“Learning how to get past my fear, overcome customer objections and asking for the close were big ones for me! I am much more prepared and confident now! But I also really appreciated knowing how to identify opportunities and find new customers. It has made a huge impact on my business and on my income! I feel like I am much better equipped and much more self-assured in real-life situations after taking RAINMAKERS courses.”
Gillian Cafa
Sales Representative
"Using ‘trial close’ statements to easily close was something I had never done. Identifying the need with open-ended statements and learning how to sell better using the Colors was terrific! I will use those moving forward. Make and do ‘10% more’ to get 10x the results a great takeaway which I will implement right away! Such awesome information in your presentation!"
Allison McGee
Sales Representative
“Which means' to find the emotional need, 'I understand' to easily overcome objections, and ‘The steps of a sale’ were my 3 biggest takeaways.

Jackie creates an environment that allows someone to relate to their own life, be inspired by what is possible, and begin taking action towards something new. As an event organizer, it is a true gift to work with her and see the impact she has on an audience.

"I cannot believe I let time and money hold me back for so long!! I took Jackie's SELLING MADE SIMPLE and made the cost of the course back no time!! ...AND SO MUCH MORE!!!

Our sales increased by 20% after her training!”

"Jackie has remained a mentor of mine throughout my career. I have recently grown into a management and partnership position within my company where I’ve successfully adopted many of the managerial attributes I witnessed first hand working direct for her.

It is realistic and easy to incorporate, creating successful results because you come across as being genuine and bringing value to your customer."

"People spend a lot of time at work. If it is toxic, they bring that home which affects their family. Your course ‘Toxic Takedown’ fixes the problem at the source. This will translate into a better family life, which is invaluabe. I recommend your program to companies large and small."

"Having a cancer in your Organization” – great – powerful!!
I appreciated hearing Jackie speak about toxic work environments. She was engaging and the activities were both informative and fun!"

"Jackie came across as very sincere and wanting to help remove toxicity from the work environment.
A very strong and clear message."

"Jackie is passionate about making your workplace a productive place by removing toxic behaviours and using a great system that helps you understand how different personalities affect staff and the team. Highly recommend!!"

"Jackie knows her topic, and appears to be really experienced. Her Colours Profiling Assessment is well explained, and it works! I can clearly see how personality profiling improves productivity and bottom lines. I’m looking forward to the next 4 sessions. I highly recommend this course."

"Jackie did ‘True Colors® Team Building & Leadership’ with our Executive Team. She customized the content specifically for our needs and hit the nail on the head after I spoke with her about what we wanted to achieve! It was definitely worth the time spent on this course! The course was intuitive and rewarding, and helpful both personally and professionally.Jackie is amazing! And super fun too!"

"Understanding myself and others better combined with having the tools to improve my selling based on different personalities, using ‘I understand’ to quickly and easily overcome objections, and using ‘which means’ to really seal the deal in selling were my 3 big takeaways.
I think the biggest impact on my career was understanding the buying cycle. Learning to stay away from ‘price’ conversation until I have met the other steps in the buying cycle was really profound for me!
The 2 days spent with Jackie were well planned and focused on great sales training! The training was informative, interactive and fun!"
KELLY HOLYOAK
"Focusing on using the tools from ‘Colors’ to identify customer needs, and tailor my approach and the sales process to their ‘Color Profile’ was fabulous! Learning how to easily overcome objections and using ‘which means’ will build real ‘value’ as I move forward!
Using the ‘Color Profiling’ to improve my sales and my relationship combined with the above takeaways will have the biggest impact on my career and my life!
I thought the Training was GREAT!! I like that you reviewed things several times to ensure we understood and got it ‘into our brains’ was excellent! Loved the thorough explanations! It was easy to understand and retain! Thank you Jackie!"
ERIN MCGEACHY
"Overcoming Fear and Overcoming Objections were big ones for me! Being clear on how to differentiate ourselves and the Company, and creating a Value Proposition for myself and Hunter Douglas were things I really appreciated. Creating opportunities, looking and seeing the opportunities will have a big impact on my career moving forward. I will be much better prepared and am much more confident in asking for the close.
I really liked the interactive role play; overcoming objections, elevator speech and creating a picture for the client. I feel like I am much better prepared for those real-life situations after taking these courses."
GILLIAN CAFA

Margo Trofimenkoff
"I enjoyed learning more about how we can use ‘words to add higher impact and increase persuasion’ to our sales presentation, the numerous unique and different ideas for closing, and how you can ‘change your mindset to change your results’.
Color Profiling (and the tools for selling better with faster results), ‘which means’ (an easy way to meet the deeper emotional need) and how becoming a ‘Consultative’ Sales Person will have the biggest impact on my career!
The Seminars were a great time spent on self-evaluating, and understanding how the sales process can be done simpler, more smoothly and more professionally."
