"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.

General Advocacy for SerialTrainer7
When I started my entrepreneurial journey, and subsequently, my LinkedIn journey, I can easily say one of the absolute highlights of both was meeting Simon and getting to know him on a professional as well as personal level. A true gentleman, consummate professional, and brilliant sales and management coach, I can't think of anyone I would want to recommend more in any capacity. From smart, cutting edge sales training to award-winning leadership and management coaching, Simon does it all, and does it with class, style, and a whole lot of fun! His advice and golden nuggets are always spot on and amazingly helpful, and I think everyone on LinkedIn looks forward to his next review of the latest sales book on the market! If your company needs any help at all with sales, leadership, or management, "your next click" is Simon and his company, Serial Trainer 7. I feel quite honored to call him a colleague and a friend, and cannot recommend him enough.Allan Langer Trainer & Coach - CUSTOMIZED
Simon’s ‘Sales School’ training sessions instilled the confidence I needed to improve my company’s sales techniques and now I’m seeing the rewards. As a sales training coach he’s second-to-none, providing constructive advice along with his vast experience in a wide variety of sales training methods. I’d thoroughly recommend him if you’re serious about improving your business’ sales strategies.Lawrence Tilley Director, Design for Digital
Training can only have an impact if it is engaging and you can apply it to your role and that is exactly how Simon trains. You can tell how much passion Simon has for getting across his training in the right way and he is always able to give real world examples. Simon is a great guy that practises what he preaches and I can not highly recommend him enough for any training needs you may have.Reece Gerrard Category Manager, NMBS (National Merchant Buying Society)
Simon demonstrated a high level of expertise. His training was clear and immediately actionable and he was sensitive to all my teams’ needs. In addition, his style was open and inviting to questions and he willingly gave his time to responding to questions thoroughly. He provided a fun and engaging learning environment. Simon is extremely enthusiastic about his work which is infectious. He is courteous and considerate and I would certainly recommend him for any future training.Bill Austin Head of Direct Services, Trowbridge Town Council
Sales Training Testimonials for SerialTrainer7
Simon truly is a fantastic trainer. Having been in the sales industry for a long time I thought I knew a lot however Simon proved otherwise. He showed me different processes and ways of thinking. The training was delivered in both a fun but more importantly a professional manor. I would highly recommend Simon to any company who want to better their sales team in order to achieve better results.Craig Wallberg Senior Sales Executive - Exeter Living Magazine & Crumbs Devon

Management Development Testimonials for SerialTrainer7
A dedicated individual who is focussed, driven and excels in the environment he works in. His attention to detail and commitment are just part of the make up that make him an exemplary operator.David Bloomfield Commercial Director. Ink Publishing.
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
I have just completed Simon's Management and Leadership Academy and I can't speak highly enough of him as a trainer. He tailored his sessions to us as a class, spending longer on problem areas and understanding when we'd got enough of a handle on an idea to be able to move on. The whole course was run remotely, but it didn't for one moment feel as though we were missing out. There were plenty of well timed breaks, and Simon did his best to pair heavier subjects with lighter ones to make the process of learning that much easier. I have learned so much.Elspeth Hinde Product Manager, Network N
Myself and my colleagues received several training sessions from Simon, all of which were excellent; interesting, informative, fun, modern, collaborative. I've now attended sales, management and negotiation courses with him and have picked up a wealth of new skills and information each time. The experience as a whole was extremely refreshing, and even a day-long course over several hours seems to fly by. I would highly recommend Simon and SerialTrainer7.Ryan Napolitano Network Partnerships Manager at Network N Ltd
