Even great businesses have frustrations. If you are an ambitious company, it’s likely that you face a raft of different sales-related challenges. It might be that you\\\'re worried about the number of new prospects being engaged, frustrated by lengthy unpredictable selling cycles, unhappy about inconsistent sales results across the team, or concerned your managers are not getting the best from their teams.

These things are surprisingly not all that unusual, but equally, they’re not true for everyone, but if any of them do resonate with you (or there’s someone in your network who you think they might sound familiar to), then maybe it would make sense for us to have an initial chat.

At Sandler we provide professional development, training, coaching and mentoring in a classroom setting, or one-to-one, or online to help you and your team members learn new techniques, build them into daily behaviours, and manage self-esteem to achieve an outlook of possibility.

We like working with ambitious business owners so they can become more effective and efficient, delivering on turnover and profit aspirations and managing consistently through well-established processes.

SecureB2B help SME businesses become "CyberSecure" & "CyberResilient" via Enterprise-grade cloud and subscription-based technology solutions - Delivered as a Service.

We also help SME's attain compliance to regulations an standards such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which comes into force on the 25th May 2018. If an SME processes personal data of any EU citizens (including staff), then that business will have to be GDPR compliant - or risk severe penalties.

Most SME's purely rely on anti-virus and firewalls as cyber-defences to protect their business assets. But what happens when a data-breach occurs? You need internal monitoring on a 24x7 basis to rapidly detect the breach and gather data to understand the nature of the breach, and how to recover from it ... fast! This is precisely what we do.

Through delivering "Security-as-a-Service (SECaaS) we eliminate the complexity and cost issues that often prevent an SME from acquiring such high-grade IT security technology to protect the entire business.
