Gareth had a one-to-one Better Networking coaching session.  Plus,  he attended the half day training workshop.

Being a regular networker and keen learner, I’m always looking to find new and better ways to build better business relationships with people.

Having got to know Tracy over the past few years, I knew that her networking training workshop would be full of great theory and practical tips. 

It definitely was that – with some brilliant interactive sections in there too. I took away a lot of valuable things to put into practice, which will make the investment one of the best that I’ve made in my business  development. After the one-to-one session, I had the most productive month I’d had in two years”.

This is a recommendation from Gina Cole for Tracy Heatley.

Gina, the MD of Goal Centred Development used Tracy’s Better Marketing services, so that she could launch a new product.

“Working with Tracy has really helped me take the practical actions I needed to support my heart led dream that I’d been procrastinating about for years. My ‘Goal Centred Transformation – 9 month Women’s Executive Coaching Programme.’

I’d been getting in my own way with next steps and I needed a metaphorical kick up the backside.  Marketing Mentoring sessions with Tracy have helped support my timeline management, focus around target audiences, streamlining the product and marketing mix required to get ready for launch and beyond.

I felt beautifully supported throughout and Tracy really held the space for me to be able to explore my challenges and beliefs. I genuinely felt that Tracy was cheerleading me along (and still is) as we developed this new product.

Tracy helped me develop what was originally a 5 year dreaming stage into a reality within a few months.

I am so grateful for the time we share together, the belief and commitment Tracy has in my business development.  Thank you!

That’s why I can’t recommend Tracy Heatley highly enough”

Recommendation From Gina Cole

Joanne Collins recommends the Better Networking On Demand Course.

I’ve just completed the Better Networking on demand course.

I learned how to become a ‘Networking Ninja‘ and loved it, because it was interactive and fun to do!

This online networking course, gives you an insight into your own communication style and skills.  It teaches you how to communicate effectively and successfully, so it helps with communications at all levels, not just networking.

I’m Joanne Collins, a Tropic Ambassador, and I highly recommend the Better Networking on demand course, because it’s a great analytical tool.  I think that all networkers and network marketers should have these sills.

I loved the fact that I could complete the course in short bursts too.

Like Tracy says, ‘Successful communication is the key to successful networking’.

Matt Gray, Social Media specialist, from the Bolton Arena, attended the Networking With Impact Training Workshop

I really enjoyed the workshop, because it gave me a greater insight into networking.  I’m inexperienced in networking, so discovering how to communicate effectively has been of great benefit to me.  Not just in my job, but in my personal everyday life too.

The communications training was mind blowing and I can see how I can incorporate what I’ve learned into our digital marketing content too.

I would also like to attend another more advanced workshop if Tracy does one in the future. This course far exceeded my expectations.

Thank you, Tracy!

Rachel Weinhold,  from GrowTraffic, recommends Tracy Heatley.

I attended Tracy’s Better Networking Training  session and it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening afternoon. The training session was very well planned out with appropriate supporting materials, so everything flowed.

The content was equally revealing and taught me a lot about myself and how I interact with those around me. The whole session was warm, friendly and encouraging, making it was enjoyable and fun.

All in all, it was an amazing training session.  I knew immediately that and I would be recommending that all my colleagues attend the next session.

My fellow directors, Simon Dalley and Hannah Weinhold have now completed Tracy’s Better Networking On Demand training course.  We then booked a group session, online, to help us maximise our internal communications.  Within days, we noticed a massive difference in our ability to communicate effectively and timely. Our decision making processes is much quicker.  Conflict and misunderstandings have reduced massively.

We understand each other more than ever before and wish we had done this years ago, because the positive impact is massive.

This is why I recommend Tracy Heatley’s  Better Networking training.

Outsourced Finance Director, Pam Duxbury, from PD Consulting, recommends Tracy’s Better Networking With Impact To Win Business workshop.

I thoroughly enjoyed Tracy’s workshop.  I have learned some fascinating things about myself and my business, as well as the people I work and network with.  It was absolutely brilliant! Really insightful on psychology and how to read people in order to communicate effectively.

I was very much looking forward to putting everything I had learned into action and seeing the success!  Within weeks I was getting more referrals than ever,  reaching out to the right customers and closing more business than I had for years.   The results were amazing!

Thank you, Tracy, I highly recommend your training workshop to any business owner!

I’ll never look at people in the same way again!  I found the workshop very productive and enlightening.  I can get really focused now!  I’d recommend this networking workshop to any business owner who wants to win more business through networking.

Martin Rawstron (Owner Of Prinny Mill Business Centre)

The Better Networking training has made me think about how I communicate with others, particularly about the types of words and phrases to use in order to gain the interest of a wider audience.  It was great to hear others experiences too.  I feel much more energised and confident.  Thank you for helping me focus on what I need to do going forward.  All small business owners should do this, as it really helps the business and with self development.  Thank you so much; it really has done me and my business the world of good!

Nichola Whitford (Managing Director Of By Nichola George)

It has been a great afternoon and I have learnt lots of new nuggets about how to get the best from my networking.  Well presented, enjoyable, fun, informative and educational! Highly recommended!

Lisa Mousley (Travel Agent and Owner Of Chic Boutique Travel)

After attending the Better Networking session, I found that learning about communication styles was very useful, as it will help me change the way I talk to people, at networking events and during business appointments.   I always struggled with doing a ’60 seconds’ at networking meetings and worried about what to say.  Not anymore! I found what Tracy refers to as the ‘networking segmentation’ extremely useful, as I can now do a different pitch for each of our services, making sure I’m using the right pitch for the right people.

Louise Campbell, Bolton Arena

I really enjoyed the networking training.  Tracy was able to have the whole group of strangers interacting, participating and really getting involved with the session. I got some great ideas and new approaches about promoting our business through networking.  I now have a thorough understanding of myself and how to communicate better.

Nettl Of Bury, Jason Groves, Recommends Tracy Heatley.

I attended the Better Networking – Networking With Impact To Win Business face-to-face half day workshop.

“The training workshop was brilliant!  Within a week, it’s given me more direction and confidence.  The rapport builder section was a great refresher for me.  I’d done some rapport building training before with Nettl Head Office.  However, some of the skills learned here were new to me.

Learning the subtle ways to break rapport was really useful.  Profiling my target market and building a customer avatar was very insightful. This will have a big  impact on my business.   This networking training has definitely  boosted my communication skills.  It has made me think of at least one particular target market to break into.  Plus, I now know how to reach my key target market, so I can get started immediately.

The workshop was well presented, insightful and good value for money”

I’ll definitely be sending my staff on future courses too.

It’s my job to understand people, and this further study of people and communication styles has really helped improve my level of understanding.  I can implement what I’ve learned anywhere and it will be very useful.  The biggest learning, for me, was understanding the reasons and motivations for some people’s behaviour, when they’re networking, and that it’s not negative, just different.  I enjoyed today so much that I may now go on to study to become and NLP Practitioner. Thank you!

Niel Copy (People Matters HR)

I thought that the opportunity to participate and interact, rather than just sit and listen to advice, was excellent.  I thoroughly enjoyed learning a bit about NLP and how this can advance my communication skills.   The linking of the NLP techniques along with breaking down my target market really helped me define my networking objectives.   I wouldn’t change a thing about the workshop.  It was first class! I loved it!

Barbara Sullivan (Business Development Manager For An Accountancy Firm)

I liked the relaxed environment and being part of a small group. Learning how to engage with different types of people has made a big difference to my confidence when networking.  This training has really helped me to improve my confidence and build more relationships.  It was brilliant and gave me a good snapshot of networking and how it can work for my business.

Terry Pollard (Plumbing & Heating Engineer)

I absolutely loved the rapport building section of the training and look forward to being able to establish rapport at future networking events.  I attend larger open networking type events, so this will be particularly useful, as I need to build rapport quickly.  I look forward to putting this into practice during networking and sales meetings.  The interaction was good and being able to practice the new skills made a big difference.  Writing things down is one thing, but taking part and putting things into action makes all the difference.

Silena Jackson (Architect)

Thank you for providing a non threatening environment to enhance my networking skills.   The workbook supplied was really useful and I enjoyed developing my ’60 second pitch’.  As a result of taking part in the networking training, I’ve already increased my confidence and realised how I need to change my approach when communicating with others.  An afternoon well spent, and I’ll happily attend any future training events.

Jannet Cotton – (Bryan Lee Building Contractors)

I loved learning the characteristics of types of people.   The biggest benefit for me was being able to create an effective elevator pitch and learning to quickly build rapport with people.  I will find this particularly useful when communicating with potential new customers.  From now on, I know I’ll be able to have more confident and effective conversations with people when I’m networking.  As someone who has only recently started networking, I found the workshop invaluable.  The only thing I’d change is making it even longer, because I was enjoying it so much!

Andrea Birtwistle – BBS (Marketing Professional)

The workshop really helped enhance my knowledge of people, and I know that I can implement these new sills anywhere.  Having a greater understanding of other people’s personality traits is such a positive thing.   I wouldn’t change a thing about the training.  All Good!

Ian Oliver (PSG)

I absolutely loved learning about personality types.  I want to present more appealingly when I’m networking, and I now feel that I can do this.  I will also be adapting the conversations that I have with customers to help gain more referrals from them, as well as with my business associates.  Although it was out of my comfort zone, I thought the role play segments were brilliant, because it helped to reinforce the messages even more.  I had a fabulous afternoon, thank you.

Lorraine Harrington (Physiotherapist)

Wow! I had a few ‘light bulb’ moments during the training and learnt a lot about myself and the people I work with. The greatest understanding, for me, was learning about why some people do and say the things they do and how to interpret their behaviour.  It was very insightful.  I’ve been networking for many years, but I know I will be communicating in a more positive way from now on.
