Usually I am very critical of presenters, but I have just been to our breakfast forum and seen one of the best. Chris Helder is brilliant! Chris is young, vibrant, and passionate, has great content and is really into changing behaviours.

You clearly had a positive influence on each of my team members and they found your delivery to be one they could understand and relate too. We each came away from your sessions inspired, motivated and filled with a desire to action things in our own self to make both ourselves and our business as great as we want it to be.

Because it’s better than Positive Thinking.
Imagine your team having a useful belief about their approach to the customer experience?
This presentation is a game changer in the field of motivation and performance. For years, people have been told to try and be “positive”. The reality is that when most people try this they are unable to sustain it and end up feeling worse than when they started out.
This is a presentation about “action”. It is not about being “positive”, but rather asking questions of yourself such as, “What is the most useful thing to believe about this situation?” and “What is the most useful thing that I could do today to get me closer to where I want to be?” Positive thinking is about a feeling, while Useful Belief is all about “action”.
This presentation will help participants to:
- Alter the approach and be more effective when tackling tasks
- Give a new framework to help improve the focus of your time and energy
- Improve your approach to make practical decisions in the workplace
- Increase your results by taking the right action
- Feel empowered and motivated by changes they can make right away
This is the presentation that has made Chris one of the most popular presenters in Australia.
This powerful program makes an IMMEDIATE impact in the areas of communication and maximising the customer experience. Prepare for a HIGH ENERGY presentation that will leave participants with "tools" to PERSUADE and INFLUENCE. Chris has a fresh approach that concentrates on understanding those you are trying to influence, in order to create a stronger connection and ultimately results.
This presentation will help participants explore:
- The greatest communication, persuasion and influencing tools that are practical and can be implemented immediately
- Learn a list of "1%" behaviours that significantly improve your results and relationships
- Increase your persuasion skills to get clients to take action
Do you wonder why your customers promise to buy from you then don’t follow through? Are you at a loss as to why you & your client aren’t clicking? Or perhaps you’re ready to take your business to the next level. In this energetic presentation delegates will learn to decode the body language of those around them & use it to their full advantage. After all, 44% of communication is speech and the rest is body language:
Full of useful tools and packed with laughs, this keynote will:
- Teach the audience what is NOT being said. How often does a customer agree with you just to be nice? Participants will know the clues to look for!
- Delegates will learn everything from understanding the “thigh” to the “feet” and even the “shin grab”! A power packed presentation that drives results!
- Equip delegates with the ability to ‘unblock’ a difficult client & ensure their message is getting through!
There’s been a lot of talk about the different generations; but now for the first time, Chris Helder, in this razor sharp & high energy presentation, teaches audiences how to use these differences to their advantage & get those all important sales. There are so many scenarios in selling: You are face to face with a Gen Y, dressed smart and have a great product. So why aren’t you closing? You are starting out in your career & you’ve finally got in front of that all important Gen X client. Yet she is not responding well to anything you’re proposing – what’s the block? You are an experienced salesperson going to see a young decision maker. What do they want?
After this one-hour keynote, delegates will walk away armed with key takeaways:
- What Gen Y needs to do to sell to the Boomers and Gen X
- How to “unlock” the Gen X clients
- What the Boomers really want from a younger generation
- The importance of Gen Y in modern business & the change they are causing in the sales industry
- The skills to relate to someone of any age
- A tangible increase in sales results
Business is different in the new reality the way we operate and make sales has and continues to change. People and brands are embracing the digital age and using technology and social media more than ever. The digital age has created a virtual electronic wall behind which our clients can now hide. We all need to embrace the digital age that has provided our world with an unprecedented level of access to communication at the touch of a button. However face to face selling skills have not become redundant. If anything they've become more important than ever
- Chris will explore the classic "E" Ping Pong timeline and how to break down the "E" Wall
- Gives audiences specific tools designed to increase sales and shorten the sales cycle. You and your staff will learn modern tools and how to combine them with time-honoured techniques for sales professionals

Stop Selling
Traditional methods of selling based on 'going for the close' have now become outdated and even detrimental when long-term sales success often depends upon relationships, trust and tailored solutions for solving your customer's problems.

Street Smart
Would you rather be book smart or streetsmart? The perfect answer, of course, is both. However, people are now realising the need to possess the intangible qualities of the streetsmart person. Interestingly, people today need to know how to play the game.
Just like a great athlete develops their skills to read the bounce of the ball, so too can we become more conscious about what is happening all around us. Is streetsmart something that can be learned? Absolutely!
