"SalesCorp have been working with Peter and his team for the past 2 years, referring Peter to our clients, and having Peter and his team give our sales people, vital sales training. In recommending Peter to our clients we take a risk, if he doesn’t deliver, it can reflect on us, but I have to say that in all cases, our clients have been thrilled with the results delivered by the Turtles Team. We recommend Peter to anyone who asks us about recruitment or sales training, they are simply the best."

"We at Domain Charter found Turtles all the Way Down – Peter Anderson, energetic, invigorating and entertaining with the sales consultant training provided by Turtles. The skills gained were exceptional for our industry, the method of training was particularly appropriate for our consultants, discovering how to particularly explore potential clients needs leading to successful outcomes for our organisation and more importantly successful outcomes for our clients.
The amount we invested in Turtles was minimal in relation to the benefits we as a sales organisation. I would highly recommend Turtles to any company or individual seeking to improve their performance. In the end it becomes our responsibility to implement the things we learned and the biggest mistake is to think we know it all.
I have been involved in the property investment industry for more than 12 years and had seen it all; however I came away with gems from Peter. The only thing I recommend is not to slip back into the old patterns and have the FTI disease – Failure to implement the new knowledge gained."

I first met Peter Anderson mi d 2010 when he performed a scoping exercise on my company. During this period he quickly identified the ‘good the bad and the ugly’ parts of the business process and presented a proposal that would rectify the ‘bad and ugly’ parts.
We worked with Peter for a period of time and had immediate positive results. By adopting and implementing his recommendations we experienced increased productivity in all areas of the business process. There was also a marked increase in the quality of the leads produced which resulted in more settled deals.
Peter proved to be an inspirational trainer and has always been available to give advice and help fine tune the process. I would recommend him and his company to any business or individual who wants to go from being ordinary to extraordinary!!

"Peter Anderson provided a sales training session to my technical team, who, by nature are "uncomfortable" with selling.
It was quite simply the best training session I have ever attended as Peter quickly gained an understanding of the background of the team and targeted his message in terms that they could both understand and apply in their daily work quickly and easily.
I have since had feedback from the majority of my team that it has changed the way they deal with their customers and lead to an improvement in their business.
I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Turtles all the way down to any organisation who wanted to improve their sales performance."

"This is just a note to thank you personally and TATWD for assisting my business in our strategic planning initiatives and sales training for 2011; including the placement of our CEO. I'm impressed in how efficient the service is and how much we've benefited.
Your personal business insight is refreshing, extremely candid and inspiring. I can't help to find solace in the notion that you know exactly what we want and when. You seem to know our business as much as I do; and the ability to translate that to third parties is respected.
I appreciate it when a consultant challenges the status quo and can guide us down new directions we never saw before. Your passion for what you do is evident in every call, meeting and email. I really feel like you are one of the team and that makes all the difference.
Here's to a long term; mutually beneficial business relationship!"

"Like many organizations we felt that we faced some specific challenges in our sales area that standard 'off the shelf' training would not really deliver.
After discussions with Peter, he designed some training specifically addressing the issues that related to us and our operating conditions. This tailor made training really did change the way that our sales people thought about certain things and as a result delivered significant improvements to our business.
It is the individualized training that Turtles delivered that really worked for us."
Greg Hibbins
Sales Manager
"I started my business 18 months ago and didn't have the slightest clue about the sales process. However being a one-man-band, I had to learn and learn quickly. With Peter's help (including his positive can-do attitude, witty disposition and his unwavering patience) the business has grown from just me working from a home office to now having a 'real' office with employees and a customer base of over 30.
Every few months, I have a refresher with Peter and he provides me with renewed inspiration and a new goal to attain and the tools to attain that goal. Peter's expertise, knowledge and simple to follow instructions have been invaluable. We will continue to use Peter to grow the business and it's team members and would have no hesitation in recommending Peter and Turtles All The Way Down."

"The team at Turtles All The Way Down have been an integral part of the growth of our telecommunications sales team. We believe that the time taken by Peter and his team to gain a full understanding of our business needs has been the proven element to recruit the types of people we require.
The ongoing post placement training ensures our salespeople have everything they need to achieve their goals; whilst the further security of the no quibble replacement guarantee provides our directors with additional confidence we have made the right choice in our recruitment partner.
Well done, Peter and his team operate a fantastic sales recruitment model for our B2B sales needs."

"As a group we utilise the phone as a sales tool on a daily basis and identified the need to provide some structure around this medium. Peter Anderson was referred to us by a mutual acquaintance and his presentation truly inspired our group. I am confident that everyone in the room will embrace his concepts which will impact positively on their business.
Peter’s passion and professionalism for his subject matter is contagious, I am confident that our group will see significant results immediately.
The group was so impressed that they demanded that we get Peter back to present to their franchisees at our next conference."
