Profile
Simon Paul
There was a Young Man with a widget,
Who really was not able to shift it,
He rang Simon Paul,
Who put in a call,
And in no time at all, sold the widget.
With a history of senior roles and business development, Simon works with clients to support their growth through:
- increasing market penetration
- product or service development
- new product or service diversification
- new market identification and development
Simon's sales background includes selling holiday properties, top-end hi-fi and IT hardware and software. He has run and managed several businesses one of which was started from scratch and employed c100 people within six months.
Simon leverages his extensive knowledge of business and markets to provide clients with results that count. Whatever product/service/market combination you are working in, Simon will help you to climb through he ranks of your competitors. This is done through any combination of advice, coaching, training and mentoring; engagement through social networking and face-to-face networking; and, hands-on sales on your behalf.
Whilst not wishing to rule out any other sectors, as a part-time playwright, Simon has a particular affinity with the creative industries. There has been an incredible change (in the UK) whereby many theatres and film production companies that once relied on Arts Council funding have, during the recession, become much more commercial in outlook. Simon can help progress that transition to help organisations and groups become more so. In addition, Simon has the ability to support not-for-profit organisations in their fundraising activities.
With over twenty years experience as a business adviser, Simon has supported individuals wishing to start new enterprises through to board-level executives of multinationals. Simon's key focus today is on micro-businesses and SMEs. Smaller enterprises are the bedrock of the economy and have the greatest potential. Apart from business development, Simon is able to advise on a raft of other issues as well and therefore able to provide added value to clients in the process.
