"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.

My Wonderful Clients I've Trained & Coached

General Advocacy for SerialTrainer7

Simon is a fantastic trainer with a real passion for supporting and developing talent. Ive attended many of his sessions over the years and always found them fun, engaging and extremely worthwhile. I’d recommend Simon for any business wanting to invest in sales people, you’ll be in safe hands…

Rob Last Commercial Director at Supply Clouds

Simon brings clarity, inventiveness and precision born out of expert knowledge. He maintains a light touch but has relentless focus on the particular tasks at hand. Those he trains and supports are more effective for it.

Derwent Campbell Senior Partner. Mogers Solicitors LLP

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

SerialTrainer7 has both inspired and encouraged our team to look after each other and to look for those early signs which sometimes show themselves when people are perhaps overcommitted or just need a little help. The training was informative and great fun and I am sure was also one of the best team building exercises we have ever done.

Sales Training Testimonials for SerialTrainer7

Simon organised and ran one of the first sales management courses I ever attended and much of what I learnt by way of coaching and managing a sales team then, I still use today.

David Fieldhouse Digital Sales Manager. Archant

I contacted Simon amongst many other sales trainers as I was starting a new role and wanted to ensure I was full prepared. Simon was far superior to all others that I had contacted, he asked what I wanted to achieve and built a 6 week program around that. After completing the program I started my new role and within the first quarter I had already exceeded my sales quota and am into my first full year and 2 months in I have achieved 53% of my annual number. I would love to say this was all me but credit where credits due, he has great sales knowledge and couldn't recommend him more.

Edward F. Application and Risk Security Specialist

It’s an incredibly humbling experience to meet someone that makes a truly significant and positive impression, Simon is one of those people and for all the right reasons. Having spent 2 days on one of Simon’s courses (walking into the door with an element of scepticism) I can honestly say that I came away from the session in awe of his knowledge and natural ability to connect with people! A true master of his craft, his passion translates into an overwhelmingly valuable service where he understands what’s important to you as a business. I now feel more confident, informed and valuable as a sales person, as a result of the training Simon has provided with me seeing immediate results using his methods! Thank you Simon for the best course I’ve ever attended. Don’t hesitate to book Simon Hares... he breaks the mould but in the way we wish all people would!

Thomas Kanchanawat Business Development Manager - Green Gourmet Ltd

Had an incredible time with Simon for a 3 day sales training. I am super grateful to have learned from someone with the experience that Simon has this early in my career. Feel much more confident in my ability to work with clients to be the best resource to them. Many Thanks!

Personal Development & Coaching Testimonials for SerialTrainer7

Simon's training has been fundamental in helping me to step up my skills as an employee, a colleague, and a manager. His straightforward, no-nonsense approach will have you quickly seeing every day work situations in a new light, as well as your role in your business and team. I've learned how to amplify not only my own strengths, but those of my teammates, too. Expect sage advice, expect to be faced with challenges, and expect to (safely) step outside your comfort zone, with great reward. I'd recommend Simon and SerialTrainer7 in a heartbeat.

Emma Park Campaign Executive / Freelance Artist / WIGJ Ambassador

Simon is inspiring and motivating. He makes training fun and interesting whilst ensuring you take away skills which you can use both in and out of work. What also sets him apart is the support and follow up after the course to ensure you’re continual personal development. Highly recommend.

Robin Sheppard

He challenges me to take responsibility for my personal performance and always tailors training to individual circumstances. I apply his advice and always experience direct results, he is the most effective trainer and coach I have ever encountered.

Clair Atkins Account Director. Future Plus

Each lesson in Simon's Serial Training was purposeful, unique and engaging. He has a true skill in providing personalized insight and process to everyday situations. At the end of the three day session, I felt that Simon was apart of our team sitting at the end of the table. I couldn't have higher praise for Simon and would implore anyone considering for Sales Training, Coaching and Development to contact him first.

Management Development Testimonials for SerialTrainer7

Cannot recommend Simon enough. After just completing an intensive course remotely on Management and Leadership, I have come away with more in-depth knowledge on areas I had touched on in my CIMA studies as well as areas I was not familiar with. Although some areas were out of my comfort zone, there was no judgement and the feeling of being part of close group was something not encountered on a training course before. I love the way Simon is so honest and open with us. It allows you to be comfortable sharing your thoughts and opinions to help work through issues and develop further.

Sharon Addenbrooke Finance Manager, Network N

I have attended four different training sessions hosted by Simon. Each and everyone of them were insightful and practical. The activities and discussions during the training were interesting and definitely helped me understand each subject matter better. I not only learnt a lot about the subject but about myself too. I highly recommend Simon for management and sales training.

Pin-Ju Chiang Network Director, Network N

Simon was recommended to us just under 12 months ago when we asked him to run a Selling Skills Workshop for our Sales team. Simon is enthusiastic, engaging and a complete expert in his field and the training was some of the most successful we have delivered. Since then I have come to view Simon as an extension to our HR function providing training ranging from Customer Services and Resilience through to Communications Skills and our next exciting project of creating a management academy for our first line managers. Without Simon I simply wouldn’t have been able to deliver this calibre of training to our teams within my budget. I trust in his delivery entirely and always find we are on the same page when we discuss the outputs required from training. He has fantastic insight through his work with so many organisations worldwide and uses a great blend of the fundamentals of any given subject with the latest thinking and application in today’s forever changing workplace. Simon is a pleasure to work with and I’m thrilled to call him part of the Green Gourmet team.

Caroline Barnes Head of HR at Green Gourmet Ltd

Just a quick note to say that I thoroughly recommend Serial Trainer 7. Simon's courses are clear and informative and arm you with useful tools. I attended Simon's 'Management Academy' and what is most impressive about it is how each module links to and reinforces the others. What makes the training particularly good is the man himself, Simon is charismatic, genuine and supportive. It's worth mentioning that the course is fun, whether via video chat or in person.
