching and Customer Service
Sales - Specialised
Although I am able to cover all aspects of selling, from a strategic to an individual level, it is my incorporation of the latest theories (e.g NLP, Social Styles) that allows me to tailor an offering to any business sector or customer. I worked in Sales and Marketing within Pharmaceuticals for nearly 20 years. I am able to cover telesales as well as face-to-face.
Leadership
I use John Adair's \"Action Centred Leadership\" model, which was developed my modelling great leaders in industry and the military. I use this model as the basis of all of the Leadership training and coaching that I run.
