Testimonials

 "As soon as Josh Gilbertson introduced me to the Sandler Sales System I could see it was totally different to other sales systems. Having no formal sales training but tasked with needing to sell for my own business I was determined to find the BEST sales system to use and I have found that in Sandler. The system differentiates me from my competitors quickly because of the no-pressure, dignified nature of it. Prospects very quickly open up about their true problems because they can see that we are trying to build trusted advisor relationships with them (thanks to the Sander system). As soon as I was able to hire a sales manager I made sure that person was Sandler-trained for the simple reason that is works incredibly well. Josh at Sandler Training London is a fantastic trainer and totally committed to the success of his clients and I wholeheartedly recommend their services." - Mike Bradley, Managing Director, 1stPageProphets (Internet Marketing)

"We attend a number of seminars and training events and were astounded at the cutting edge techniques and processes learnt from this course. We learnt to recognise the unrewarding ‘buyer-seller dance’, ‘avoiding the long no’ and obtaining agreement through an ‘up-front contract’ allowing us to establish whether a commercial relationship is ‘mutually’ worthwhile. We completed the course in the unique position of having easy to learn, ready-made powerful tips and strategies for progressing our business to another level. For serious business people looking to gear their Company in a difficult market, Sandler Sales provide a great strategic investment." - Rob Killeen, Business Manager, Capital Fortune (Online Mortgage Service)
 
"Sandler training provided a clear and structured to the tools needed for a successful Sales person. The knowledge I gained from the training has allowed me to see clearer what's needed to help improve the Sales performance within the organisation and the steps needed to get there.  All in all, it is the best session of its kind I've participated in and only a quarter the time taken". - Stuart  Grant, FS Business Development Director ,  Sybase

"The Sandler sales methodology is inspirational and effective in changing attitudes and behaviours.  Our sales and client services teams now have a consistent approach and a common language and I would now find it difficult to consider any other sales methodology. I have personally attended numerous sales training courses in my 20 years of working within sales but can honestly say that this has been the best and most effective training course I have attended by far. I am really pleased with the results and I know the management team all rate Luke very highly both as a sales and and management mentor". - Daniel King, Hitwise

"Thanks to Sandler, Luke Davies & Joshua Gilbertson. Your "lightbulb effect" system has helped us improve revenue by 60% and given us the confidence to develop leads in any situation". - Jason Cobine, Managing Director, Cobine Carmelson (Insurance Broker)

"Our choice to work with Luke Davies (a proven master in high tech selling who installs total confidence having actually climbed the mountain of challenges by following the Sandler system) has been an investment decision not a budgetary one. In today's economy results are what counts and for us ROI has been proven by following the Sandler principles". - Phil Jones, Director, Timewatch (SME-Medium sized software company)

"I had the belief I was better than my competition at what I delivered but found I was falling into unpaid consulting that often lead to us competing on price. Joshua Gilbertson has led me to new confidence and ability to break this costly pattern, retaining my dignity and ultimately bringing in more quality business at higher average order values". - Lisa Oliver, Managing Director, Stedman Oliver [Creative]

"Quite simply, Luke Davies demonstrates that untold millions of man hours of sales experience has been distilled by Sandler into a methodology that will deliver results more quickly than any other route I have seen". - Greg White, Director, Head of UK Finance Sector - Symantec Corp.

"Your superb sales and sales management training programmes continue to deliver the edge we need, and your training efforts continue to earn an astounding 93 percent approval rating!  Thats why we've decided to bring the sales force of our new division under the Sander umbrella."  - G Miller, Sr VP of Sales - Cap Gemini Ernst & Young

"Before Sandler I was wasting valuable time on prospects that drifted and never closed. Working with Luke and Josh I had the breakthrough that I was able to truly qualify prospects discovering the true issues and therefore concentrating only on prospects that I had a chance of closing. We now don't waste time on time wasters and we are more profitable." - Phil Jones, Sales Director, Timewatch plc. (Software Company)

"We chose the Sandler System for its unconventional and highly effective approach to client centred selling." - Peter O'Neill Sales Director IBM

"Our sales reps really needed a system --a track to run on. We tried all of the 'as old standards,' but in the end, we always reverted to our old habits.... With Sandler on our team, the sales reps and sales managers feel we have a discipline that saves a lot of time and helps us qualify our prospects better. The proof lies in the fact that our closing rates have improved, the sales cycle is shortened, fewer quotes are going out to unqualified prospects and we can now more effectively handle the bid wars with the competition."  - Barry Kinney Regional Sales Manager, ADT Security Systems

"Sandler has been "the lightbulb" experience for Central Health.  Luke and Josh have given us confidence in our approach to selling and networking and we now have a structure that is consistent, deliverable and above all gets results." - Simon Shepard, Managing Director, Central Health

"After only my second lesson, I found myself with a prospect whose interest in my company was 'going south.' On the spur-of-the-moment, I dropped in at the prospect's office. Using only the two ideas I had just learned, I walked out 45 minutes later with a signed contract and a check! Sandler has helped me, a computer professional with no sales background, to increase my sales by 500 percent in less than one year; more than double my average price; sell to a higher-level clientele; and stop being an unpaid consultant."  - Jack Reiner  President, The Creative Internet

"Oxxygen Marketing supports the Sandler Sales Technique because it redresses the balance of power during prospect meetings making it a level playing field thereby affording a much greater opportunity to close sales and increase our client base.  Max Jenvey, Managing Director, says ‘the Sandler Sales Technique transformed our sales pipeline process and we are looking forward to working with Joshua and the team to further enhance our skills and sales!" - Max Jenvey, Managing Director, Oxxygen Marketing

"The changes in my sales approach and success have been unparalleled. I have shortened my selling cycle and improved the quality of the sales interviews. Instead of haggling over price, my prospect meetings have an almost therapeutic quality to them. The 'up-front contract' and 'pain funnel' questions are the two techniques responsible for this dramatic change. In less than 60 days, I have seen a major change in the way in which we conduct sales.... This has resulted in a 40 percent increase in December 1999 year-on-year sales." - Don Osborne, President, The inQuartra Companies

"We took our least experienced salesperson and put him in the Sandler program. He became our most profitable salesperson, with double-digit sales and gross profit increases every month. We then enrolled our entire sales team in the program.... I have been through other sales training courses, but none of them can hold a candle to Sandler. We use it daily to help us achieve our aggressive sales goals."  - David Pfeil Vice President, Fluid-Air Products, Inc.

"Twelve weeks ago my manager of corporate sales started the Sandler Selling System President's Club. The change in her is remarkable. Not only has she learned and utilized new and innovative sales techniques, she has become a much more confident, positive individual. Her Tuesday morning meetings for the last 12 weeks have energized her. She has become a much more assertive salesperson, going after big accounts that are tough sales. And she's getting the sale time after time."  - Lisa Craig Vice President, Weight Watchers  

"As a top producer at Nationwide Insurance, I have been exposed to dozens of training programs. The Sandler Selling System is the most practical and certainly the most effective of all the training material I have used over the years. I have saved thousands of man-hours and increased my income tremendously using the Sandler Selling System." - J. Phillips, Nationwide Insurance 

"We were battling to make cold calls consistently and our clients were trying to push us down on rates. We are now making effective cold calls, using a dignified approach that makes us look different from the competition, meeting many more qualified companies and have even managed to increase our rates. This Sandler stuff really works and I am actually having fun doing it too!" - Natasha Waas, Director, Charity People (Recruitment Company) 

"The concepts are quite practical, offering simple, common sense ideas allowing me to maintain a strong focus on my goals and those of my team.  The weekly reinforcement role plays and coaching have enabled me to master a winning sales system.  Your programs offer the best aspects of Carnegie, Covey and hard-core salesmanship.  It's great to be in control and proactive!!!" - Richard S. Newcombe, President & CEO, Creators Syndicate 

"When introducing a new product to a niche market we needed to plan a deliberate growth in revenues, we also realised it was time to introduce a more systematic and measurable approach to sales. Our sales were doing well, but there were still difficulties in looking different from the competition and some sales approaches were producing inconsistent performances. I chose the Sandler Sales System which is helping us build a highly effective, motivated and forward thinking sales team that looks and behaves very differently to the competition in the market place. We are now on track for a massive increase in sales revenue for the current financial year and have a very exciting pipeline developing for the coming year." - Bob Smart, Head of Business Development, UKN Group (Specialist IT Services Firm) 

"Frequent reinforcement of desired sales behaviour!! Experienced effective sales coaches."- Adam Murphy, Director, Design Company 

"Chambers Travel has seen a dramatic increase in sales/customers over the last couple of years and as a service focused company, we identified a need to manage our clients more profitability and proficiently.  The Sandler training programme, highlighted the positive actions we take quite naturally, but also added to our portfolio of skills and tools.  Each candidates' confidence has grown and the commercial results have been amazing, specifically relating to securing contracts and pricing schedules, increased sales as well as more balanced client/supplier relationships." - Joanne Worrow, Head of Business Management, Chamber Travel Management(Best Sales/Business Team 2007 , TIG Business Awards 2007)  

"After accidentally falling into a role that encompassed a large sales component I was very uncomfortable about this "sales side"! The thought of selling made me feel ill. I thought I was going to lose my job. I met Josh and Luke who have helped me transform this head trash by teaching me to apply the Sandler process. I am now comfortable in the sales role, don't come across as "stereotype salesperson" I have strong and deep relationships with my clients, not afraid of a "no" and I don't waste time on unqualified prospects who were never going to buy. As a result I am able to do all the activities required to get the results I require and I am now the top performer in my company." -Anna Trubuhovich, Business Manager, Accomplish Management (Sponsorship and events) 

"Sandler Guru's! Before this working with Josh and Luke my company Elite Office Assistant had just begun providing telesales as a new service using the traditional sales technique of seeking to impress prospective clients by showing them how ‘great' we are.  Working with Josh and Luke has been an eye opener and a real education.  The Sandler Sales System has revolutionized my business.  Because of it I have been able to open another business, Elite TeleSales, which uses the Sandler System exclusively.  We now look different in the market place and our unique approach to clients and prospects has doubled our sales figures." - Joanne Gordon, Managing Director, Elite Office Assistant (Virtual Office and Telemarketing) 

"Since we attended the Sandler Sales Training we have implemented a new sales approach which we call the Centurion Approach. It includes the 7 techniques as recommended by Sandler. Whilst it is early days to measure any success, we are confident that the training will give us more success in the near future." - Matthew Price, Head of Sales & Marketing, Centurion Management Systems Limited  

"The 2 hours I spent at the Sandler seminar was frankly inspiring.  The session was focused, informative and re-energized both confidence in my ability to sell and the determination to do so.  Sales people do not generally enjoy a good reputation, but the Sandler technique enables one to enter the sales process on an equal footing with the potential purchaser.  I look forward to booking myself in for the 2 day course and thereafter much improving my bottom line." - Fiona Gale, Senior Partner, Only Connect Solutions Ltd (Public Relations) 

"I attended a free seminar on the Sandler sales technique and was ready to sign up to the president's club. That first session gave me a brief insight into a sales method that, (despite being American), did not make me uncomfortable. As a medical professional who provides a service, I have always been uncomfortable with "selling" my services but I can honestly say that over the last 6 months, my sales have increased and my whole confidence on the Sales arena has changed quite dramatically. I recommend you give it a go and now not tomorrow!" - Natasha Price, Managing Director, Central Health 

"When I found Sandler I didn't hesitate for a moment enrolling in ongoing work. I knew that this training would skyrocket my results and a small share of my commission would cover the cost of the program. What I didn't expect is that I would be doubling the sales record of the company only using the up front contract technique alone. Luke and Josh are great trainers, mentors and I see them now as friends." - Joao Correia. 

"As a partner in a professional services organisation, I am only too aware that whilst we have ample technical training, we have never had adequate training for our sales skills. With this in mind, I attended Luke Davies's sales seminar on the Sandler approach. I was so impressed that not only did I invite Luke to visit us to give his presentation to my partners, but also felt that my clients must have the opportunity to find out about it too; so we are hosting a Sandler sales seminar at our office for Luke to present to them - because I'm sure many of them could benefit."- Robert Glazer, Senior Partner, Ripe Financial (Chartered Accountants )

"Break the Rules. Win more Business - this seminar might not be for everyone, but if you are experiencing challenges in winning more business and want to improve your sales techniques then there will be a lot in it for you. Through a nurturing process the seller establishes effective communication with the buyer, spends more time listening to their needs and follows a consistent plan to meet that need and establish whether or not business can be done. In this way the Sales Success Triangle, which consists of Attitude, Technique and Behaviour, is identified as a flexible framework by which to account for the effectiveness of the process. A lot of thought-provoking material is packed into this seminar, which will be of benefit to businesses of all sizes." -Graham Tomas, GT Consulting, Managing Director
