motivational, really thought provoking in terms of beginning and ending the sales cycle"
I am very grateful...
"I am very grateful to Simon & Colbea team for the Smart Selling Workshop. Simon is GENIUS - he made things simple, very effective and insightful. I've learned so many things from it and from that - now I have developed new sales strategies in "how to reduce anxiety and boost
confidence"
Really good session!...
"Really good session! I really found the *Closing the Sale' section the most
beneficial. It was great to understand when sale will not happen and why it is not worth pursuing'

The course was well structured...
"Since doing the business course for women at Colbea earlier this year, they have been a continued support and resource. The course was well structured, well executed and very helpful. The teachers on the course, as well as the staff at the centre, have been generous with their guidance and advice and continue to be mentors for me in my business ventures. Thank you all. Success if built together!"

Very welcoming and pleasant staff,...
"We are leaving Colbea in Severalls North Colchester after 6 month due to relocation however the time we have spent in here has been a pleasure. Great space for the cost, very welcoming and pleasant staff, particularly Liz and Craig, parking never an issue, great 24hr access, clean premises, polite "tenants", great courses on offer at low cost.
As a new business it has delivered everything we wanted. I am sad to be moving on and if we were staying in Colchester I would be staying with Colbea."
Thanks to the team."
Mr Cook
Very valuable and practical advice...
"Had an appointment with James Cracknell today. He gave me some very valuable and practical advice on marketing my new businesses and made me think about things from a fresh perspective.
He also empowered me to keep focused on the things that I really need to do to promote my business and how to target the appropriate audience."
