“An outstanding business book which I have wasted no time introducing to my new company. It has become essential reading for the team. In my previous role my company sold services to a diverse range of corporate clients and has been doing so for over 100 years, The Jelly effect changed the way we communicated with our clients. The simplicity of the message coupled with the accessibility of the writing means that there is something in it for everyone.”
Charles Garfit, Director of Asset Management, Santander
“I have read over 80 books on sales techniques and processes, attended many seminars and training courses, but nothing has had an impact on my actual performance in the way The Jelly Effect has. After reading this book my sales pitch conversion rates increased from 1 in 5 to 4 out of 5, and these were multi million pound contracts that I was pitching for against bigger companies with much larger marketing budgets. The book is also the reason I have had to take on 8 staff in the last 12 months to cope with all of the work that I have won. “
Marc Ingram, Global Sales and Marketing Director, The Orbis Group
“The Jelly Effect has the potential to be so impactful; I purchased a copy for everyone in my team! As you read the book, much of the content may seem to be stating the obvious, but interestingly, no matter how obvious it seems, few people use the techniques described routinely. This book has helped transform the way I and my team prepare to engage with each other and with our customers. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to make a more significant & positive impact on those they interact with.”
Alan Kidd, Regional Business Director, GlaxoSmithKline UK Ltd
“Andy Bounds has a totally unique and inspiring way of communicating. He also has this tremendous ability to help others achieve more when they communicate. Every single person he’s worked with at npower has found his guidance to be immensely valuable, and to have made a real difference. My advice: read this book – it will help you communicate with, and relate to, people better than ever before”
Heidi Walton, People Development Manager, npower
“This has become a great confidence builder for the team and an essential reference point to ensure each presentation achieves its objectives for the presenter and also the receiver”.
John Deacon, Learning Manager, Royal Bank of Scotland
“The Jelly Effect should be mandatory reading for all salespeople and business leaders. It is an outstanding contribution that simply and practically explains what it takes to become more effective in many aspects of commercial life.”
John Allbrook, Former CEO GoIndustry DoveBid plc
“Andy Bounds is truly exceptional. I had the honour of judging him at the British Excellence in Sales and Marketing Awards. Needless to say, Andy won the award, Sales Trainer of the Year, and was in a class of his own. He clearly demonstrated why he is widely regarded as one of the best sales experts in Europe. My signed copy of Andy's book "The Jelly Effect" takes pride of place in my business library and it is an essential read for anyone who is serious about getting world-class results in sales.”
Rob Popham, Sales Director, Certus Sales Ltd.
“The Jelly Effect is packed-full of really useful and practical tips. Interestingly, as I read the book, I found myself nodding in agreement time and again as Andy’s ideas resonated with those of my own - but I could never have expressed them as clearly, effectively and effortlessly as he does! The simple (yet highly effective!) strategies are not only invaluable, but totally relevant for anyone wishing to be an effective communicator - particularly when faced with making client or proposal presentations and trying to win business.”
Laurence Smith, Presentation Skills Program Manager, KPMG
“There is nothing like stating the obvious but to know and not do, is to not know. That's how the hundreds of delegates have felt when they start using Andy's communication techniques. Yes, I made them do it but they all came out smiling; like the 15 Account Directors who generated £10 million in additional sales in four months; 60% of a global talent programme, who went on to successfully negotiate promotion; the MD who reduced his presentations from 60 to 6 slides; the warehouse manager who reduced his email box from 3,000 to 30; all these and many more to come.”
Debbie Harrison, Learning, Leadership and Talent Development Specialist.
“Andy Bounds taught me more about effective presenting than a lady who’d previously taught two US Presidents.”
Marketing Legend, Drayton Bird
