Fish N Chip Friday

Hello and I hope you are all enjoying these sunny days, as we head into the weekend I am happy to say I had a lovely Birthday on Monday, and I have defiantly ticked all of my To-Do lists this week, so it is a fish & chips reward.

On a sad but also positive note, a long standing contract came to an end this week, nothing to do with either side, it has just finished, but I received some lovely feedback, so in honour of my longest standing, and first ever client, I hope you do not mind me sharing some of the comments, and join me as I may raise a glass, but will defiantly be adding mussy peas to my Friday treat.

• Hi Kristian Thought I better email you straight away before I forget. I know I find feedback super help and like to get quotes from people who have attended my sessions. Here is my feedback from the course. I hope you use this.
• "I attended Kristian's training course called Negotiation and Business Building. Kristian's approachability and friendliness truly set the tone for an engaging and productive learning experience. What stood out most was Kristian's ability to provide practical, tangible advice that I can implement immediately. The sections where he explained how to interact with potential clients and secure sales were particularly impactful. Unlike other training sessions I've attended, which can often feel dry and theoretical, his approach was refreshingly authentic and relatable. Kristian's engaging style has significantly boosted my confidence in approaching clients and closing sales. “Thanks for today's session!

As my working year end draws near, it makes me thoughtful (and not just about all the food I plan on eating) I was made redundant Christmas 2018, after nearly 18 years, with the retail dip in 2019 I was unable to find a new training manager position, resulting in a full year unemployed which almost broke me mentally as well as financially.

I went self-employed February 2020 with a great start (well for a few weeks) then 5 months nothing with lockdown, but this time I would not let in beat me, and August 2020 I was able to re-launch my training business, and despite 2022 & 2023 almost worse for me financially thanks to the 15 or 15 interest rate increases and energy, and cost of living (like we have all had to cope with).

But I found a new determination, I like to say tenacity, some may say stubborn, but I did it, and one of my proudest achievements is my clients current and previous, with the knowledge I have helped other people in my situation (Redundant, Unemployed, Self-Employed)

I almost gave up a few times but something kept me going, so if you are having a bit of a rough time, Hang In There! Physically, Financially, Mentally, you never know what your future holds.

I wish you all a Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year

I wish all Monday morning emails were like this!

I am assisting a delegate with her self-employed option, and asked if there was anything else I could assist her with, as she is coming to the end of the provision.

"My honest answer is, I really don’t know. What I do know is that talking to you and the advice you have given me has certainly helped in my time of need and encouraged me to take the next steps in my life/career. Please continue to do what you do as you are a great asset to everyone who comes into contact with you.
I will let you know how I get on this week".

I like to start my Friday on a positive note, so receiving this testimonial on my LinkedIn profile has made my day & weekend, at a time I am now struggling to pay bills and basically survive, things like this gives me hope.

My LinkedIn has lots of very kind reviews from various trainings, which gives me the positivity to keep going and investigating new opportunities.

"I attended a 'Negotiation and Business Building' workshop that Kristian presented. It was a great experience overall and I came out of it feeling much more confident. The low down of the workshop was to understand the art of selling, to pinpoint the important key processes in sales and gain knowledge of sales techniques among other things.

I feel Kristian was really knowledgeable and spoke to us on a personal level. I particularly liked that he shared his own experiences in running a small business.

I wish you all the success Kristian, you deserve it"
