- Donald Cameron7/19/2023We’re a SaaS business and needed to boost our website visibility and generate more quality inbound sales leads. Within weeks of implementing what we learned we could see more relevant traffic coming to the site and then we started to get leads from qualified prospects sales starting to come in – not many at the start, but the number has slowly climbed and continues to do so every month. We’ve completely bought into the whole process now.read moreread lessT Young6/25/2023As a busy SME, we've used Klozers for Sales and Marketing support for 4 years. They have a substantial depth and breadth of sales training expertise and are always a friendly face to turn to when we need input on topics like sales process, consultative selling and lead generation. I can recommend them wholeheartedly.read moreread lessStuart Laing5/29/2023I come from a technical background and had no experience of lead generation or websites whatsoever, but within 4 weeks we could already see results. The training is easy to follow because it uses real life examples that you can double check on Google so we knew for sure that it would work in our business. If you’re looking for a bunch of theory this isn’t for you – it’s hands on and very practical and as a team here we all love it.read moreread lessDavid Schattner5/29/2023I can't recommend Iain highly enough! He is very experienced and knowledgable, and the efforts he went to to support me in my sales practice was invaluable. I have been a much better all round sales professional since I started putting his training into practice. He is also one of the nicest blokes going round. Thanks for everything Iain, I will definitely stay in touch.read moreread less
- Sakti Violy Kumar4/29/2023I just completed Klozer’s Sales and Marketing Training with Iain Swanston, and I must say it was an enlightening experience! Iain has a gift for dissecting complex concepts into digestible, easy-to-understand lessons. His focus on SEO, keyword research, and content creation has helped me better understand the importance of targeting my ideal client persona and maintaining topical authority in my niche. The practical tips on optimising websites for Google EAT (Expertise, Authority, Trust) and leveraging backlinks from high-authority domains were particularly educational. These are strategies that I can apply to my content building process. I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn from such a knowledgeable and engaging instructor. Thank you, Iain, for sharing your expertise and helping us excel in our business.read moreread lessConner Smith8/17/2022i bought a sales fundamental course from klozers and was mentored by ian swanson he provided an excellent course. at the star i was overwhelmed with the amount of information i was provided and by the end of the course i had the understanding of the industry clarity in what i had to do and direction for my business to work towards ian has a unique way of teaching and works to your pace he went miles past my expectations and done so much more than was required after the course was finished he still advises me today on situation i need to address and how to address them it was a pleasure to meet ian and be educated my him i would defiantly recommend klozers to learn from will be doing another course soon thank guysread moreread less
- Tracy Buchan5/27/2022I worked with Iain over the course of six months to improve my sales 'closing' technique. We went through everything from the initial contact through to signing the contracts; we focused on the quote documentation and de-mystified it beyond belief! Iain was great at pointing out the things I was doing well and the things I needed to work on- I am pleased to say I'm now a definite closer. With the additional tools Iain gave me I've honed my skills and (almost) perfected my pitch. I would highly recommend Iain and when I need more guidance I will return for his service and words.read moreread lessAmanda Jukes5/23/2022A fantastic learning experience.Kolzers (Iain) has supported our sales team for several months, not just during the original presentation. This gave me the opportunity to take away several learning ideas and implement them, with numerous opportunities to go back to Iain and discuss my victories and wins in more detail, whilst supporting me in turning losses into success and delivering measurable results. This made the course personal to me and my individual needs.Using the skills that Iain has demonstrated I have completely re-vamped my approach to clients with positive results already evidenced.Iain is very knowledgeable and approachable and will no doubt be a life long friend.Thank you! Amanda (Spirit BDM)read moreread lessUrban YogaLab4/29/2022I am the founder of Urban Yoga Lab and I took the Consultative Selling Skills & B2B Lead Generation course. The course was really amazing - it helped me to learn so many things I had no idea before. From SEO to sales strategies and from best webinars practices to adopting a consultative approach in sales, Klozers realy taught me everything. Their sales coach was amazing, giving me fantastic advice, and helping me recognize what makes our brand really unique. Big thanks to him and their entire team! If you have any second thoughts to buy their programme I gurantee you wont regret it. They are THE BEST!read moreread lessRick Campbell3/16/2022We have been working with Klozers since 2020 as they help us develop a sales strategy for our TeamFolio employee skills inventory software. We have been blown away by the breadth of knowledge and depth of experience that Iain and the team have been able to share with us. The coaching on effective approaches for strategic sales solutions has also been delivered in such an accessible way for a predominantly technical team here at FidraSoft. We have a great foundation to build our sales strategy on now. What really surprised us is how much more fun it has been than we first expected!read moreread less

- DANIEL LEVER8/18/2021From my initial enquiry, Klozers were exceptionally responsive and helpful.They listened and understood our SaaS and sales development needs clearly and worked with us to develop a comprehensive learning programme which is now starting to deliver excellent results for our business already.Throughout the programme, Klozers continued to provide added value and develop new ideas with us.I cannot recommend them highly enough and would be pleased to work with them again.read moreread lessLena T7/18/2021I have been working with Klozers for preparing a sales presentation for Suma Rührtechnik, a manufacturing company in Germany. I was working together with Ian, a very professional and helpful person.

Thanks to Ian, my presentation had been truly a success and I gained confidence in selling and promoting our products.I would work with him again anytime!read moreread less
- Leanne Howie5/25/2019I attended a seminar with Iain from Klozers recently and found it to be very interesting and informative. Iain was engaging and showed genuine interest in each of the businesses represented in the room. He tailored parts of his presentation to suit each individual in their own area and stage of startup. Definitely a worthwhile seminar and I would highly recommend attending.read moreread less
- Kube Net5/25/2018Recently completed the sales and marketing academy with Iain, this was a fantastic course and the amount of content and information provided over the 4 days was fantastic. 100% recommend to anyone looking to grow their sales and marketing knowledge.Ryan WilsonKubeNetread moreread lessNik Hood5/25/2018Klozers are great! All the sales 'Training' I have had up to meeting Iain Swanston at Klozers has been just that - 'Training'. What Iain and Klozers offer that is transferable from class-room to board-room is to develop an understanding of the business I work in and apply proven techniques that will work but need adapting. I now refer to this as Sales Coaching, which for me is very different to training. Iain is a great Coach and I learn from every session we have together. He is also on hand by phone or email to bounce ideas around and make sure I am on the right track! Thanks Iain!read moreread less
- LSO Admin (fwd to development@lettingweb.com)5/25/2016Klozers helped our business achieve great results. Their due care and attention to focus not only on the sales process and execution but to also consider and hence incorporate business and marketing strategy into the wider planning helped us to realise our potential as a team and as a business.Personally, Iain was able to coach me very well on what my focus should be as a business manager and I would highly recommend him and his team to other businesses.read moreread less
Elliott’s Story
I joined a Klozers online sales coaching programme to learn more about Consultative Selling, and how I could apply this when I sell to Enterprise organisations. The more skills and knowledge I have, the better prepared I can be on every outbound call I make.
Having a sales coach and someone to support me through the inevitable ups and downs of sales has really helped me improve my game, book more appointments and more deals.
My coach was really flexible and was happy to talk in between my scheduled coaching slots, especially when I had burning questions and needed support fast. The debriefing calls we had after my sales meetings not only helped me understand where I could improve, they also gave me the right words to say, in the right sequence and at the right time.
I would happily recommend Klozers online coaching – talk to them, you have nothing to lose.
Absolutely top notch! Can’t thank you enough for todays session, my head is absolutely buzzing with ideas.
I found the course which I attended that Iain ran to be very informative, insightful and well structured. It covered a huge amount of ground but in very digestible pieces which meant that after two days I felt that I was leaving with a considerably greater understanding of selling psychology and a notebook full of helpful techniques. Would highly recommend his sales training to anyone.
The recent Sales Masterclass was an excellent course from which I learned much more than I expected over two days. Iain has an excellent style of delivery, expertly mixing theoretical learning with real world examples in an environment which ensures everybody gains the maximum value from the course.
I would gladly recommend Iain & his team to anyone in the sales environment .I had the pleasure of attending one of Iain’s sales master classes, after which I found a whole new impetus & drive to take forward on the numerous meetings I have had since .His wealth of experience in sales tied in with his excellent method of teaching make for a very interesting and insightful experience.
Klozers are the Sat Nav for sales success.
Having worked with Iain for about 6 months now I feel qualified to describe his fresh & committed approach and his enthusiastic, challenging, direct & honest (yet diplomatic!) way of interacting with those he works with. Iain has a genuine desire for those he is training and mentoring to succeed and exceed their own expectations of what is possible and always leads by example.
Iain is an outstanding sales trainer and coach. He has played a crucial role in helping us develop a thoroughly professional and industry leading sales and customer service team. Having worked with us for two years, he has become our trusted advisor on all matters related to our sales strategy. His passion for what he does is infectious and I would highly recommend having a conversation with Iain to see if he could help your company’s sales performance.
Lynne’s Story
Going onto LinkedIn, I really look forward to reading blogs from Iain Swanson. One of the reasons is I still hold Iain in high regard with my own career since the Sales training he provided me and my colleagues 7 years ago.
This was my first ever sales training and genuinely still the most pertinent in my sales career.
I was ‘persuaded’ to become a Key Account Manager in the Water industry from my then CEO and Corporate Director having been a Key Marketing Manager (supporting the KAMs) for 5 years.
I had never considered Sales as a career move, having spent early years since graduation in marketing research to a breadth of marketing activities in a newly competitive, deregulated Water market.
I’d only attended a handful of customer meetings before Iain’s training sessions. Wow! Myself and a colleague, who had also just joined Sales from being a billing manager, kept glancing at each other in the sessions with nodding heads that we’d been making the same mistakes, that Iain explained were very common in sales people.
Iain also taught us how to take leads through the sales journey from lead to opportunity to closure, I still use these skills today, 7 years on and encourage my colleagues to do the same.
Personally my career in Sales has been very successful, having been head hunted to a larger Utility company, and becoming a successful challenger brand to a move to one of the big 5 energy organisations-
I believe my sales stats set me apart from the competition for the role.
Recognition includes internally being awarded sales person of the year when the English water market opened up in 2017,
Externally, as a team we won ‘Sales Squad of the year’ in Energy Live awards in Dec 2017 and within 9 months of my career in energy, I was promoted.
My earnings have more than doubled since Iain gave that pertinent training and his latest blogs have been shared internally between our sales and marketing teams as the advice rings true to what we are currently working on as a department
I can’t thank Iain (and my ex organisation, Business Stream) enough for developing us and I will continue to read Iain’s blogs to keep learning and continue improving.
Tremendous session yesterday. The most useful and interesting days training I’ve ever had. Love your style!
Iain has been helping to train members of my team who are both relatively new to sales and they have found this very useful and have come away from the training days inspired and much better informed/equipped. In addition, he has been extremely helpful in assisting me with the overall strategy for a certain part of the business often dropping in or phoning with a new thought he may have had. I can honestly say, attention to detail and vigour Iain provides goes way beyond the call of duty and I cannot recommend him and his company enough.
The Microsoft Sales Academy changed my entire outlook on selling. Since attending Iain’s class I’m selling more effectively and generating great new business. The approach requires constant reinforcement and Iain is always extremely helpful in offering guidance and ensures we understand the material. Iain is a fantastic trainer and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
I have just completed a two day course with Iain learning all about sales techniques and even more about myself. I have a successful business. I have been a “natural” sales person all my life. I assumed that it was something that you were either born with or not. Well guess what? This stuff can be learned, in a clear and structured way. Its not rocket science but it is a science. Importantly for me, even with years of experience, clear profits and a sales force under my belt, my own skills were significantly improved. I enjoyed all of it but the best bit was the “A ha!” moments when everything became clear and the way forward easy and bright. I think that Iain has a hunch that he is good but actually he is great. I am delighted to recommend him.
Iain has helped me; reduce my sales cycle, increase my selling time and set myself aside from the competition by approaching business that works against the tried/tested Features and Benefits system. Would highly recommend to experienced sales professionals who think they can’t improve any further – you can with Iain’s guidance! Brace yourself for some uncomfortable techniques that become instinctive but highly effective! His service may or may not be a good fit for your business, if it’s a no, at least you can still be friends. It’s just business.
Training isn’t just about stretching and growing, it’s about learning skills that make life easier, discovering shortcuts, hacks and ways to get ahead faster than we could on our own.
