I’ve listened to and seen them all – the motivators, the sales gurus from Lee Iacocca, Victor Kiam, Denis Wailey, Alan Pease, Gary Glenn to Zig Ziglar. Perhaps this list dates me but sales and motivational trainer Lee Andrikopoulos jolted us out of our comfort zones and challenged us to rethink what we as photographers are really providing to our clients. The answer is not colour or back and white photographic paper mounted on card and perhaps framed. Lee will encourage you to take a hard look at your current sales practices. He is from our industry and works with photographers nationally and internationally.

It seems every where I go these days I meet people who have experienced the "Andrikopoulos make over" and all have stated they are happy with what you have been able to do for them. Congratulations on your success and thank you for the help you are providing for members of our industry.

"Thank you so much for your seminar day in our studio. The entire team at D&V have appreciated your input during the day and we are seeing immediate results. It was great to be able to design a program that was tailored for our studio targeting the weak areas of our sales journey. This has brought about improvements in our conversions from telephone enquiries to wedding appointments and also improved our sales closure at these new wedding appointments."

"Money fantastically well spent! We were all really happy with the training. It's been a week now since the power day, and everyone is still really enthusiastic about everything we learnt. It really helped us to clarify a lot of things in own heads, as well as put in place new procedures. . . . I'm sure we'll see a big difference with both these and our new skills working together."

"May I take this opportunity of thanking you for all the 'extra' effort you put into this training program. As you know I needed a disciplined approach to my selling presentations and through your expertise and training you were able to provide me with just that; a tailor-made sales presentation formula. I am feeling much more confident and ‘in control’ as I put this sales formula into action and I look forward to reaping the sales results as a consequence. Thank you Lee –You are the best!"
