I wanted to set up referral partners to help the growth of my business and the guidance, advice and coaching that Jacky gave was superb. She really knows her stuff and I spent a very productive 2 hours working on my business.

While the financial gains from the Referrals for Life programme speak for themselves, I’ve also formed a stronger connection with my business than I had before and now I am driven by the underlying values Jacky helped me to identify which means that I have a far better proposition for my clients.

The debate and discussion that took place in the Analysing Your Network workshop really gave me food for thought . I left with a clearer understanding of who should be in my network group and how we can work together to achieve the best outcome.

I was initially concerned about amount of time you need to dedicate to the full Referrals for Life, but the results have been more than worth it.  It transformed the way I present my business and which target markets I aim for. As a result I have had more referrals in the past 6 months than in the past 2 years.

I didn't really believe in coaching and then I had a conversation with Jacky. As a result of just one coaching session I landed a life changing contract worth £250,000.

There were certainly a few "light bulb" moments for me during the Referrals for Life course. As a result I am now much clearer on my target market, why I am in the business I am in, who my referral partners are and how to work in partnership with them to generate mutual business opportunities.

Time well spent on how to work in partnership to generate mutual business opportunities

Jacky’s courses help develop a keen understanding of how to have an impactful ‘elevator pitch’ as well as giving a fascinating insight into how to deal with different personality types through her Room Full of Referrals workshop. This was a great way of understanding how people wanted to be informed, and how to understand and empathise with their Weltanschauung. This is another great lightbulb moment from Jacky- the platinum rule, that being to treat people how they want to be treated.
