David is a delight to work with – his briefs have always been crystal clear and faultless in strategy. However, his greatest asset is his understanding of how emotion underlies the sales process. This makes his contribution uniquely both effective and human.

David is a conscientious workhorse with an eye for detail, has the ability to drill down into figures to prove a concept works before attemting to sell it's benefits. A pleasure to work with and has the required skill set to work through tricky situations that ultimately acheive the end result required for success.

It was a pleasure working with David. The challenges David overcame at @@@@@ were significant and required good general management and an understanding of how to manage change within an organisation.
"Uni Direct is going from strength to strength. We now have University partners in 20 countries and are reaching students from across the globe. This has resulted in Uni Direct growing at a rate far beyond our initial projections. Undoubtedly, without the support, commercial insight and strategic oversight that David has brought to the business this would not have been possible. Many thanks David."

David is one of the most visionary MD's I have met, both visionary and attentive to detail. He was instrumental in driving a series of complex initiatives from start to end with determination and and gaining a strong return of investment for the customers involved.
Without hesitation I would recommend David for a leadership role where vision and execution are the key factors.
Prue Deane
Director
​
We asked if David to help us develop and launch a new product for us (a training course directed at SMEs, Professionals and Providers). From there, David put together a ‘face to face’ training programme for us which included: Managing Capacity, Value Stream Mapping and Channel Management. Following this, he helped us design the product (training course) including outputs and benefits for the various customer types.

David manages to motivate and guide even the most negative and diffucult people with relative ease.
A born leader with an enviable business acumen.
Rob Leigh-Bramwell
Co-Founder Bramwell Brown Clocks
David energised not just our export strategy but business as a whole. Through tangible steps and advise built on years of experience we were really pleased with the process and outcome.
Ray Gore
Programme Director Export Cornwall
​
David and I worked together on an export support project for small businesses in Cornwall for about six years. During that time I was impressed by his considerable general managerial and international business expertise, but also his ability to engage with and impress business leaders at all levels. He is a brilliant communicator with the ability to identify the core issues of a situation and able to put in place strategies to meet the business objectives of any organisation.
Michael Sommer
Owner BC International
David's natural people skills and intuitive leadership style earned him respect throughout the distribution network. His team-building skills are unmatched, and the camaraderie he helped build during his tenure exists to this day.
One year, a US distributor meeting in Atlanta, David suggested US Distributors begin sharing sales tactics to help each other overcome issues common to the US market. During the two-day distributors meeting, I observed even the most cynical distributor leaders embracing David's approach.
"David has been a fantastic mentor to me personally and NED for us over the past few years. Helping us as a small, hands on company with great ideas and ambitions to strategise and compartmentalise these ideas and ambitions in to a focused and realistic strategy as a company. What really helped us is David's experience, ability to listen, knowledge of marketplaces, business and his great ability to understand our business very quickly. David was able to help us sift through noise and to give us the confidence to follow the path we are on by guiding us. David offers an extremely personal approach and by really understanding us as a business, as a team and as individuals adds much more to his work that goes above and beyond. Thank you for everything to date David."
