Call Mo on 0844 251 0529 for a relaxed chat to find out what’s involved and discover how easily you can overcome your own barriers to increasing revenue. What people say about Mo Harford: “Mo worked with me on a one to one basis. Mo was very intuitive in assessing my needs and which techniques would improve my approach to 'sales' despite the indirect nature of my business. The 'brain friendly' learning approach worked well for me and I would recommend it to anyone who feels that limiting beliefs are holding them back from reaching their true potential.” “Mo's sales training provided me with a depth and insight that I was not expecting from a relatively brief session. She quickly assessed my current strengths and weaknesses, and tailored the training to my needs. Skills, ideas and techniques that Momentum Training taught me have been invaluable in developing my business profitability and I have no hesitation in recommending Mo Harford, and Momentum Training.” “Mo has a very gentle and intuitive way of coaching. I felt very supported and safe when working with her. Mo has helped me work through some limiting beliefs and is very encouraging. I would recommend her to anyone.” “Mo is really good at what she does. She trained my lawyers and made selling seem obvious and easy, and trust me, that is not easy in the legal profession. We're all energised and equipped with skills we never thought we would have. I cannot recommend her highly enough, particularly to the professional services sector.” ” had the pleasure of attending a workshop lead by Mo. Not only was it fun, and interactive it was incredibly informative. Without exception everyone who attended has taken something away with them, that will only be of benefit to them in the future. Big big thanks Mo, and keep up the good work.” Marcus Malin “if you think education is expensive consider the cost of ignorance !” ...Unknown Author

EXCHANGE OF LEATHERGOODS AND ACCESSORIES Local Surrey firm, Easton Design Studio is launching a unique new department in their Cranleigh shop on 4th June, where customers can trade-in their unwanted handbags for a lovely shiny new one! Easton Design Studio Shop in Cranleigh Launching on 4th June, Exchange @ Easton Design Studio is a fantastic new department in the Cranleigh based retail shop, where customers can trade-in quality handbags in part-exchange and treat themselves to a brand new one from the Easton Collection. A trade-in price is given for the existing handbag, against the value of the new bag they wish to purchase - just like trading in a car. And just like a car, the trade-in value given depends on the condition and mileage the handbag has had! Exchange @ Easton Design Studio will also offer shoppers the chance to bring along other quality accessories, like shoes, belts and scarves, to be sold on an agency basis. This great new concept gives accessory-lovers the chance to earn money from the fashion items they no longer use, often gathering dust at the back of a wardrobe or buried under many more handbags and shoes. This option is more fun andmuch less hassle than selling through an online auction website - no pictures to take, listings to write or postage to sort out - they simply pop along to the shop to drop off their items.
