"Business goes where it is needed and stays where it is welcome." - Anon
This is a special part of my site, somewhat self indulgent, and something I am very appreciative of; however when people generously take the time to create a testimonial, I want to share them so that you can see for yourself what people have said about me and how useful they have found my training. Indulge this humble training consultant sharing some of these with you.

Simon has ninja-like training skills. He was among the most professional and dedicated people I worked with. He is one of the good guys.Simon Tapscott Founder/MD. Do Good Things
Simon is quite honestly the only person whom I would recommend for any training course. He is unique & refreshing in his approach, & as such obtains maximum interaction from all who attend. Valuable learning for us all, insightful, fun, approachable, genius methods, which captivate the doubters amongst us of which I was one. Not any longer, with Simon training you or your team you can only benefit. Thank you Simon, regards Carol.Carol Allen Srixon Sports Europe
I’ve had the pleasure of attending 5 of Simon’s courses this year; Resilience, Customer Service, Presenting Magically, Closing Skills and Time Management & Personal Effectiveness. Each 1 has been beneficial to me in both my job role and my personal life. Simon is a brilliant trainer, especially because he makes everyone feel included and shows that he values their opinions. The courses are always great fun and I really appreciate the skills he has taught me. I look forward to many more training classes with Simon in 2019!Lauren Harrison Assistant Category Manager at NMBS (National Merchant Buying Society)
I just completed 2 days of training with Simon and found it so refreshing. I walked away feeling that I am able to use everything I've learned in my current role. I found all the information we covered was useful and relevant. I enjoyed every minute and probably the most fun training I've had. Really looking forward to the future sessions we have.Sheena Turner Account Development Manager at CIPHR
Sales Training Testimonials for SerialTrainer7
What can I say about Simon that has not already been said! I had the pleasure of meeting Simon when my previous employer arranged for the team to undertake the SerialTrainer7 academy. Walking in to the meeting room on the first day expecting 2 days of death by PowerPoint and role-play, however this couldn't have been further form the truth, Simon put the team at ease within the first 5 minutes and what followed was 2 days of fantastic training, with the whole team completely engaged. Without a doubt some of the most valuable training I have undertaken in my 20 year sales career. I thoroughly recommend Simon to any organisation looking to take their sales team to the next level.John Jeynes Strategic Account Development Manager, MHR
Simon has done an amazing job job training and mentoring multiple teams and individuals for FutureUS. Feedback from the masses was extremely positive and many said they were able to apply the new skills immediately. I highly recommend you reach out to Simon if you are searching for corporate training for your organisation.Stacy Gaines Director of Sales. Future US
Having recently completed my first set of training sessions with Simon across the last few months, I can say with hand on heart that it has not only enriched my sales techniques but given me unparalleled confidence in my new position at MediaClash. Simon has given the team a broad understanding of sales; from negotiation to presentation skills. Although admittedly quite a daunting prospect having to put these skills into practice, they have naturally been filtering through into my every day work. Simon has an approach to presentation like no other; there are no tedious powerpoint presentations, his seminars/workshops are interactive and compelling. So much so that I have definitely been exhausted by the end of each day! Thank you for your valuable help at the initial stages of my career in media sales for Bath Life magazine. I look forward to working with you again in near future.Polly Jackson Account Manager at MediaClash
Simon has helped me with almost every aspect of my sales role and shown me a real science yet personal route to closing.Tom Radburn Advertising Brand Manager. Factory Media
Personal Development & Coaching Testimonials for SerialTrainer7
Simon was invaluable to myself, when I began to co-host a series of in-house training seminars. He really took the time to make me feel as if I could communicate quite complicated ideas effectively in a short space of time, even though I’d never hosted a large scale formal training session before.Joss Hutton Digital & Print Project Manager

I can’t speak any more highly of Simon and his training courses and style. I have attended a few of his courses now, and every session I have taken key and valuable actions to implement in my personal development. Additionally, on a number of occasions I have reached out to him outside the course times to ask questions and gave me his thoughts and he has recommended me some good books to read on specific topics. I really enjoy his natural approach, who engages the wider audience, but more importantly he takes time to know his audience with a relaxing and fun environment. If you are an ambitious individual who really looks at personal development, or someone who wants to improve aspects of your work, I would recommend Simon’s training sessions.Nuno Antunes Trust Service Partner, NHS Professionals
Having known and worked with Simon for many years, I was very pleased to have him on board as our trainer. Simon’s courses are brilliant and he spends time in tailoring them to your business needs and to attendees. He takes the time to get to know everyone, observe attendees, evaluate them and nourish them in the most effective way. This isn’t just for business gain, but he genuinely cares about an individual’s progress, both professionally and personally. His additional ongoing support of is valuable and shows the belief he has in individuals and where he can make a difference.Abi Pocock Clinical Trials Administrator, Royal United Hospital, NHS
Management Development Testimonials for SerialTrainer7
I don't think I'm alone in saying that when you see the words 'management training session' suddenly blocking out three hours of your day, you can't help but get THAT sinking feeling. And yet, from the moment we loaded up our Zoom call of five managers, Simon was immediately engaging, charismatic and genuinely inspirational. His training style had us constantly involved, discussing concepts and our own perspectives, and he cultivated an honest environment where we felt safe to share our thoughts. After only a few hours we were hungry for further reading, and the topics discussed had an immediate impact on my interactions with the team. Our follow up one-to-one call after the session was invaluable, and I feel significantly better placed to deal with the management challenges of our new working situation.Louise Blain Writer, producer & presenter, Dialect Inc
Just finished the second instalment of Sales Leadership Management training under the expert stewardship of Simon @ Serial Trainer 7. What a brilliant day, Simon has the unique talent of delivering a dynamic session in such an open, relaxed and informal manner. He has such a vast and deep understanding of all his topics covered, together with a complete reading list to further support his coaching. It is always a pleasure to work and continue to learn with Simon as his training skills are second to none.Regional Sales Director Regional Sales Director at Williamson-Dickie Europe
I first met Simon in the Summer of 2019 during our face to face training course. This year we had a new focus on refreshing our skills and due to COVID the course was covered virtually and I had initial reservations. I can honestly say I did not need to worry. There was no death by powerpoint just a wealth of knowledge delivered in an interactive way that left me with tactics I could use implement immediately. Simon has a way of making everyone feel an important and equal part of the conversation. Simon is authentic, likeable and talks with passion that cannot fail to excite you, rare among the trainers I have seen over the years! Thank you!Helen Johnson Business Development Manager, isGroup Signs
Simon has carried out various training for my management team over recent years and he has been fantastic. Every time Simon conducts his training, my staff leave enthused, excited and eager to implement and put into practice everything they have learned. This is not only down to the high quality training aides but is also down to the instructor, Simon, himself. Simon's natural flair and passion is simply infectious. He has such a vast knowledge on all management subjects and the way he delivers it, really resonates with all of my staff. Simon's greatest skill though is understanding people and how we are all different. He is very quick to read and understand people, how they work and their strengths and weaknesses and automatically tailors his approach to ensure they gain the most from his sessions. A really exception trainer.George Robert Knott Operations Manager at Acado
