 John Moore – Former Head of Marketing and Sales Sydney 2000 Olympic Games 

     Ever pondered these questions when you were first starting out in sales or marketing? “How do I even      figure out who to call?” “How do I get over my anxiety of making the first cold call?” “I reckon I have 15      seconds max to get his or her attention – what if I blow it?” Well, yes I did – and so does every young      executive starting out. But it remains one of the mysteries of business. Sam Hunter’s master class on       “First Contact” is probably the most sound investment any business owner or manager could ever make      in their up and coming talent. Simple as that!.

  Alex Teoh - Chief Executive Officer, Mint Wireless

No matter what profession or business that you are involved with; the ability to sell your idea, product and opportunity are all the difference between success and failure. If you believe that you have a fantastic, innovative product or business proposition; and you are finding it difficult to unlock its true value and potential; then I suggest that you speak to Sam Hunter and discover more about First Contact.
When I was first introduced to Sam, we immediately had a great rapport with each other, and one thing I noticed was his pure energy, drive and determination. He always delivered what he said he would do for me, and he helped introduce significant opportunities to the business, more than I ever expected. It was an excellent lesson of selling smart, as opposed to spending to sell. I would definitely recommend Sam Hunter and First Contact without hesitation for those who are finding it difficult to break through. Sam’s intuition and understanding of what the buyer wants and needs are key drivers to his success. His collaborative and open approach to teaching and sharing his highly effective network will be invaluable for any person or organisation that needs a hand to make first contact!  

Glen Barkhan - Chief Executive Officer, BevWizz

On behalf of the BevWizz Group Executive Sales Management Team we would like to thank you for sharing so many valuable and “hard earned” practical experiences. We found First Contact to be extremely useful with a good combination of theory and most importantly “real” hands on issues that can be put into immediate action. You’re direct, open and to the point approach is very difficult to find in today’s sales and business development education market which is often filled with too much theory and not enough real life situations on how to make the first contact work.
