“Facilitates To Achieve Clarity, Confidence And Certainty”
settings
“I have engaged Simon in a variety of State and Local Government consultancies for a period spanning more than 20 years. Every single time, Simon provided invaluable consultancy services on a range of diverse projects including business planning, service delivery, tender evaluation and, most recently, facilitating community engagement with a Sports Fans User Group to ensure Optus Stadium, Perth achieved its fans first aspiration and was recognised as a world class stadium. Simon has the unique ability to quickly grasp diverse issues, skillfully facilitates strong alignment around those issues and, consistently adds tremendous value to his clients. I would highly recommend Simon to any one in business wanting to achieve clarity, confidence and certainty around complex issues.”

“Simple Models That Increased Conversions And Price”
settings
“Simon coached me through the process of how I needed to reposition my business so that It would appeal more to the corporate market and particularly the CEO’s of large companies. He also coached through the development of my strategy to get more of a corporate and government client base and really got me to focus on what I was trying to achieve. Specifically, Simon worked with me to improve my 90-minute presentation that leads into the sale for a three-day workshop. Before the changes I delivered the presentation with no sign ups, after the changes I closed 17% of the room. He also gave me a model proposal that I could use with corporate clients. One client only wanted to pay me just $800 to do some work with him but using Simon’s visual models based proposal I ended up signing him up for the same work for $3,000 and he also now wants to do the same thing with his sales team. Another client is happy with a $20,000 proposal and we are just working through the details – that is the single biggest sale I have made on a single proposal. As a result of working with Simon I put $100,000 worth of business in the pipeline for the following 3 months. I can see my strategy working and am excited about taking it forward.”

“Finds The Key Point OF Focus For Success”
settings
“I left my teaching and education management career to move into consulting, with a lot of experience and knowledge about what I could do, but not a lot of knowledge about how to be a consultant or how to get it started. In just one initial meeting, Simon was able to give me a clear insight into the consulting world and a clear idea of what I would need to do to really make it work – what he talked about was not what I expected and was certainly not what I would have known about myself. His initial challenge to define what my core value would be to the client really caused me to think through my market position which was of course what Simon was indicating was the first key to success – marketing! I believe that one bit of advice was worth at least $120,000 of consulting fees to me in the first 12 months and the principles he taught me, along with the models he showed me, have allowed that to increase each year as I continue to apply his strategies. Simon made a fundamental difference to my start as a consultant and really put me on the fast track to the success I have now. I am happy to say we still meet regularly and he never fails to deliver valuable advice and guidance about how to position my business more effectively in the market.”

“Truly Insightful Communicator, Coach And Trainer””
settings
“Simon Bowen assisted Austal to develop and implement Sales Excellence, an in-house program that developed and utilised Austal’s unique sales processes, techniques, experience and strategies to combines them into a self-assessment, mentoring and personal development tool for its global sales force. Simon’s extensive experience in the development and delivery of training, motivational and development programs across a wide variety of corporate cultures together with his insightful, engaging and humorous delivery were exactly what we needed to help us understand and document the best aspects of our existing sales methods and show us how these can be developed into a program that will enhance customer loyalty and will deliver better and repeatable sales outcomes. His use of visual tools and models to make the complex simple totally transformed our training delivery. We even sold a large car-carrying ferry during the training process simply through the application of some of the tools.”

“Finds The Critical Questions That We Didn’t Know To Ask Ourselves”
settings
“We have been working with Simon now for about two years. We first engaged with him at a critical time of growth for our business. A single a question from him triggered a strategic decision on our part that has proven totally critical in our growth path. We write more mortgages than any other brokers in WA and we are on a national expansion program, having enjoyed strong growth in multiple areas of focus. Every time Simon works with us he produces visual models that capture strategy, sales and business problems in such an obvious way that the solutions and the conversion conversations become completely obvious. Simon has been one of the keys to our success and indeed has had a big impact on how we take ourselves to market. Recently, he worked with our entire staff to teach and create visual models that ramp up our sales. I personally have a conversion rate well over 60% and the key component of my sales approach is the use of visual models. It’s rare for SME businesses to be able to tap into the depth of knowledge that Simon brings to the table and so willingly shares, every conversation you have with him will uncover strategic insights into your business that will separate you from the rest of your competitive market.”

“Makes The Complex Simple So You Understand It Fast”
settings
“Simon Bowen is like no other consultant or marketer I’ve met in the business world. He thinks differently which translates into out of the box solutions for you. I’ve seen him take to his feet in a room full of business owners struggling to find an answer to a shared problem… in a matter of minutes he can produce a diagram which not only gets to the heart of the problem but also gives valid and usually never thought about solutions. He has a way to make the complex simple so you understand it fast. In fact, any time spent with him is something of a blessing. Just recently we had a chat over the phone and he helped me identify my centre of clarity in terms of the types of clients I am best suited to work with. This is a game changer for me and I thank him. If you ever get the chance to work with him, even if it’s just for 10 minutes, grab it you’ll be intrigued and thrilled with the result.”

“Outstanding Facilitator/Influencer – Takes The Guess Work Out OF Change”
settings
“I worked with Simon Bowen from Rosscrae International on a project involving consolidation of control rooms on a large, remote mining and minerals processing site. Simon was engaged by our company to assist with the change management aspect of this project. The project was a significant one in terms of multi-million dollar expenditure and complexity, both technologically and culturally speaking. Simon’s ability to rapidly establish rapport with everyone he deals with at every level, as well as his exceptional communication skills were critical to the success of the project, which came in on time, under budget and delivering an exceptional result. This became the benchmark site for the company.”
