The Problem with sales training?
All too often training companies use the same model as a takeaway delivery service….
They take your payment, pick up a product someone else has made, drop it off at your doorstep and disappear. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t deliver what you asked for or that they charged you too much. And much like a takeaway; each time you place an order you end up ordering the same thing time and time again.
There has to be a better way, right?
Your Sales Trainer places a Geek in the heart of your business. They work alongside your team using their experience to train and develop your staff in real-time using real-live deals as growth opportunities. Your Sales Trainer works in the medium term upskilling your whole sales environment before developing an exit strategy that leaves your business enriched with high-quality staff that get results.

Key Questions
We have the answers
When it comes to Sales Training most people have two crucial questions.
How do I know if the sales training is going to be any good?
Our trainers have hundreds of years of collective experience, which combined with cutting edge resources and an approach bespoke to your needs means you can be assured that the training you receive will be effective in the areas you need it to be. Our industry leading sales training has been endorsed by the Institute of Sales Professionals (ISP), a rare award and a rigorous process that checked the quality of training, our associated resources and their efficacy. It means the ISP can issue your team members with CPD points for each hour of Geek training they complete as they work towards a professional accreditation. For example if a team member completes our Sales Essentials training and the ISP Ethics in Sales course they will achieve accredited status and for a small annual fee become Members or Leaders of the Institute of Sales Professionals with the post-nominals to match. We have worked hard in our collaboration to ensure that your team receive the best quality training to improve their skillsets and achieve the legitimacy within your industry as a result.
Will the sales training distract us from our core function of actually selling our product/service?
Our Geeks work alongside your team using their experience to train and develop your staff in real-time using real-live deals as growth opportunities.

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Sales Geek. The professionalism, content, presentation and over all experience was marvellous from start to finish. I cannot recommend enough the personal, patient, but hugely experienced attitudes and work ethics of the whole company that has already been very influential and impacting. I very much look forward to working closely with them again soon.

Our team have thoroughly enjoyed the course of sales training. I wanted someone from outside the industry and it’s given the team a huge boost with list of conversation on lots of the content and has soon been put into action. Thank you Graeme

I’m really enjoying these sessions, so much to consider. Delivered in a thought provoking and interesting way. Interactive and encourages out of the box thinking. Great for social enterprises selling specific products.

Jerry’s skill as a trainer compliments his extensive knowledge of sales practice and theory. Expertly tailored to address the challenges and opportunities for a small business owner, I would highly recommend his Sales Supercharger course to anyone struggling to make their business grow.

Overall, the slides were really useful. I’d recommend this course to anyone who is interested in working out how to do sales well particularly like the fact that it’s an interactive course. I think David is an accomplished presenter and it makes you feel like you do actually know stuff. Even if you feel like you’re a little less knowledgeable than you probably should be.

Such a lovely environment. Aaron created a very safe space where I felt able to share when I hadn’t thought about something. No judgement! Looking forward to the next!
Massive thank you!

David’s style is super and creates a really inclusive environment that enables everyone to feel ‘safe’ to participate & to contribute. He adds huge value, offers advice & can happily go ‘off piste’ when required. Brilliant session

No improvements, just a note of thanks for such a valuable and thought provoking workshop, as a result I feel more confident about the objections process and have some good takeaways for handling objections successfully.
