Our business GO Rentals has had an association with Andrew over the last seven years. In that time, our company has grown over 600% and Andrews coaching services have been a big factor in achieving this. I believe one of the reasons Andrew has had such great success with our teams is the way he gets engagement with team members during his coaching sessions. We’ve been specifically focusing on improving the sales processes within our business, as well as upskilling our call center team.
Our initial brief to Andrew was to focus on improving our sales processes. Within a very short time of appointing Andrew to work with our teams, and improve our sales processes’ we nearly doubled our conversion rate.
Over the years he has delivered countless courses for the business and added further value with one on one coaching of our sales team. We continue to work with Andrew because he delivers results time and time again, our conversion rates are at what we believe to be record industry levels.
Andrew is enthusiastic, engaging, very knowledgeable and he has spent hours of his own time getting to understand our business and our staff. All in all, we have certainly gained a fantastic return on investment. I would highly recommend Andrew Mearns & Associates to any business wishing to improve its bottom line via staff engagement, sales performance and especially their conversion rates.

How would you rate our Sales Training 2018 Facilitator – Andrew Mearns?

Excellent

What was the most important thing you learned from the training?

The importance of a Sales Process

Ways to close a deal

The benefits of having a sales process

How could you apply what was learned to your role?

I can use a sales process in my everyday job, visiting customers, selling to customers.

Ways to close a deal will also help, as Andrew explained if you  have earned the right to close the deal there is no reason you shouldn’t ask customers for their business.

Would you like to attend a training like this next year?

I would love to attend again next year. It was fantastic to actually learn from someone that has previously worked in the car industry. Andrews knowledge was fantastic, everything I learnt through out the day will definitely help me in my everyday job and has given me far more confidence when speaking to a customer. Because when I follow the process the majority of the time there should be no issues.

Matt McCullough – Dolphin Shipping – Division Nichibo  

Andrew provided our New, Used and Finance sales team with a fantastic bespoke training programme.  The team genuinely enjoyed spending time with Andrew, his presentations are high energy and he built rapport with everyone instantly. 

Andrew’s track record shows his success in the automotive industry, as well mastering sales teams in many other sectors.  This gave him the unique benefit of being able to “walk the talk” plus also offer a different perspective on other selling techniques.  His sales philosophies offer a mix of the proven methods, plus up to minute ideas on how to deal with the modern customer and buying cycle.  The materials were very thorough and hit all the keys points of how to succeed as a sales professional. 

The brief we gave Andrew was to turn our team from “good to great” and he has delivered.  The two months following the training saw the team break several records, there is no doubt that Andrew’s processes and system had a large part to play in this.  We will continue to use Andrew’s services to keep our sales team on track and ensure they have the tools to maximise every opportunity. 

I have not experienced a sales training course as thorough or as relevant as Andrew’s and I would highly recommend engaging him to take your sales team to the next level.  If helpful, I am more than happy expand on my thoughts over the phone.

Andrew’s ability as a sales trainer is second to none. I have engaged Andrew on numerous occasions and he has never failed to deliver. He completes thorough research up front on your business and areas of focus to ensure he delivers not only a top notch program but ensures sales people walk away with the skill set that can be applied straight away. I would recommend Andrew to anyone that is looking to getting more from their sales team.
