MARKETING, SALES & BUSINESS PROMOTIONAL MANAGEMENT & SALES STAFF RECRUITMENT SUPPORT

I am EXPERIENCED and SKILLED at preparing BUSINESS and MARKETING PLANS and WINNING TENDERS and PRE-QUALIFICATION SUBMISSIONS for SMALLER BUSINESSES and I can quickly IDENTIFY the STRONG and WEAK points in existing marketing and sales ideas, strategies and plans using my LOGIC and COMMON-SENSE, ANALYTICAL thought processes.

Having accumulated a wealth of information on my own and my many clients' successes and failures with many different approaches to marketing and sales, I have developed a strong instinct for the subject, coupled with a clear understanding and knowledge of textbook theory.

I have put this instinct to practical and effective use by acting as a reliable sounding board and by giving real-life advice and guidance to business start-ups, potential new businesses and small businesses looking to expand.

I have saved my clients many thousands of pounds simply by holding back overly-enthusiastic owners / directors / partners from wasting money on inappropriate advertising and external services that do not offer genuine or adequate value for money.

I have similarly advised on the recruitment of the most appropriate types of sales people, thus preventing the employment of expensive individuals who were not best suited to the tasks required of them.  I also work with an associate who specialises in SALES EXECUTIVE STAFF RECRUITMENT, using psychometric testing to help pinpoint the ACTUAL strengths and weknesses of an individual, as against those that he / she CLAIMS to have or NOT have.

I provide pro-active support and hands-on creative input to sales & marketing presentations followed by attendance and if required, taking the lead at the actual presentation to the client audience / interviewing panel - see Visual Sales Presentations and Video & Photo Support.
