“It has been a pleasure working with UAC. It was quite insightful, I learned several techniques that are very helpful on managing the customers pipeline for great results.
Originally I saw the training as one of the benefits of being part of the BookKeeping Express franchise, but quite soon the value of the coaching became evident… During the coaching sessions I could see my confidence growing to speak to everyone about BookKeeping Express, it’s value to their business… At this point, I believe that we have a solid repeatable and scalable process to fill-in the pipeline and follow-through and I have the confidence to present myself and BookKeeping Express into any networking of sales situation…
Thank you for the support and the patience, keeping me accountable for the progress is definitively one the greatest benefits that I see from the program to jump start my business.
