Small changes — big sales gains consultancy
The growth of your business ultimately depends on your clients’ and prospects’ decisions. Will they buy or not? Will they keep working with you or not?
Neuroscience teaches us that ALL decisions are made subconsciously. And unless you know how to speak to people’s subconscious, you are losing sales. Sales you didn’t even dream you could make easily and ethically.
Our consultancy helps you speak directly to your customers’ subconscious decision making mechanisms, every step of the customer journey. Both online and in person. From the moment they see your shop or website, through every interaction with your staff, products and services, until they pay and leave your shop or website.
Small changes can produce big sales gains when you know how to make them work. Among many other successes, these principles have increased a California company’s sales of its high-end product by 520%.They have also helped a London real estate agency close 16% more contracts.
- The consultancy will be delivered by one of a handful of certified ethical influence professionals in the world.
- From our library of 400 techniques, we will handpick the 10-30 that will work best for you.
- You will grow your sales using the same principles as Amazon, Apple and Google.

Sales Executrive, Gartner
“I had 20 years of sales experience before Ákos started coaching me. When I applied his teachings, prospects started to lean in more. I could sell more effectively and help them.”
Marcello Martins
COO, Apex-Brasil
“A 90-minute session with Ákos showed us why our presentation narrative and sales slide deck for the Dubai Expo left money on the table and how to improve it into an effective, persuasive presentation.”
Presentation skills training
If your team needs presentation skills to persuade, sell, drive decisions, we’ve got you covered. Some of our clients have even climbed the Mount Everest of persuasive presenting — they have turned decisions already made against them into their favour.
Why is our proprietary presentation skills training so effective?
Because, as neuroscience has shown, the subconscious mind makes ALL decisions. The conscious only justifies them about 7 seconds later. And you will learn the presentation skills to speak to people’s subconscious decision making mechanisms.
Since teams and industries differ, we tailor the training to your needs and help your team integrate the new skill into their daily work so you won’t waste the training investment.
- Gartner, Trelleborg Medical Solutions and Apex-Brasil say prospects “lean in more”, "are more engaged” and “are more open to buying.”
- Learn from an international speaker who is also one of the few certified ethical influence professionals.

High-stakes presentation consultancy
Do you have an important presentation, keynote or pitch coming up? Does money, reputation, opportunity depend on it?
Most speakers unknowingly waste such chances. Why? Because they try to persuade by speaking to their audience’s conscious mind. Neuroscience, however, has shown that all decisions are first made subconsciously and are a few seconds later justified consciously. And this applies to big business decisions too.
In other words, if your presentation does not speak to people’s subconscious minds, you are talking to the false decision maker.
Our consultancy will construct a presentation narrative for you and add subconscious persuasion nuggets to it, so that it speaks to the real decision maker.
- Multiple decisions made against our clients have been turned into their favour with the presentations we developed for them.
- Consultancy delivered by one of the handful of certified ethical influence coaches who is also an international keynote speaker.
