Why do Small Businesses need Expert Sales Advice by Kieran Perry

03 Mar 2019


According to joint research undertaken earlier this year, with over 1000 respondent’s, business owners are looking for help with:

• Cashflow and forecasting
• Getting new clients
• Managing Staff
• Keeping ahead of the competition
• Company expansion
• Sales
• Industry challenges

Three of these are related directly to growth – new clients, expansion and sales – 24 % planned to invest in marketing services.

It is reported that most business owners want to grow, get more clients & employ more people. They are also optimistic - 78 % foresee growth in the next 12 months and 54 % are looking to employ more people.
But, despite research in support of the benefits of mentoring - 67 % have not received any advice from a sales mentor or business coach.

Many business owners are “technicians” they went into business because they were really good at something – fixing air-conditioners, building decking, maintaining pools or cooking Italian meals – this does not automatically translate into being a good business owner – it is a different skillset and different knowledge is required, this is where a expert business coach or trainer can help, giving you an outsiders opinion and guidance to help get you where you want your business to be.

Working hands-on in the business doesn’t leave a lot of time to build a marketing plan, forecast, manage staff, develop customers or plan for next year and the future.

"I can summarise what you should be doing - and provide you with a shortcut of how to get there."
