Despite only being 2 days long, Richard was very sharp, informative and was able to connect with us all so well. He was very engaging and for me, this is vital to being able to learn and understand things better – What did you like most about this workshop?

My Business development team definitely experienced an insight into consultative sales process. Both new graduates and old timers benefited greatly. As a sales manager, "selling at a Higher level" will certainly help me achieve my objectives this year and beyond. – What did you like most about this workshop?

The constant ten's in this survey are not laziness - I genuinely thought that the course was informative, interesting, and interactive. Richard couldn't have been more professional and engaging, his demeanour and experience allowed for a relaxed environment and the depth of his knowledge was impressive. – What did you like most about this workshop?

I find that learning about how to do something and actually doing it in practice can be 2 different things. I liked the fact that I was able to incorporate my own experiences and seek advice on that.

Hi Tammy,
Thank you for the feedback. Also fair point re looping back at the end of the day - something we usually do but I didn't last week. Sorry about that.
I look forward to seeing you again in January.
Thanks,
Richard

I thought the trainer was excellent and very competent. His knowledge of selling and customer service was excellent and I liked his personable and relaxed training style. His organisation is something we'd potentially utilise for our own customer service training. I do think there is a need for training on marketing of voids best practice, in light of hard-to-let property challenges and welfare reform, which would be useful for ourselves and other participants. Perhaps this is something the NHC could look into as I'm sure you'd get a favourable response. Would it also be possible to share the 'tips' sheet that was circulated at the training? – What did you like most about this workshop?
