I had the pleasure of attending Sarah's Sales Workshop for the events industry and it was outstanding. Sarah has a way of making sales feel a lot less scary and breaks down the tasks and buts and bolts of sales and planning. She has a passion for the events industry and is really well equipped with the passion, knowledge and experience to support sales teams in delivering results. I highly recommend her as a workshop presenter and facilitator.
I have had the pleasure of attending a couple of Sarah's workshops and I found them very insightful and well structured. It is an excellent investment of your time leaving you walking away with more confidence and enthusiasm towards effective lead generation and how to successfully convert them into sales. Sarah is an absolute wealth of knowledge and creates such a welcoming environment making it so easy to share experiences, ask questions and have an open discussion. At no point did the workshop feel rushed or overwhelming. One of the most valuable takeaways for me was the approach to lead generation which is achievable to incorporate into daily business operations. The suggested generation tactics were clear using real world examples and practical advice. It was also great to be able to make new connections with like minded professionals from within our industry and hear how they’re tackling some challenges which we hadn’t considered.
