HYPNOTHERIPIST AIMS TO HELP BUSINESS MANAGERS RETRAIN THEIR BRAINS TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS
For the first time in Yorkshire, two inspiring business speakers have come together to present one truly unique and memorable business event that claims it’ll enable business people to “read the minds” of potential customers.
“MIND YOU OWN BUSINESS!” also aims to equip delegates with the power to “re-tune” their thinking in order to achieve outstanding business success.
But there’s no hypnotism, psychic powers or tricks involved. Renowned motivational speaker and clinical hypnotherapist Gary Blonder – the only hypnotherapist registered with Bradford Chamber of Commerce – will present: Banish the doubt that’s stopping you from succeeding!
- Are Negative Thoughts preventing you from achieving business success… and you’re not even aware of it?
- Practical and realistic ways to overcome negative thinking, doubts and worries that can prevent you from experiencing the business success you deserve.
- Liberate your thinking and so achieve only success for your business.
And straight after coffee break, award-winning marketing and business growth specialist Philip J Gwynne, will present a workshop on How to “read the minds” of customers so that you can get more people to buy more from you:
- Make the most of every encounter with a customer or someone you want to be a customer
- Understanding “buyer behaviour” – how and why people buy stuff – so that you can let them buy more stuff from you.

In case of emergency, get Naked!
R—– specialises in supplying fire alarms, CCTV, security equipment and similar health & safety and protection products. They’ve been around for 25 years and have a list of past customers as long as your arm. But they realised that most of their sales came from past relationships and word of mouth. Which is great – expect it meant they were almost entirely dependent on the goodwill of others for their income and business … and that sales enquiries and orders were being largely obtained reactively and by “good luck” rather than proactively and “on purpose”.
They asked The Naked Marketing Company to conduct a business review, which identified a number of action areas:
- The need to put into place a customer reconnection and retention programme
- Upgrading product /corporate literature and marketing materials
- Producing an on-line Newsletter
- Promoting the company through Publicity and Public Relations.
“Our first priority is to help design and develop a bespoke programme of customer reconnection follow ups, which can be integrated into the day-to-day sales support and operational activities of the business,” explains The Naked Marketing Company director, Philip J Gwynne. “This programme could be extended to include some pre-sales activities designed to attract and produce sales enquiries from people they’d like to become customers.”
Back to “school” for boffins
Question: What have 2 University professors, a doctor in social policy, a students’ union leader, a history don (specialist subject, Amy Johnson) and an expert in applied sports psychology got in common?
Answer: They were the delegates on an in-house media training workshop last week presented by Philip J Gwynne.
The workshop showed them how their knowledge and expertise could be turned into a “free ad” for their employer, a University in the north of England.
And how did they feel about their learning experience? Dr MK said: “Better than a previous course I have done – mainly because theory and practice were well integrated with lots of opportunity for practice and feedback”.
DC said: “Excellent programme which kept my interest and gave me all the basics I need to handle the media. Very enjoyable!”
If YOU would like to learn how to promote and grow your business for nothing (or next to nothing!) – and get valuable publicity and FREE ADVERTISING for your organisation - you can either join an open workshop for a mutual learning experience where you can meet, network and learn from fellow business professionals who’ve faced the same kind of challenges and issues in their businesses as you have in yours… or arrange a discreet in-house full day event tailored to the specific needs and aspirations of your business and your people.
