Julian Parry
John is a highly focused and committed sales professional, utilizing his experience of solution sales along with a sound working knowledge of the legal profession Having worked as finance provider to Johns clients for 10 yrs I have seen John to support and guide his clients to great effect and to fully support their changing business needs. Johns forte is to not only sell the solution but to also provide a meaningful business case giving clients the confidence to invest and for their business to benefit from increased profitability accordingly
Dennis Crowney
John was demanding and yet supportive with a real willingness to 'get his hands dirty' with all aspects of the work required. His competitive streak was always to the fore and all three of the team responded well to this so as to achieve great results in a difficult recession-hit market. And we had fun doing so, too!
