On behalf of the Board, and organizers of our recent conference, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for speaking and convey our appreciation for your participation. You were talking to a group of people who have both experience and talent in using the phone and getting results, yet they were all frantically taking notes. This tells me a great deal. You possibly told our members nothing they did not already know yet they were taking notes! The content delivery of your message was excellent and most appropriate. You reminded us of so many ideas and techniques. A great wake up call!

Dean's personal history is fascinating, a simple but powerful story of the benefits of positive thought and committed action. He has a personality and presence that are compelling and a message that is presented in a fresh and fascinating form. In the two weeks since Dean's seminar, sales figures have been at record levels.

I left the session feeling hugely empowered and motivated. Deanos approach was realistic, honest and very absorbable. I had a good grounding in the tools he presented, however I found the delivery a lot more personable and therefore I was more receptive to his style.

Dean, a week has gone by since Just Water New Zealand held their annual company conference and what feedback! I wanted someone who could demonstrate the power of good sales and service through another industry, and boy do you hit the spot! All three sessions: sales, service and then combined were received well, I know that from the unprompted feedback I received from staff, words such as 'inspiring' have been used to describe their experience with you.

Michael Fann

CEO

Just Water New Zealand

They found his experience in sales inspiring, he was relatable, spoke from the heart with conviction, and his years of experience honing his skill set gave the team some invaluable tips that left them fizzing, eager to put into practice some of what Dean had shared.

I have received positive and favourable comments from not only the attendees but also their respective managers. Comments such as "10 out of 10. Very inspirational."..."The content goes beyond motivation."..."seminar covered a wide range of subjects but was delivered in a relaxed style."

Your simple handouts were full of back to basics, results-driven strategies. I look forward to introducing you to the Sales Managers in other parts of our group and trust you will be as successful there as you were at Just Water.

We were all impressed by the content of your presentation and the manner with which you led the discussion. The points you made were relevant and valid in our day-to-day work and all present would have benefitted greatly from the attendance. Congratulations on the session and thank you for the time you obviously spent in preparing for it.

All the numbers are in, incentives paid out and thanks to you, Dunedin achieved total budget for May. We set a very high target at 70 packages to bring in $21,000 and no one was more surprised that I to find that we achieved those exact numbers. Interestingly, 45% of this was new business.

Stella Nicholson

For us to have a 100% turn out was in itself a credit to your reputation. The feedback from some of our hard to please sales team was - that was fantastic, motivating, energizing, and real - something for everyone to relate to in a very human way and very KIWI! That made it possible for everyone to believe that they too could make a change in their lives.

Jane Meyer

Your seminar was awesome. My senior Sales Representatives, who have been successful in sales and marketing for 20 or so years, could not believe how much they gained from your presentation. Some of the above were not enthusiastic about attending yet another sales course. However on completion of your training they all felt they had actually learnt more than they had from any other sales course they had attended.

Nikki Taylor

This is a great asset to our business, as we are always striving to get ahead of any competition and have that 'wow' factor. Your seminar addressed things we already knew, but maybe had forgotten some of them along the way, and has reminded our staff that they are good at what they do for us on a daily basis.

The team here has been exceptionally positive about the investment of their time. I believe that is due to you, as presenter, delivering in such a vibrant and professional manner. The comments from the guys, “easy to listen to” – “valid to the sales industry” – “some excellent tips spoken in our language” are a credit to you and your programme.

The Fifeshire team were extremely enthusiastic about telephone sales even before it started. This was totally due to the excellent advice you provided regarding preparation, motivation and focus. On the actual sales day the commitment and dedication of the team was all a direct reflection of the guidelines you set for us. Furthermore, the variety of client packages, team incentives and bonus schedule you have provided will be enough to see us through monthly telephone sales for the next 12 months at least.

Kevin D Ihaia

Dean is an inspiring person. He has shown me some simple techniques that will help me to grow my business to another level. I would highly recommend that anyone who has the opportunity of listening to Dean to do so. Guarantee you will not regret it.

Stewart Andrews

Dean kept you motivated, very positive person to work with. I personally had a great time and enjoyed the entire day. Great high! Dean was very inspiring. His enthusiasm & ideas were very motivating and gave me the courage to tackle telesales, which I don't really like to do, with confidence, and it ensured a successful day.

You certainly have the Midas touch in relating to people and your common sense approach to how you operate was taken in well by our people. We have one of our sales people in particular who was so impressed by your session she has become our number one rep by a mile and she credits her move up in attitude and approach on things directly to your session so thanks a lot Dean. You have a fresh and honest approach which gives a reality check that keeps us aware of what can be achieved by a shift in thinking.

Sales should be fun, and when the whole team have attended a motivating session it reflects on attitudes – I guess bottom line is, we would use Momentum Training again – so thank you for sharing your life experiences and your tips. So, happy to invest in the future of the team and ultimately the company.

The back to basics training you provided to my team before we began our telesales was invaluable, more so I think because it came from someone who is an achiever in his own right in the sales arena. We note that you are consistently on TRN leader board and that gives you additional credence. I have tried to do telesales previously but never with the success that we had with your input.

Stella Nicholson

General Manager

Feedback from the staff has been excellent. Tips on organisation rang true, excellent delivery, very inspirational and energetic. You inspired us to sell more Ad, to always get the order, great ideas about telephone techniques, an effective business tool to see business and attitude in a new light.

Today Dean Harrison gave a two hour training seminar on sales and how to create your own luck. I could only describe this as essential to any sales team. We believe he covered every angle of how to make individuals create that little difference between average and absolutely great.

The telesales team found it very useful to talk to a telesales expert, and enjoyed the pointers you gave them on ways to increase their sales. Your pre-dinner talk to all the franchisees was great fun and very motivational. The idea that being positive is so essential towards attracting luck struck a very big note. Your experience with direct sales was most valuable. Well done, Deano, quite an accomplishment to keep so many groups not only entertained, but to inspire them to greater achievement!

South Island Medical Representatives Training Day - The Pacific Surgical team who shared the day also felt motivated and energised with lots of useful tips for a fresh approach to the challenges faced in the market place.

Your day in Palmerston North with our Sales Team was an enormous success. You lead-in training in telesales was motivational, inspirational, and results focussed which resulted in us writing 50 Christmas Hamper Packs in just four hours and generating $41,250 in additional revenue. Pretty exciting and positive stuff! Thank you. I wish I had a Dean Harrison in my Sales Team!

Dean is such a genuine person, my Sales Team could not help but feel compelled to listen and learn. It made us all realise how each sales industry is essentially the same and the principals apply to each and every one of us. Great Work Deano!

My own experience suggests that the most successful trainers and motivators are those who are actively involved in working what they teach. Not only does this give them credibility in the eyes of the trainees but it also gives them constant insights into selling which many dedicated trainers either do not have or have forgotten through lack of practice.

I was a bit worried about Telemarketing to start with but Deans enthusiasm was very catching. I personally had great results & enjoyed the entire day. Dean has a very positive attitude and a willingness to pass on his skills to others.

He talked in words that we could understand. He talked from experience. He has a different approach to others we have heard. He has a real passion for what he does. He spoke to us, not at us. He made me want to leave the room and get started!

Merrilyn Carson

Dean is an excellent communicator and has assisted my Sales Team not only to increase their Telephone Sales Revenue, but also some of the topics covered above have assisted other areas in our sales. ie. Commitment to focus, hard work, and belief. This has paid off handsomely for our group.

I believe that timing is everything and in this instance the timing couldn’t have been better – the guys are talking about Cosmic Emails, thinking about the “Yes” answer, 90 day cycles, more calls - more calls ! And generally a whole lot more upbeat. Chestnuts on every desk!
