“The feedback we received from members was overwhelmingly positive, making it one of the best sessions we had all year. ”
“Andy, thanks again for making our Balance HK event a huge success. The audience gave you their undivided attention and you could hear a pin drop when you were speaking. I have never witnessed that before, with a room of 170+ people! ”
“Andy worked with my business partner and me for a number of months as a referral and networking coach. Our business has demonstrably grown due to the new techniques and skills learned through working with Andy. ”
“Wherever I go, Andy is held in very high regard and I can personally endorse him as someone who is easy to do business with, professional and also great to work with. ”
“I found the session with Andy really interesting and helpful. It offered a different perspective to development sessions I have been to before and it made me really think about how I was positioning myself at work and what I needed to be doing differently. ”
“Not only my individual life has had a total makeover after I met Andy, as a result of my personal improvement, the networks that I lead are now making a much bigger impact in the society. I can never thank Andy enough and would highly recommend him any time without hesitation. ”
“In the pre-event correspondence, you were the most professional speaker we’ve ever had. By asking great questions as you did, it helped to make us more professional event organisers. ”
“Andy’s style suited our company values perfectly as it is very much based around letting people learn at their own pace and be part of the sessions instead of just being presented to. There was a mixture of experience, job roles, nationalities and seniority in the room and Andy ensured that everyone felt this training was directed at them, such is his way with words. ”
“As a direct result of Andy’s workshop, we are now implementing a “networking strategy” that is aligned to supporting our key business goal. Andy’s advice/insights have made me re-think all my customer interactions and even in the short term I am getting results. ”
“The process to gaining the right referrals does not happen overnight, but executing Andy’s strategy into your daily business routine will lead to referral success. ”

Are different divisions within your business supporting and looking for opportunities for each other?
Are you someone who is simply looking to develop their career with the help of existing connections?
In the current economic climate, many companies have tight budgets and need to assess how to improve their network, both online and off. Individuals looking to progress their careers or find a new job in a more restricted market need the help of their contacts more than ever.
This can be a daunting task for anyone and having the right tools at your finger tips, using your existing network, is invaluable. Raising your profile by relationship marketing will help you meet your revenue targets efficiently and quickly, all within budget.
Developing a strategic approach to your networking will help you tap into your full potential, work more effectively and open more doors. Whether is it generating more business from your network, feeling more comfortable working a room, getting your name more widely known or getting the introductions that make a difference, Andy can help you achieve these goals, producing real results and significantly changing you or your company’s prospects for the future.
Through a combination of event presentations and webinars, we worked with a sales team spread over seven countries, helping them to understand how to extend their networks within client organisations, generate more business through referral and to use LinkedIn effectively to do so.
We ran a one year programme with a business consultancy, enabling a selected team of consultants to build stronger relationships with their networks and generate more referrals in the process, tracking the success of their strategy along the way.
We have worked with a number of groups of long-term unemployed or recent redundancies to help them to understand how to find a job with the help of their networks
