Dear Tammy,

Thanks again for participating in our National Monday Night Training Call! The information you provided our consultants on “Booking Now – Not Later” has received some great reviews and generated lots of discussion!

Unlike another trainer we’ve used where they spent too much time promoting their products and giving little real concrete information, you gave us real, usable methods and techniques that could be put into practice right away.

I really have enjoyed working with you and hope to enlist your services for future calls and events!

Sincerely,

Joe LoBue

Reference: Tammy Stanley

Motivational Speaker

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Tammy Stanley was invited to be a featured speaker at the Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon offsite sales meeting on August 18, 2005. I think her remarks were energizing, focused and well received.

She provided colorful stories around how the sales process can be more effective, which I believe will enhance our sales teams performance. Tammy made a significant contribution to the overall success of our retreat, and I would highly recommend her as a motivational speaker.

Sincerely,

Tammy Stanley: Leadership Trainer

Tammy's training was the best leader training that I have ever been a party to in eighteen years of business leadership.  Her ability to bring the group along with her, push them to truly work through the issues that were keeping them from growing further, and to witness the real work that the leaders were prepared to put in to reach where Tammy was taking them was impressive leadership in itself.

Tammy was invited to speak to our top field leaders who attended a three-day Gold Canyon training.  I invited Tammy to address the group on the first day to set the tone and expectations of the leadership training.  Tammy was then given the final day of the course.

The impact that Tammy's inspirational and action provoking training had cannot be overestimated.  our experienced leaders, who have been at the top of their Gold Canyon Company, left with insights and paradigm shifts that they began to implement immediately.

Ann Raulston

Gold Canyon Sales Director.

Tammy, You are amazing! Thank you sincerely for putting together an incredible package of valuable teachings on excellent sales practices. Although, I think I stole them from you since the profits in my business are incredibly disproportionate to the price I paid for the complete course. Please put me on your HOT LIST as new material comes available.A $10,000.00 sales seminar packed into a course for less than $199... Is that a deal? YES or YES? You Rock..

We started using Tammy’s techniques for leaving effective messages in February of 2011. Our group volume increased by 15% in March and we are on track for a similar increase in April as well! The training we have received has proven to be pure gold for our business!We HIGHLY recommend anyone who uses the phone as a tool for their business to get this information and start using it right away!

I love hearing Tammy,  She's real and authentic and takes the "pushy-ness" out of direct sales.

I enjoyed learning how important it is to build relationships with our customers and make them feel valued and understood.

Its how you treat people- the conversations.  Can't wait to make a differend :}.  Love YA !!

As a consultant with a very new company I have been a little nervous to try various techniques because of my lack of resources and small product kit. This workshop gave me a lot of examples and tips to try and to make me feel more comfortable approaching new customers who have never heard of me or my products, and to help grow my new business.

Value added! Tammy Stanley's Get Results Now! Workshop provided me with the why as well as the whot of bookings and recruiting success.The imporance of following up and developing our customers was one of the most valuable lessons learned.Thank you, Tammy, Just ask - you don't know until you ask.

After a day with Tammy, I couldn't wait to make thos (formerly dreaded) prospecting calls.Tammy uses common sense, humor and tried and true sales techniques that speak directly to the needs of my direct sales business.I can not wait to put her ideas to use and track my success.

Patricia Ness

Tammy Stanley is full of new information that I believe will bring my businss to the next level when I implement it.This is not another workshop with the same information I have heard over and over again.  I have been with The Pampered Chef seven years but I have learned a lot of new things today.Thank you.This was absolutely worth the money and time!

Jessica Baker
Independent Consultant
The Pampered Chef

The proof really is in the follow-up phone call! I really lack the customer service part of my business. I like how you put the senarios from the customers perspective. How important it is to just stay in touch with them because you never know when you'll catch them at a "need to know" moment.Making this business personal and learning more about the customer and the needs of the customer will make it simpler and less of a chore to make the customer care calls needed to make my gusiness grow.II am challenging myself to making 3 calls a day. I will be excited to share with you the results!

Barbara LaCoss

Not only did I have fun and truly enjoyed Tammy's personality, but the information I reccieved was absolutely amazing, real and extremely motivating.I feel like I now have the tools to pick up the phone and make my business grow.

I was hesitant to spend $97 on a workshop but I'm very excited I did! Not only is she a well spoken successful professional in direct sales, she gives you more than you pay for!

As a newer Silpada representative this seminar gave me enormous confidence to go out and build my business.Tammy's enthusiasm and energy has motivated me to another level. A VERY worthwhile investment.

Stephanie Cummins

"Tammy Stanley's Conference presentation, "Carpe Phonum" was so powerful. I heard woman after woman say the same thing - I thought she was talking about me. Tammy's skill at presenting comes out in her words, voice, body language, and of course her "props." She was as skillful as any major speaker I've ever seen."

"I really enjoyed your training seminar. I have zero sales training so I wasn't sure what to expect but I was more than satisfied with what I learned. I think for me the most important part was learning what I was doing wrong. You talked about mistakes that most new sales people make and I was making them. I was really excited to learn how to implement new techniques and strategies. I look forward to taking more of your training classes in the near future."

Nadine Ellerbrock

"30 years in the direct sales business, many years of training, seminars and books - NO ONE has ever made more sense or made me laugh with her enthusiasm, passion and directness. I love you, Tammy Stanley, for your commitment to excellence for my future!"

Laura Law

I have to say - as the Queen of Email and phone phobia, I was excited to get home and make calls!!I can't believe how much my attitude changed when I saw the value of follow up from "a customers' Point of view!I am successful doing business the way I do it but I can see my recruiting improving if I make calls to my guest immediately!!I am challenging myself and my team to get phone friendly! I really can't wait to make some calls :}.

I have never been to a workshop that gave me so much motivation and "tools" to use in my PC business.  Tammy Stanley is awesome, so much information in such a little time without feeling overwhelmed, all done with a lot of humor.  She is dynamite!

Carol Cloutier

"Tammy's 'Get Results Now!' workshop was FANTASTIC (just like all her other workshops and products)! She's got a unique approach that really 'gets results'! Her trainings are fun and information - rich. I always leave re-energized and anxious to get to work. I even look forward to getting on the phone! Thanks a milliion, Tammy! I'm looking forward to your new products!"

Cathy Leach

"This course has helped me feel like I can pick up the phone with confidence. I am ready to triy it ! I have no problems emailing customers, but that has not been effective - as Tammy has pointed out. The 4:30 am wake up alarm and the 2 hour drive has really been worth it!"

Helen Renna

"Some of the best information I have recieved so far! Can't wait to put it into action."

Robin Uhrig
Independent Representative
Silver Jewelry Company

"You usually have to sift through a lot of material to find a few ideas that you can actually take to your business and start using right away, not so with the material that Tammy has put together. This is real meat and potatoes training that tells you not only what you should do, but why you should do it. Knowing "why" makes it a lot easier to put action to the "what"!! I'm ready for my 2nd, 3rd and 4th helpings!!" 

Shelly F.

"Every person in sales needs hear what Tammy Stanely can do for you! Tammy is dynamic and easy to listen to, and she offers a softer, more effective approach to sales. In fact, after this tele-call, I could not wait to get on the phone to call every lead I have in my lead notebook! I've never felt this motivated before. I never had the proper phone skills but now I do! Tammy feels like EVERYONE'S best friend; who wouldn't want a best friend with skills like hers?"

Barbara Edwards

"I just finished listening to your teleseminar "The Secrets to Sky Rocketing Telephone Results," and I am so motivated to get on the phone and practice what I learned! I now realize the importance of a script, the "attention getting words and the "Magic Word." You have a way of presenting that made me realize how easy it is if you follow these steps. You have such a gift of making everyone feel important. This is some of the best training I've had."

Reading the book Carpe Phonum, I felt like you must have been in my head!! All those little things that negative voice says : you nailed it to a "T".  So I thought I'd start by being more aware of the "voice" and how I responded.  3 days after our workshop, I became engaged in conversation with a co-worker about my business.  As I walked away, I realized the voice in my head was telling me not to ask her if she wanted to be a host because I figured she was thinking "Oh, I hope she doesn't ask me to host!".  I decided to check out my "mind reading" the next day.  I directly told her what I had thought and what I'd thought she'd think.She said, "No, I really wasn't worried that you would ask me, I actually was thinking it might be fun to have a party!"This time I went on to ask her to be a host and got the date on the calendar right then for 2 weeks away!I guess I'm a lousy mind-reader because when I asked another co-worker 10 minutes later it turned out I hadn't read her mind correctly either and she's going hold a catalog show immediately and a cooking show this fall.Thanks so much for "reading" my little voice and challenging me with ways to overcome it!

"The money spent on this workshop has been one of the best investments of all of my network marketing businesses. I would recomment everyone take this or beg her to come and give this to your group. Worth the Time and Money!"

Jeannie Townsend

"I would highly recomment this workshop because it is a great insight into human behavior and how to use that information to not only turn "No's" into "yes's" but to use it on yourself to create better work habit that will make your business successful. I have been uncomfortable about being or feeling to pushy. She showed us a way to use honety and technics to get the same or better results."

Valerie Acosta

Thank you for making customer care calls seem so simple, yet so crucial in the success of our business! I am excite to make customer care so much more routine and duplicate this in training my team.It seems like a very simple change - to see HUGE results! :}

I signed up with Silpada two days ago and only have 3 parties booked.Now I feel so confident when making phone calls as to what I will say and how to say it.This was a smart investment and I don not regret it.  Thanks Tammy, for giving me the tools I need to get over myself and make those calls.You Rock Girlfriend!

"Thank you for your time and awesome information! I just got off the phone with my director and we could not stop talking about your call tonight!
I was on another tele-class last night, and I gotta tell you... It was painful! I thought my watch was broken! There was a lot of talking, but no feeling of accomplishment in the end! I liked the "intimacy" of our call this evening. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate on it. It was very "not painful"!
I loved all of your information, but the part that gave me my "purpose" for being on the call was when you said NOT to use the "I have this date and that date available..." approach to booking shows! I felt like my name was on the call when you said that! I have never been able to approach someone like that, and I'm glad to finally hear that there is an alternative approach, and WHAT that approach is!
I look forward to your next calls, and only wish that I didn't have to wait a month to hear more words of wisdom.
I never thought I'd get to the point where I'd be excited about making phone calls, but I think I am!"

 

Mary Calderon

"Well, Tammy, I must tell you that your class spoke volumes to me.

I got it! I walked out of that class and thought, 'Okay Jaymi, you can actually do exactly what Tammy talked about. You can apply those tools with your next host. It makes sense!'

I looked over your list of products and decided right then that I would invest in all of your CD's - the whole set. I knew it was the right choice.

I read your book from cover to cover on the plane ride home (I live in Washington state) and I kept elbowing my fellow Consultants on the flight trying to explain how fantastic this book was!

I felt like you were talking to directly to me as corny as that may sound.

Since I've been home I've listened to the CD's in the order you suggested (you were at your booth when I purchased the set) and I have immediately put the tools to work for me.

I'm listening to Powerful Prospecting right now and the light bulbs that are going off in my head could light up a whole room!

No wonder the way I've 'always done it' wasn't working! I've seen results already with more bookings on my calendar, and a much better understanding of how to talk and truly LISTEN to my prospects."


Jaymi Watters

"I've never met anyone as passionate about helping others succeed as Tammy Stanley. Her words will get into your head! Tammy helps you solve your reluctance to make calls for your business once and for all! It's worth every penny (and more!)"

 

Susie Nelson

"This is a very deceptive book. It looks thin and easy to read. On one level it is. But somehow Ms Stanley has cut right to the heart and soul of every salesman.
She speaks of that voice inside your head we all have. Inside these pages you will find the type of attitudes and beliefs needed to not only carry through but win the day.
I was surprised how long I took to read this book. It is clear, well written, but it makes you stop and think.
If you have to overcome obstacles in your day and life , this little book is one you need beside the phone or on your desktop." 

 

R. Nordman
Independent

"I drove home pretty jazzed about your presentation on many levels. All jazzed up with no place to go!
So I thought, I should stop by that place I've been meaning to, but then followed with, I should really be better prepared.
Thanks to you, I busted that trouble thought immediately. I did the opposite and went directly to that place, confidently introducing myself and presenting my service offering! It was awesome.
You have touched another one and added value for both me and my contact!"

 

Pam Schmitt
Independent

"Something incredible happened and I wanted to share my excitement with you.
Your guidance was instrumental in me making a call that I would have missed out big time, if I hadn't. I was responding to a customer inquiry by email, when I thought, 'What the heck am I doing?' I jumped up and grabbed the phone and called him.
We had a great conversation, and I was sure he was going to sign up in my network marketing organization.
However, it turned out that a friend of his had signed up with someone else. He wasn't sure what to do, so he spent some time thinking it over.
He called back later on to tell me that he wanted to be on my team because he was so impressed with me. I have to tell you I am standing 10 feet tall right now.
I continue to listen to your CDs over and over.
Every day I have at least one AHA moment while listening. My value as a business person is something I am really beginning to understand. Consider me a life long friend.
I believe things happen for a reason and I am grateful I found your website, ordered the CDs and spent that precious time on the phone with you."

 

Susanne Maguire

"Several times throughout the day, I just wanted to shout "THANK YOU FOR BEING REAL" from the back of the room! Thank you for acknowledging our fears and our real roadblocks and sharing the keys to unlock those fears and roadblocks."

Tammy puts you in the moment and makes it real. You can see yourself confidently sharing an opportunity with ALL of your customers.She not only gives you the verbiage you need but helps you understand why it will be effective and change your business.

THe Tammy Stanley workshop was very informative.  I had always had trouble getting on the pone to followup with my customers or ask them to book shows.After the workshop, I felt I had the tools to go get on the phone.  I look forward to making some calls and to doing recruiting interviews.  Tammy was also a lot of fun and her personal anecdotes really added to the workshop and made it fun.

Right after your training, I sat down and made 10 calls and got 8 people to commit to a date! 4 of them were girls who had been wish washy over the last 4 months. Thanks to you I'm ready to go again."

Sandi O'Neill

"I applied what I learned from your workshop, and for the first time I filled my July and August and turned in more sales, for those two months than I have in 14 years doing shows in the summer. Talk about getting results!!! Your workshop began a ‘new start’ for my business. Tammy, I have been with Pampered Chef for about 20 years and I’ve been to a lot of seminars and workshops, but I walked away from your workshop wanting more. I am getting the results by using the ‘real’ verbiage you taught. Your fresh, honest, and funny approach is refreshing to work with. Your short and to the point approach works. Last night alone – 5 calls, 5 bookings – and I’m getting results with potential recruits too!"

Roz Diederich
Independent Consultant
The Pampered Chef

"Tammy Stanley is in a whole different league from other Direct Selling experts.  I love how you get into the psychological reasons as to WHY our customers act a certain way, as well as WHY we consultants act a certain way.  You not only give the ‘Why's’ but also the ‘How To's’ to stop the madness and kick our business up to the next level or two.”
