I work closely with business owners to simplify and reduce their gas, electricity and water costs. I focus on building long-term relationships, providing honest, independent advice and ongoing account management so clients always have someone they can trust looking after their utilities. Supporting SME Growth We believe sales is unnecessarily hard for many SMEs. Client Match designs growth environments that help the right people understand, trust and value a business earlier, reducing the need for salesy, persuasive tactics later. The environment does more of the work, so salespeople can act more naturally: as helpful guides, rather than stereotypical salespeople. Advice is at the heart of our service. We recognise the importance of delivering ideas, solutions and strategic advice to owner managers on a range of issues. We operate across all sectors which enables us to be truly commercial in our approach. Our core values are built around the concept of streamlining clients financial systems, reducing tax or working with them to obtain grant funding. Why choose in-person sales coaching from Coach My Sales to bring sales transformation to your business? To be successful and bring the growth that you desire, I’m sure we agree that your business needs a competitive edge. In this age of generic advice from internet searches and AI, there is a danger that your sales approach will not stand out from the rest. These sources are based on what others have done in the past; they lack innovation and may yield nothing better than your competitors’ strategies. Sales coaching enables you to discover for yourself what is best for you and your business. Yes, there are tried and tested principles and processes that can be applied, but how will you know and learn what specifically works for you? How does this differ from sales training you may already have experience of? Sales training is insightful at the time but ineffective in changing behaviours unless followed by ongoing coached practice. Insights don't drive profits; habit change does! Why invest in something that typically yields a 10% knowledge retention rate after 90 days? A full ‘Sales Growth Audit’ covering your people and processes is always the first stage to identify what is working and what isn't. This informs and empowers the setting of goals that will bring the transformation you require. We then look at what actions (including coaching and training) will achieve the required changes in culture, behaviours, systems, and processes. The result? It’s not just about transforming your sales figures; it’s about bringing that transformation to your business as a whole. Everyone benefits from a more effective, efficient, profitable, and sustainable sales environment. We work with start-ups and new businesses looking for initial direction, through to established businesses looking for fresh input.
