I'm Chris Burch, director of Absolutely Sales. The company specialises in performance improvement for sales, service and sales management professionals.
How do I add value?
Clients see me as a trusted business advisor and in many ways, an extension of their business. Not only do I provide tailored training for their sales teams, I act as a "fresh pair of eyes" on their sales organisation and am often used as an external "sounding board" by management.
What makes me different?
I've been selling all my life — and I still sell, as I don't have anyone making appointments for me or attending new client meetings on my behalf. That gives me a distinct advantage over some training companies and instant credibility with sales people — I'm more than just a trainer as I still live in their world. This makes it so much easier to discuss proven sales approaches and techniques with sales people, because the credibility is already there. Clients benefit from:
- 30+ years of sales experience
- 11 years of involvement in sales training, coaching and consultancy
- Extensive experience from a wide variety of market sectors
- UK and international experience
- A long-term relationship — Many of my clients have worked with me for over 5 years and 90% of my business comes from repeat work
