Janet is patient and understanding and gave us sales skills that we could instantly put to use in our business. Even the possibility of making sales calls doesn't seem quite so daunting these days. If you are someone who loves their business but hates (or fears) the sales bit then her "sales for the terrified" is definitely the course for you and worth every penny. More...

Janet has a huge wealth of knowledge, tools and tips for people who "don't do sales". Of course, if you have a small business, you don't have a choice but to do sales and this is where Janet's help is invaluable.
The 2 day sales training course helped me to figure out where I could improve in the selling process, allowing me to convert more enquiries into paying customers. Thanks Tadpole Training :)

Currently working with Janet on the 7 Steps to Sales magic course. It's a fantastic course with lots of elements to help you to both understand and take care of your business. It's labelled as a Sales course but it's much more. Janet takes the time to get to know you and your business and make all of the content and conversations relevant to you and your business. This is not a one shoe fits all approach. I think deep down Janet enjoys the challenge and getting to know you and help you. I can highly recommend it. More...

I have been to one of Janets training mornings and bought the book. I've even read it!! The thing I learned from janet is that i'm under selling myself and have rethought. I have already decided to make sure that friends are not cheaper and charge the correct price now. Also going to change my media prices. Love Janet and what she says. BUY THE BOOK!!!

Janet has created a fantastic sales course that I have spent the last two days attending. Her delivery is excellent; she is friendly, understanding and supportive;
the course content was relevant, interesting, easy to understand and full of practical tools that can be implemented immediately.
Janet has the ability to deliver the right amount of info in the right amount of time; I didn't get bored or lose concentration and the interactive element of the course helps to keep you engaged throughout.
I would highly recommend working with Janet and I will absolutely be attending future courses that she runs. Thanks Janet!

I've attended several training sessions run by Janet Efere of Tadpole Training, ranging from business coaching and advice, to sales techniques for small businesses, and a hands-on workshop on using a commercial CRM system.
In each case, Janet is professional in her approach, covering key areas, highlighting important aspects, and answering questions in a thorough and helpful way.
Handouts are provided as an aide memoire, and practical exercises are employed to help clients put in to practice what they have learned.
As Janet is a prize-winning sales trainer (Start Up Business of the Year 2015; finalist in Sales Trainer of the Year for the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management's national awards 2016) and a published author ("Small Business Sales Dilemmas: 50 real life case studies to help you sell more") you know you are getting advice from someone who has practical experience, and is a recognised expert in the field. If you run a small business, and you are uncertain about how to present the products and services you offer to prospective clients, Janet can advise and guide you about focusing on customer needs so that you are able to identify and meet customer requirements. Highly recommended.

Janet is tremendously energetic and just being around her makes you feel more confident and then she deploys her skills. Effective sales be them in person, by phone or via Linkedin require behavioural shifts and a high degree of empathy. If what you're doing isn't producing the result you want YOU must adjust.My experience working for Yellow Pages in the 90's apparently hardened me and I lack Janet's passion, humour and engagement.These are the very skills required to impart her enormous catalogue of knowledge. I am rarely impressed by adults whereas I am continually reminded what luminescence radiates from Janet in all our interactions.I trained and coached well over 1000 sales people and managers in my previous life. Janet is a rare gem and if what you want is business success, whatever the business - Call Tadpole :) More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love helping people sell more!
So many people have a fear (or at least a nervousness) about selling, believing it is about forcing your opinion on someone else. In fact, the opposite is true - great selling is actually about HELPING people. It's about working out what their problems or goals are and helping them solve their problems or achieve their goals. What could be better?
The bit that gives me the real kick is when you are with a client and they experience that 'lighbulb' moment, where they realise that they actually can do a thing, or that a problem they have been struggling with suddenly vanishes. That sort of thing is priceless and that's what makes me get out of bed in the morning!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was unemployable!
I worked with my husband for 17 years running a private college. That closed in 2012 when The Home Office took away licences from 500 private colleges because there were so many bogus colleges enrolling foreign students (not us by the way, but it was a political thing). I started to look for work and realised that I no longer fitted in corporate any more, so the obvious thing seemed to be to start out on my own.
I did 7 years with Xerox as well as 17 running the business development side of things at the college, so I knew I could sell. I had also taught for a big chunk of that 17 years so it seemed obvious - become a sales trainer.
Best decision I ever made.
Why should our clients choose you?
What makes me different from other sales trainers and business coaches is that I don't do fluff. Sales training must deliver results and that means money. It could be turnover, but I would prefer it to be profit! Here are some examples of what I have helped some of my clients achieve:
1. Barbara went from £5,000 revenue a month to £12,000 a month after dong 3 short courses with me over a period of 9 months.
2. Richard's company grew its turnover by 48% in six months (a difference of nearly half a million pounds) after strategic sales coaching
3. I did a survey at the end of 2017 and it showed that 75% of clients who worked with me had increased their turnover by at least 25% with a whole 50% saying that they had increased their turnover by more than 50%
Put simply, I don't use gimmicks, I don't use 'secret' systems, I just use simple proven techniques that I have learned in a lifetime of sales. I would invite you to have a chat if you want to find out more. If we are a fit for one another, great! If not, then I may be able to recommend someone else for you to work with.

LinkedIn Training
I provide short courses and one to one coaching sessions on how to use LinkedIn. There are two types:
1. LinkedIn Profile Writing - 3 hours where I do it all with you and you walk out with a lovely complete profile
2. Building your Business with LinkedIn - 3 hours where I show you how I use LInkedIn as a sales tool. All my biggest (and best) customers have come from LinkedIn - it is a super sales tool if you know what to do!
One to One Sales Coaching
If you need dedicated support and an overhaul of your sales and marketing strategy, then one to one coaching might be for you.
Call for a no-obligation, confidential chat about what you are trying to achieve and I will give you an overview of the various options. There are coaching packages for all budgets.
