What our clients are saying

Triumph logo

Jonathan and the Catalyst team brought a fresh and invigorating approach to the training of our Customer Service Teams. Working as we do in advanced Aircraft systems, at the leading edge of technology, it was refreshing to get exposure to “Best Practice” from other industries, presented in a very grounded and practical manner.  Jonathan’s input into our sales processes and in particular a major bid to a globally renowned airline significantly raised our profile and standing.”

 

Trent Baker – VP Business Development
Triumph Product Support

Triumph Group, USA

Developing and promoting our people is always a good investment. Our front-line people are the face of our company. Catalyst brought everyone together and challenged their language - the way they communicate with our customer, all the way to how to write email, is critical to building a long term and profitable business. Particularly front-line technicians who face technical issues day-after-day, who might get frustrated, but since they're exposed to our customers we need to make sure they use proper language and don't let their frustrations determine the way they communicate.

Oliver Hoelzer

Liebherr Panama / Colombia

We needed a global sales and services development program. Tony comes with a deep knowledge of not only our products and processes, but decades of global, “World’s Best Practice” experience in complex machinery sales and services marketing. The success in having the same “Best Practice” messages transferred to both the global sales and global service organisation is tremendous. Tony’s ability to bring external ideas into our sales and services marketing, trade shows and other marketing activities has been invaluable.

 

Felix Stirnimann

President Global Services & Marketing

Müller Martini AG

Bringing Catalyst’s Sales and Service Programs to our entire local operation proved very valuable.  
The sessions focused on our specific sales and service business. Our teams came away with practical 
ideas to help improve customer engagement through our Customer Care organisation.  Catalyst 
challenged us on many things we do and have done over time, from investment proposals, to demonstrations 
and PR. Their value was a chance to have experienced, fresh eyes on our operation and by that to improve!
