Unsolicited testimonial received from a participant one year after taking on on-line class:

"I wanted to let you know that I really did enjoy your class. Initially I was resistant to the on-line program and honestly, I felt ‘I have enough to do’ and ‘I don’t have time for this.’ But you have a unique way of getting people involved and getting their attention,
so thank you."

Distance Training Participant

Another unsolicited testimonial:

"This is unlike most other seminars I attended which are just big "Happy Camps" and everyone resumes to previous behavior 5 minutes after leaving because nothing sticks. Although for me any seminar is worthwhile if I can come away with at least one idea to improve myself, I took several ideas from Paul’s presentations."

From a Management Teamwork workshop:

"Excellent job yesterday. You nailed most of the issues that Steve and I have seen and you said what needed to be said. Being a neutral party you were able to present these issues without pointing fingers or showing emotion. That is not an easy task."

After a Manager’s Training Workshop:

"I want to thank you for doing such a terrific job at our Sales training program last week. Your presentation was right on track with what I had in mind and it "dove-tailed" perfectly with the things I covered later in the meeting."

Vice-President Sales & Marketing,

"The
coaching they receive is one on one and tailored to the individual
so that they improve in the areas unique to their
individual
abilities.

"As a result, we have improved overall
sales performance by 20-30%… tripled
the salespeople exceeding quota…improved the performance
level of 40% of the
mid-range performers… and turned around 4 out of 6 of the
bottom performers."

Roger L. Lapp,

Vice President of Sales for SCAN Healthplan

"Best Practices is truly unique. It is not a “rah rah” seminar where reps go away hyped, then return to their old ways. Instead, they learn to think about what they are doing. They learn how to engage with customers by making a friend and developing relationships. They also focus on time and territory management."

Gordana Vukotich, SCAN sales supervisor

“ Paul helped our division president spark real change. Nearly a year later, despite tough economic times in the newspaper business, a culture shift is occurring in Add, Inc. that will help that company drive increased revenue for years into the future.”

Doug Kiel, President of Journal Communications,
Inc. in Milwaukee introduced The Pease Group into their Add, Inc. division.

“ The Pease program is successful because it focuses the sales people. It is success-oriented and task-oriented. It gets people thinking about what they are doing instead of just going through the motions. Paul relates to sales teams and their problems because he ran a challenging territory himself during challenging times — and succeeded.”

Peter Zafiro, President of Motion Concepts relates:

“ The Pease Group has contributed to our success because their training philosophy works perfectly with our business philosophy. Our Business Group has been consistent in improving profitable growth over the last four years because we focus on leading and improving people and behaviors instead of managing by numbers. We have hired The Pease Group several times over the past years to coach our people on success.”
