Decision Making

To be at the cutting edge of establishing and building sustainable customer relationships, it is important you are able to convey a sense of not only understanding the client’s perspective, but also a confidence and surety of what action is required. This comes down to your ability to assess the situation and act decisively. While some people have a natural aptitude to deal immediately with what can sometimes be complicated or challenging circumstances, the rest of us mere mortals have to learn how to cope in a way that still results in a positive outcome. We will work with you to build confidence and expertise which will make you a leader in relationship management.

Superior sales and sales training with energy

I met Angela Pile two years ago at series of seminars designed to support women in business generally and more specifically women entrepreneurs. Angela brought a wealth of experience and business acumen to this group and generously shared the lessons learned from exposure to the negative climates that accompanied owning a business during both the GFC and the Christchurch earthquakes.

Ang is a total survivor and displayed the resilience so necessary when times get tough. Her superior sales and sales training abilities are augmented by her energy levels and her communication and people skills. I subsequently got to know both Ang and her husband Gary and regard them as good friends.

I’m keenly anticipating whatever business Ang chooses to immerse herself in and am confident that it will become a market success.

FiSH Workshop

Angela facilitated part of a series of workshops I was running and brought a creative and personable element to the party – it almost became a party! The participants remained engaged and achieved the desired outcome to be enthusiastic about their work environment and to know how they could contribute to improving workplace culture. Angela made me feel at ease and confident she had the interests of the participants at heart.

I have worked with Angela over the last six months in her capacity as a company trainer. What I really like is Angela’s huge amount of energy and utter belief in what she does. She gets the best out of people with her presentation skills and my staff enjoyed the fun aspect built into the training.

I would fully recommend Angela to any future clients.

Best in the Business

I have known Angela for a great many years and have worked with Angela at Estee Lauder Companies when she was the Sales Manager. Angela then branched out into training professionals in Corporate Business. Having attended one of her training seminars I can honestly state that she is one of the best in the business. I came away from her seminar feeling extremely motivated, having learned a great deal about customer relations, selling techniques, what motivates people to purchase and much more. I have liaised with Angela many times over the years becoming aware of how very professional and organized she is, plus her energy level is to be envied. I look forward to working with Angela in some capacity in the future.

Injected Enthusiasm

I have known Angela for nearly 2 years, and I have no hesitation recommending her to you. While working with my team I found her to be highly organised & a quick learner. She took a somewhat mundane task, made it her own, injected enthusiasm, (for lack of a better word) rolled her sleves up, and completed the set tasks. Her results and analysis of these was quick and accurate. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Angela again!
Thanks Craig Teviotdale

A Mentor and A Leader

Angela Pile is a mentor, and a leader. The sort of person who can converse with, and inspire each of the four main personality types. She knows sales, and she knows how to talk to a sales team. I know, because I was part of her sales team. Angela is a listener…creator…and problem solver. She also know’s when its time to have fun, and when it’s time for business, which I believe, is imperative to the success mindset of any individual at work. She has this knack of finding what lights you up, engaging that spark…and leaving you with “ahha” moments. I’ll listen to Angela speak anytime, anywhere…and you should too.
