Debra delivered an amazing media sales training workshop to my team at News UK. Debra was engaging and used real-world examples when demonstrating her points, she has a charismatic way of making sure that everyone felt heard and was confident enough to speak up and share their thoughts and ideas as well as drawing more information out of people when she felt they had more to say. We all came away feeling energised with several pages of notes as well as some very important action points that I know the team is excited to start work on. We will keep an eye out for more general training as well as bespoke courses with Debra, it was the most engaging workshop I have had to date!

I attended one of Debra’s all day sales courses and found it to be great. Debra did such a good job of keeping us engaged the whole day with so much useful info, exercises to work on together and individually, and great lively discussion between us all. I feel like I've really learnt a lot and now have a great structure to work from going forwards as well as lots of new ideas to put into action. Thank you, Debra!

In a world full of buzz words etc it's easy to get lost in the hype of sales communication. I have over 30 years of sales experience but have had little formal training in sales till Debra. Her honesty, zest and pragmatism will inspire and reinvigorate you, to give you more drive, direction and focus and better abilities at executing your sales role. Debra is a sales trainer that I would recommend to anyone. She manages to be both all the steak you could wish for with excellent sizzle.

The feedback we get from the sales teams that work with Debra, be they new starters, experienced professionals or sales managers is uniformly excellent, more often than not with sales made the day after the training that we can directly link to Debra's work. I would have no hesitation in recommending her highly.
