WHAT previous DELEGATES SAY ...
"I considered myself to be reasonable good at marketing but Robert stopped me in my tracks. His style was both entertaining and oh so relevant; valuable ideas that I could take away and apply immediately. Others promise this, but Robert really delivered. I’d recommend it to anyone in business." John Sproson, Breakthrough Solutions
"A very big THANK YOU for an excellent presentation - both Richard and myself enjoyed this very much. It makes a big change to go to a presentation which is not "Death by Powerpoint" or where I end up falling asleep!
We have told everyone we know that they MUST go see your next presentation.
You were BRILLIANT and we look forward to your new book!"
Pamela Hardy - The IT Men Ltd, 0870 240 882.
'Last January, we were a team of just four with a turnover of around £150,000 a year and we look set to have almost doubled that in the past year and our aim is to take that to the half a million mark by year end 07, with profitability up by
about 30%.'
- NB, Managing Director, Media Company.
'Based on current bookings as of 11 Jan 2006, Q1 2006 will already be at least as good as Q4 2005, and looks like it could be 3 times the Q4 2005 revenue.'
- IW, Managing Director, Management Consultancy.
100% of delegates said they'd recommend The Directors' Centre workshop to a colleague; 99% said they'd do something fundamentally different as a result of the Let's Talk workshop.'
- Barclays July 2006
