Bio
Rob H.
We engaged with Cameron Carnegie in November 2015 to provide formal business development/sales training for the Dynamic Edge sales team (5 staff). Mervyn delivered the day-long training session directly following a structured 32 point agenda. It's rare to find an organisation now that will deliver fundamental sales training of this type. The training covered the core elements that anyone working in a business development role should follow. Merv even followed up with every team member 2 weeks later to support them on their 90-day contact plan and answer any queries. Recommend, particularly for organisations that have identified a need to formalise their business development process.
Donald McNaught
I have worked with Mervyn on 2 projects and he has consistently delivered on both. Without doubt Mervyn's energy and 'can do' attitude combined with his disciplined and methodical approach makes things happen. Mervyn is also highly commercial and generally a really nice guy to work with!
Kevin Keith
I worked with Mervyn when I was at FW Accounting. He is a sales/results focused, driven and an impressive net worker/business developer. He sets goals at every opportunity and communicates these well to his Team. He is able to develop new markets and income through his vast contact network and is able to find win/win situations for his company and its clients. His integrity and work ethic are second to none and I would recommend him without hesitation.
