Thank you so much for the training today. It was fab, so much fun and energy and completely on point as to what we were looking for. We will focus on those key critical actions and I’ll look forward to seeing the team working in a slightly different way, and hopefully start to see an upturn in the business. Especially now we are empowered to sell more space!

Working with Paje on several projects has injected a new enthusiasm for our team and view on our business. In these interesting economic times, we made the decision to invest in our sales team and asked Paje to assist us in assessing the best way to achieve this. Paje carefully audited our current operation and made recommendations for improvement, on what was already a solid platform, to take the team and our business to the next level. They worked meticulously and ensconced themselves in our business to make appropriate recommendations. We are continuing to work with Paje on implementation and see us reviewing this work with them on a continual basis. Their breadth of experience and personalities has enabled us to look at more efficient and nimble ways of getting new business and maximising our current client base.

Paje are experts in conference and events, build lasting relationships, motivational individuals & always focused on driving excellent results.

Mandy Jennings is a great sales and conference market ambassador with the ability to focus on what will make a difference to generate revenue both strategically and tactically.

I engaged Paje Consultancy to complete a 6-month project – From the outset the project brief and objectives were laid out with clarity and with absolute focus and determination the team at Paje delivered consistently. Assisting with a Big Events and Association Market strategy which is now implemented and giving proven results. Paje are a tenacious, focused, motivated, and determined workforce who work closely with your own team to get the very best from each project they are given to great success. Mandy Jennings and the team at Paje offer great expertise specifically the Meetings, Conference and Event industry and I would not hesitate to use their services again in the future and recommend to other suppliers.

Just to say once again, a huge thank you to you and Judy for delivering such a fantastic training session yesterday.

Each and every one of us, myself included, truly found it so useful and really made us all think about new ways to work / approach our clients and the enquiry, depending on where it’s at.

Your dual style of educating, whilst still complimenting our sales technique was greatly appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to other venues.

Professionalism, knowledge & expertise, mixed with a unique & infectious energy & enthusiasm.

Mandy from Paje did a marvellous job of not only analysing the commercial organisation but also putting recommendations together to improve and reorganise us in a very sales focused manner. I have no hesitation in recommending Paje due to their professionalism and more importantly the vast amount of experience they offer.

All the hard work is paying off following the Paje Enquiry Handling Training at Warwick Conferences – the Conference Park now has a rolling 3-month average score of 100% on BDRC!

I enlisted the support of Paje on two specific assignments. I am delighted with the results in both cases. Firstly, Mandy held the post of Interim Head of Sales for Mint Hotel during the period of recruitment for this newly created position. During this time, she was a key member of the management team involved with the successful opening of the Mint Hotel Tower of London. In addition, a significant part of the brief was to put in place the structure and processes in preparation for the arrival of the permanent incumbent. This was completed very successfully including handover to the appointee. As a result of the identification of priorities, a project was instigated around M&E office sales and conversion procedures. Mandy was instrumental in supporting the implementation of the BDRC benchmarking process, delivered training in support of this and implemented a detailed M&E SOP manual. This was scoped and delivered to great effect. I would not hesitate in recommending Paje work.

We used Paje for BDRC training and received an exceptional level of service and training that resulted in a noticeable increase in our revenue and conversion. We found Mandy and team to be vibrant, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable industry professionals with quality real life experiences and in depth understanding of hotel operations. This enabled them to instantly bond with the audience, resulting in the maximum impact of the training they provided.

‘We have engaged with Paje Consultancy on 2 occasions to support us in a number of areas including C&E sales representation, interim sales director support, recruitment and team management.

Within the time period of each project Paje consultants along with the support from the board and the SMT’s within Silverstone were able to make a dramatic difference,  offering a significant growth in agency awareness, enquiries and significantly improving the conversion rates. They supported with a team restructure, set up new procedures, made recommendations to help our presence in the MICE market and assisted with the recruitment and interviewing process for senior sales and Head of Sales positions.

Paje handed over a 60% increase in confirmed business from the same time the previous year to the new Head of Sales giving her 70% of the year’s target already confirmed and an extremely healthy pipeline enabling them to hit their full target in time for Formula1.

The Conference Agency telesales campaign generated a list of over 90 agencies interested in viewing the venue or having a sales manager present to them at their offices. Our Agency Sales Manager contacted them all and was able to cover 20 appointments and handover a further 30 scheduled agency presentations.

Eighteen months later when the previously appointed Head of Sales decided to progress her career further Judi Oliver was able to come in again as Interim Head of Sales to seamlessly  ‘hold the fort’ until we could recruit the right person.  She assisted with the recruitment of some new roles within the team as well as the new Head of Sales and was asked to stay on to help stabilise the team due to other changes within the business, also offering Marketing support whilst the new Head of Sales settled in to their new role.

With Paje support we have made massive leaps forward in our MICE business over the last 3 years and I would highly recommend them to any organisation looking for representation and support in conference and events. ‘
