‘Sue is simply the best writer on business and sales issues that I’ve ever come across. That reflects her highly organised thinking about business growth strategies, ethics and sales issues, and her drive towards solving real-world problems. She’s also a delight to work with.’ David Walker, Principal, Shorewalker DMS. Sue Barrett is one of the leading voices commenting on sales and sustainable business practices today. Her ability to distill complex ideas and relate them to life’s everyday challenges and opportunities has readers leaving with a stronger understanding of “self” and how they can begin to achieve excellence through purposeful action. Working as a Sales & Business Growth Strategist, Writer, Publisher, Speaker, Trainer, Coach, Change Agent and Selling Better Activist, Sue has published over 700 sales articles in the mainstream press, written 21 e-books on sales, got selling its first ever university qualification and produces the ‘must read’ Barrett Annual 12 Sales Trends Report first published in 2010. Sue and her team also published the whitepaper: History of Sales Methodologies – why some work and others don’t in 2018 Sue is regarded by many mainstream business press publishers and editors as one of the most authoritative thought leaders reporting and commenting on the selling profession, ethical and sustainable business practices, business growth strategies and sales operations in Australia and the world today, with her articles featuring in Top Sales World and weekly in Smart Company since 2007. “To Whom it may concern, I first approached Sue Barrett to write for SmartCompany when it launched three years ago (in late 2006). I approached her for several reasons. Firstly she had a unique approach to selling. She looked beyond the quick sell to explain to people how to build sustainable and profitable relationships. Secondly she was a great presenter. Many sales people on the circuit turn people off with a very pushy, gimmicky approach and Sue presents as highly intelligent, caring, ethical and extremely positive. Sue, week after week, serves up terrific, intelligent copy that is thoughtful, insightful and extremely helpful for our readers. She is also very professional and adheres to deadlines. She is been part of the reason SmartCompany is so successful.” Amanda Gome, Former CEO | Private Media (www.smartcompany.com.au and www.crikey.com.au) now Publisher, BRW, SmartInvestor, Asset at Fairfax Media.
