With an average deal size in excess of £100m, Ben cut his teeth in the big-ticket technology and outsourcing world where incredibly tight margins meant negotiating on price simply wasn’t an option. Remaining calm under pressure and present in the moment were essential to success.
Ben now works under his own brand–Peak Performance–and specialises in sales, mindset and mindfulness. He provides sellers with tools and strategies to not only ensure they remain focused and performing at their best during times of pressure but also to be happier and healthier both physically and emotionally.
