Julie Witts of CIMA West Midlands

"Just a short note to thank you for helping us organise our recent 'Networking' presentation event. Sue Tonks, who presented on 'How to be an effective networker' was an execellent speaker. Her talk was interactive, amusing but very informative and helpful with some excellent advice on how to improve your networking skills. Feedback from the event was excellent, including comments such as":

"The presenter, Sue Tonks, made the subject fun and interactive."

"Excellent presentation, by an excellent speaker. Fully engaged audience because of the quality of the presentation. Definitely the best CIMA event I have ever attended."

"Very good presentation done in an interactive way that gave me a lot of food for thought" 

Paul Giness of Expense Reduction Analysts

"So often presentations don't live up to expectations, sometimes ironically even on really interesting subjects. That can't be said for Will Kintish who energised, educated and entertained our group and made us all want to go out there, throw caution to the wind during the day at networking events, and burn the midnight oil on LinkedIn all evening. Thanks to Will for his session and for covering the wide range of topics requested by the team"

James Skeels, Marketing Manager of The PACE Partners LLP

"The Kintish networking training gave me enhanced confidence to not only be proactive in networking events, but to ensure that a planned follow up was made after meeting contacts of interest. The training is a worthy investment in time and money."

Lisa Lister, Director of Progress Marketing Ltd

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."

Klaus Bung of RTC Web Design

"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)!

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

Colin Fyfe of Clydesdale Bank

"It has been almost three years since you started running your seminar 'How to Host Successful and Profitable Events' for the bank, nationwide. You must have done well over 50 accross both Clydesdale and Yorkshire Bank by now. The seminars have made a huge difference to a large number of our managers. Confidence has improved in their networking ability, they have learned how to play the role of perfect business hosts and most importantly follow up leads much more efficiently after an event. I cannot recommend your services highly enough."

"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 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 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."

We clearly generated quite a buzz during the course of the day and the presentations that we had unquestionably stimulated the team and I hope that many of the ideas and practices that we discussed will be taken forward in the weeks and months ahead."

Elaine Hanzak of Virgin Vie

"I simply had to write to you to say that you have changed my life due to my attendance at your seminar "How to be an effective networker", held at The Heath on 3rd March 2006. As a newcomer to the business world I had previously attended several networking meetings but had felt shy and unsure of how and when to approach people...

Your presentation taught me to a whole range of invaluable techniques and skills which have now built my confidence and most importantly lead to severl exciting new contacts, even within the actual session itself"

Anne Hewitt of Wardell Armstrong

"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!"
