“Mike Clarkson was excellent, and his practical approach enabled us to deal with key issues in a clear and analytical way. I have received positive feedback from all of the delegates and comments afterwards included the following responses: “well presented, enjoyable, well rounded, informative and fun. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mike Clarkson"

Catriona Urquhart-Lintz of Marketing Manchester

 

 

“I recently attended the Psychology of Sales course with Mike. This is the third course I have attended which Mike has taken, and like the previous ones, I left better, sharper and re-focussed.

Mike had the difficult task of working with a very mixed ability group, and managed neither to overwhelm the less skilled nor bore the more skilled members of the team. Mike delivers in a relaxed manner, yet keeps delegates on track. I look forward to my next course with Mike and have no hesitation in recommending his services to sales professionals of whatever level.”

Tony Ware of Ryder Plc

 

Sales training is always difficult to run with sales employees at different levels of experience. Mike evaluated and assessed our requirements and what we as a Company wanted to achieve. He offered several options and advised us on the best course of action we needed to take to achieve our overall goals within our time frame. A really professional, in-depth training session followed, with another 3 pencilled in for the remained of the year. I would certainly recommend Mike to other potential customers"

Maria Vizard of Burnt Tree Vehicle Hire

“All our managers now really understand the benefit effective appraisals can make to the business, and they are currently in the process of putting their new-found skills to the test. The course tutor, Mike Clarkson, was extremely popular"

Graham Yemm

 

 

Experience

 

After graduating Graham began his working life in teaching, before moving into sales. He sold successfully to a wide variety of businesses and levels within them. After a period on the road he moved into personnel and training for a spell before moving into Sales Management.

 

Following several years here, he moved to the RMC Plc, as Group Sales Training Manager where he was responsible for developing a range of Sales and Management programmes, primarily for use in the UK , though many of them were used throughout the overseas subsidiaries. Additionally, he became involved in advising some of the Operating Companies on their sales approach. This combination of training and “internal” consultancy proved to be the catalyst for his move from the Group. Whilst expanding the role of this department within the Group, Graham's interest in wider business personal and management skills had grown - and in order to satisfy it he moved into the consultancy arena.

 

During his years as a consultant he has worked with a variety of major companies in the U.K. , Europe, USA , the Middle East and Russia in Sales, People and Management Skills. He has worked with many different organisations conducting both training and consultancy assignments - ranging from professional groups to pharmaceutical, financial institutions to computer manufacturers and dealerships, leisure and hospitality industry to telecoms. He has worked with companies in different sectors: helping them to develop their sales strategy; identifying the most effective sales processes – and sales management control systems; training sales management to lead their teams and then designing and delivering the suitable sales training. This can range from fundamental skills, through consultative selling to key account management and negotiation skills.

 

He has also conducted "modelling" projects for companies where he identifies very specific attitudinal and behavioural aspects of the successful people in a particular field, e.g. sales or customer service. From this the company can improve their recruitment and selection process and also make their training really specific to match the skills of the top performers. This can prove highly cost effective.

 

Other projects included designing and developing a product sales training programme for roll-out to over 6,000 people in its initial phase for a major IT company; a national “Customer Excellence” programme for a retail bank and developing a sales strategy and the sales training for bank into a new segment which resulted in significant growth in revenues ahead of competition.

 

 

Qualifications

 

Graham is a Fellow of the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management , a Master Practitioner of NLP .

Apart from working with his own clients within Solutions he has also led courses for the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development , MCE (Management Centre Europe) and Middle East Management Centre. He writes for various magazines about business issues and also contributed to “NLP – Business Masterclass” by David Molden . He has also featured on the BBC Radio 4 business programme.
