October Talk with Jamie Martin from Correct Careers Coaching

It's October, the month of Halloween and the time when the clocks go back and we all get an extra hour in bed. How's the month looking for you and your business?

Today we're talking to Jamie Martin who is managing director and founder of Correct Careers Coaching which offers modern sales training and aales Strategy.

What’s coming up for your business in Q4?

Currently focusing on working with my retained SME B2B clients – I am enjoying getting to know the team and the operations of their business and providing training and strategy (sales and marketing) to improve their processes and sales revenue. 

This is a month for harvest and Halloween? Are either of these important for you in your business or organisation? 

Not specifically, but it was my birthday this month, so I had fun celebrating that with family and friends. 

October represents several awareness months, please say if any are relevant to you?

Breast cancer is a subject close to my heart – my Nan passed away from cancer, I do as much as I can to support this charity and those affected by cancer. So Breast Cancer Awareness Month does mean something to me. 

Have you done anything in October for charity or for a community or volunteer project? 

Yes, for my birthday in October, I used the Facebook fundraiser tool to receive donations in support for charity. 

October 10 was World Mental Health Day – how important is this subject in your business and in your life? 

This is a very important area of life; we need to focus and support our mental health to be successful in business and achieve our goals. I primarily train sales staff, as selling can be a stressful role that impacts on our mental health, i.e., presenteeism and burnout. It’s important to make sure the businesses I work with support the mental health of their staff.

What practical activities do you participate in at home or at work to protect your mental health?

Me personally – I have a good routine to protect my mental health, this includes, meditation, exercise, time to relax and reflect, etc.

It’s Halloween this month – what, if anything, does this mean to you?

Nothing in particular, but I am a fan of the traditions and seasonal holidays. And I love sweets!

Clocks go back this month – an extra hour in bed? How do you feel about the darker nights etc? 

You have to be adaptable in life and business, so I will just not let it impact on my routine!

Have you got any events planned you’d like to shout about – either that you are running or attending? 

Yes, I am due to be hosting a webinar on behalf of IAST (International Sales Training Association) and for Tony Morris International. Dates TBC. 

Have you got any services or special offers you’d like to mention? 

Yes, my ‘Sales Psychology’ sales training programme:
