What People Are Saying

Suzanne Smith, Regional Manager dh Recruitment & Driver Hire, Fife – December 2023
I had 3 of my staff on your webinar this morning πŸ™‚. I was listening in and I have to say this has been one of the best training sessions I have ever heard.
Once they got in their heads to use what you were saying in our business lots of things clicked.
And a lot of what you said they were all saying 'that's what you say to us' so thank you for concreting that I give them good advise and training.
Jim, Northwood Central – November 2023
This is the first Business Gateway seminar that I have attended and it will certainly not be the last. I missed the start so unfortunately I didn't pick up the presenter's name. He has a relaxed, easy style of presenting that I found to be very comfortable. He covered a lot of ground but made it easy to follow. Many of the things he said were reminders of things we should be doing rather than new things but this is great reinforcement. He gave us some really useful ways of considering things such as closing, developing a business plan and looking at things for the potential customer's point of view and considering why people buy.
Great seminar (10 out of 10)
Tom – September 2023
Great presentation and really hit the mark for me. No nonsense, straight to the point. Will definitely take a lot of confidence from your advice.
Good luck for the future.
