"Will wowed 251 accountants at our conference, which is never an easy thing to do. If you want powerful, simple, practical and proven ideas Will has them by the bucketload. Simply brilliant" Steve Pipe, Chairman, AVN Accountants
What ambition and goals do you have for your career? What successes do you want and what achievements have you set your sights on? Doing the technical work youhave been trained for gets easier as you progress through the years. But today there’s more to the job than just giving advice or crunching numbers.
Networking is a fundamental skill you need to ensure your aspirations are achieved. When you’re not a good networker or do it with a heavy heart it will not stop you being successful but when you are an effective and confident networker you cannot fail to become successful.
If you’re in a practise, whether as a new trainee or a senior partner, it is now expected you will have some involvement with business development which primarily means networking. If you’re in industry or business, networking is just as important to ensure you are visible within your organisation and keep up to date with what is happening in your company, industry and area of expertise.
We have created a networking pipeline system to make it so simple for you to learn. Our extensive research over the past ten years shows 99% of people fear networking. Your 3 key fears are fear of rejection, fear of failure and fear of the unknown. We destroy those fears for you ensuring you attend every business event, both external and internal, in the right frame of mind.

"Your networking session really hit the nail on head.
One of the fears for the new Managers is the business development. We are career-driven personalities, we fear rejection, job failure and often take ourselves too seriously. Sometimes, we are high IQ with work-in progress on EQ. Talking to new people at events might be a science for some. Sadly, most of the time we are only able to talk work as we spend there 12 hours every day. Of course, there are exceptions and this doesn't apply to all consultants population."

We will help you gain referrals
You want referrals from bankers, solicitors and property professionals. We help you gain them. All we do is show you how to build strong relationships with these potential referrers of business to make your life so much easier in the long run.
We reveal what it takes to become successful in larger organisation and the quick route to the top.
You will be pleased to hear we strongly discourage selling in the traditional sense; in fact our seminars and workshops preach "don't ever try and sell, you don't like it, you won't be comfortable doing it and as a result you will be very clumsy at it."
We show you how to walk into that room knowing no-one but feeling totally in control. We give you the questions to ask to elicit opportunities and when you do we take you through a step-by-step process to follow up in a professional manner. You will feel secure persevering but no-one will ever accuse you of pestering.
