Matthew Dashper-Hughes

Matthew spent 20+ years in the retail sector where (amongst other things) he led the private equity backed £63.5m management buy out of Bargain Booze in 2006, consulted for Costcutter in 2013 on a turnaround project, and was the Chief Operating Officer of Ryman Stationery, part of the Theo Paphitis Retail Group.

Matthew is now a professional and personal development specialist, working predominantly in Staffordshire and the North West of England.

He works with businesses and business people who have a growth mindset but, for whatever reason, they have a few frustrations.

For example, they may be annoyed that they're just not seeing enough potential new clients, worried that they aren't closing the potential clients that they do meet with, or just despondent because -when they do close a deal- they feel the need to give away discounts just to drag the thing across the line.

The effect? Unrealistic sales forecasts, a pipeline that drags on for eternity, and bottom line profit erosion... not to mention a similar erosion of the salesperson's self-esteem.
