It doesn't matter how good we think we are, at the end of the day it is what our clients think about the service that we provide and the valuable knowledge we share that is most important.
Below are testimonials from our clients which we hope will give you comfort when thinking about using our services.
At Kintish, we have learnt the importance of testimonials.
It does not matter how good we say we are, or how good we think we are - no one believes us when we say it!
However, if a satisifed client says it...then it must be true!
Below are just a small selection of client testimonials we have received.
Lisa Lister, Director of Progress Marketing Ltd
"Will presented at the PM Forum event that I organised (I am Regional Director for the Yorkshire region). The presentation "The Secret Skills of Great Networkers" was well attended by around 45 Professional Marketing individuals and feedback was extremely good. I would recommend Will and use him again."
Marie Dancer, Operational Director of Richard Nelson Solicitors
"The Nottinghamshire Young Solicitors Group and RICS Matrics (chartered surveyors) invited Will to present a seminar on networking to our members. There is pressure now throughout our professions at all ends of the spectrum to generate business for our firms and to attend networking events to promote our firms. This can be a daunting task for anyone, especially when faced with networking with older and more experienced members of our professions. However the strategies and tips given by Will were well received, resulting in much positive feedback from our members and I would have no hesitation in recommending Will."

Linda Hayward, Director, Tailored Office Solutions Ltd
"Kintish's course on networking is quite simply the best "non-legal" course for lawyers I have been on. I would recommend it to any professional services firm. The valuable techniques and substantive messages I took from it produced immediate results at events I was attending and hosting the following week."
Molly Harvey of MHA Training
"With the current challenges we face in business, the Kintish networking programme is a must. It's practical, interactive and will have lasting results on productivity and creativity within the business world."
Mark Bulmer of HSBC
"I just wanted to thank you again for delivering a brilliant presentation to us yesterday. The initial feedback from the team was very positive and I know this will help them deliver the business we need as we move into what looks like challenging times."
Philip Smee of Association of Independant Financial Advisors
Thank you very much for the place you gave me on your seminar yesterday. I learned a lot which I will be able to put to good use and enjoyed the day enormously.
It was such a pleasure to experience such an informative and well designed program and also to see the wonderful presentation techniques that you demonstrated.
I will particularly remember your use of eye contact coupled with participants names, your focused movement around the participants tables, the repetition of audience questions so that we could all hear them, and the stunningly effective audience participation exercise when you illustrated the six different groupings.
Husnara Begum, Editor of The Lawyer
After attending one of our public courses, Husnara was kind enough to write her own critique of Kintish in the lawyer. The art of networking article is available to read on the lawyer's website.

"They turned my life around, and once you have been Kintished you will feel the same. People will pick you out from a distance simply by the confident manner in which you wear your name badge on your lapel. You will no longer be lost for words during a networking event, you will confidently start and continue a conversation with strangers, and you will know how to follow up during the next few days."
Tim Johnson of 4Networking Ltd
"As a founder of 4Networking, I thought I knew quite a bit about networking, having done plenty for years, and been trained by the world's biggest. I attended Will's effective networking seminar with an open mind, and expecting to give it a polite pat on the back. Will Kintish and Sue Tonks blew my socks off! - Now I understand why we have structure in 4Networking, Will shows in great detail, with practical role play, how to deal with the 'school disco' scenario common to most open networking events.
But more than that Will goes through the whole process from preparation to follow up, dealing with practical issues, and mindset issues. The day flies by in no time at all, and the level of information and insight is simply tremendous.
I am delighted to recommend all 4Networkers to make time to spend a day with Will Kintish and his team, not only will you be able to cope with the 'school disco' but your own 4Networking will be more effective too. And I believe Will has some cracking offers for 4Networkers (you may even get in half price if you bend his arm and mention this testimonial)!
Finally if any of you trainers out there want to add networking training to your portfolio, then check out a Will Kintish franchise!"
We met Christeen from Olive Properties in Peterborough when Greenstones Chartered Certified Accountants ran a networking skills seminars for their clients and professional contacts. This is what Christeen said after being 'Kintished'!
Robert Allen of Allen Consultancy
"I really enjoyed your session in Doncaster last night, I found it really useful in that it reinforced some of the things we all know subconsciously, as we are all social animals to lesser or greater extents and more usefully it emphasised by illustration the most useful techniques in networking. Thanks again for making the evening so useful and at the same time enjoyable."
Andrew Shaw of Kingston Smith
"If Carlsberg made courses......!"
Bobby Davis of The Hyde Group
“Having been introduced to “the Kintish way” some years ago, I have always been eager for the opportunity to arise where I would be able to work with their team again. What better opportunity than Hyde’s commencing their journey to securing talented people at their inaugural “Hyde’s Got Talent” event? The short taster was definitely enough to “whet the appetite” of Hyde’s talent who were keen to learn and appreciate more about the importance of networking both in-house and externally. For some, the workshop was enough to give them that little bit of confidence to go and speak directly to the Group Chair, the Chief Executive or someone from another part of the business. And then be very proud of coming back and telling you that they had done it! Such willingness to network will make such a difference to Hyde’s learning style in sharing best practice, experience and skills. We look forward to working with Kintish again in the near future”
Colin Fyfe of Clydesdale Bank
Clydesdale Bank is one of our biggest clients and has worked with Kintish for many years. Please view here for the testimonial letter from Colin Fyfe, Regional Director, and see how we have helped staff at Clydesdale Bank.
Elaine Magnani of Ward Hadaway
'Sue Tonks trained our Partners and Associates in networking skills and also covered how to follow up effectively - an area that many courses do not cover, or do not cover effectively. Feedback form attendees was excellent - they found the course very informative and helpful but also enjoyable! Sue's style generated confidence and enthusiasm in the group and I am glad to say a number of those who attended are now networking regularly and no longer find it a daunting task.'
'Kintish have been very easy to work with, responsive and helpful and Sue's course was very well received. We look forward to working with them again.'
“You need to go to find out how bad you don’t yet know you are at networking!”
Tricia Chatterton - Regional Director of College of Law
“You can’t afford the time to go? You can’t afford not to!”
Mark Greenwood - Founder of Networking4business
“I have seen Will present more than half a dozen times and I can honestly say that I have never once been bored and always learn something new.”
Sue Coyle, Partner of Clydesdale Bank plc
I first experienced one of Will's workshops in Oct 2002, where he provided me with great , practical, easy to follow hints and tips for networking. I have used these since that time and now have no fear of any networking event that I attend. I consider that the methods that I learnt have stood me in very good stead, helped me win business which in turn resulted in my being suceessful in my roles since that time."
Will, hope that will help and thanks again for yesterday.
With kind regards
Sue
Jayne Stokes of Alliance and Leicester plc
Just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for the excellent programme you delivered to our Sales Managers in Manchester recently.
The event was a huge success resulting with us still receiving call requesting meetings with our sales guys even now! We have managed to turn contacta into sales even at this very early stage of the launch.
I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you for increasing the teams awareness of marketing. You will note from the assessment sheets that everyone without exception found it practical and very stimulating.
'An excellent introduction to the world of networking with business. A very worthwhile, entertaining and enjoyable afternoon. Sue Tonks’ energy is infectious!’
Stuart Brown of Friends Provident
Generally the feedback on the feedback, both on the forms and anedotally has been excellent so thank-you for putting on a good show
Bloomin marvellous - a triumph! If there's one course you must go on in your business life, this is the one. It confirms that you don't get a second chance to make a first impression!
The Kintish seminar was very useful and informative, I have picked up alot of valuable information and skills and i thank you for considering me for the course.
I can now say.... Ive been Kintished!
Naeema Choudhry - Partner of Human Resources Group, Eversheds LLP
Sue has the unique ability to make networking look incredibly easy and fun...the men had better watch out!
Helen Bennett of Business Network
Thanks for doing a brilliant job. Your passion and enthusiasm are a delight to behold. Can we do it again in the future?
J O'Connor of J O'Connor & Associates Ltd
Further to your course on public speaking. I would like to thank you for making the subject interesting and fulfilling.
I found your coaching skills to be excellent, and your method of critique to be extremely contructive.
I have had many unsolicited calls and much very positive feedback from my lending managers saying both how much they enjoyed the session and how relevant it was to their daily activities. As important has been the enthusiasm displayed by the attendees since the day, both in their efforts to ensure the follow up is effective and put into immediate effect.
I cannot recommend what you do highly enough and I would be delighted to endorse, not only your presentation skills, but knowledge and understanding of the subjuct.
The content and delivery of the seminar was first class. I enjoyed it, as well as learning very practical steps to improving communication skills and creating business opportunities.
Geraldine McEntegart, Director of Marketing of Merseyside Special Investment Fund
Sue Tonks is an engaging presenter who immediately established a great rapport with our clients. She made everyone laugh but, more importantly, our guests went away with added confidence and new networking skills that will go a long way in helping their business progress. Will of course is always incredible and the double act was extremely successful. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who wants to improve the effectiveness of their networking.
Nora Smith of NCH Fund Raising
I am writing to thank you on behalf of NCH Fundraising for your excellent presentation... You certainly got our event off to a flying start and feedback to date has been outstanding.
As a professional fundraiser who has to "Work the Room" on a frequent basis, I have found that Will's courses have given me the tools with which to do this effectively and professionally.
Simon McCrum - Marketing Partner of Pannone & Partners, Solicitors
After Kintish invited me to one of his networking seminars I was so impressed I put 200 lawyers through the course and the diference has been dramatic. We have 200 people all involved in new business. Even the shy lawyers are keen to come to events now.
Ed Manning of Poles Apart
I found the day not only both fun and informative but profitable because as a direct result I have transacted ... business and I would expect much more in the future from some of the contacts that I have made on the day.
On behalf of the organising commitee of Greater Manchester Area Mentor Conference, a very big 'thank-you' for your really wonderful keynote presentation
Many thanks for coming to our offices last Tuesday. The event itself was greatly received by all who attended and you were certainly the talk of the office the following day!
Mark Liversidge of Damar
I found the delivery of the course (From Cave Dweller to Hunter) both motivational and a big confidence booster for me and would recommend the course to not only to business people but anyone who wants to improve their interpersonal skillls.
