What our clients say about us

Bernard is an expert who knows his subject matter to the extreme. When he speaks you listen because he knows what he is talking about. I would have no hesitation at all in highly recommending him as a person and as someone who can really help you business to grow its sales and increase your profits!

Paul Kincell, President, Chartered Management Institute (Doncaster & Barnsley Branch)

The sales training session went down really well and hit the right notes. I think what came across most of all was your credibility and believability. People want to know what works and then they will do it and I think you gave us some really good ideas. I shall certainly be taking them forward to take the service that I provide to my customers to a higher level.

Jordan Marshall, Commercial Finance Planning Manager, HSBC, Financial Services

I have an ever growing number of marketing consultants beating a path to my door but what I've found in Courtney Borthwick of Size 10½ Boots is a deep understanding of the fundamentals of legal BD and an uncanny ability to provide insightful advice and add value, every time.

Nick Symington, Business Development Director, Langleys Solicitors

After a rigorous tendering process Size 10½ Boots came out as the obvious choice. Their understanding of our culture, issues, market and direction showed that they had put in the effort. Coming to the end of the first year and we are seeing the results that were promised and a new enthusiasm from the firm to embrace BD. I have no doubt that the investment we have made in Bernard, Doug and the team will be paying dividends for many years to come.

Jason Edge, Head of Marketing and Business Development, Mayo Wynne Baxter Solicitors

Our experience with Size 10½ Boots has been a breath of fresh air and, speaking as someone who would have laughed heartily at the idea of BD training for barristers 3 years ago, I am a convert and looking forward to what we can achieve with our new found direction and approach.

Scott Baldwin, Head Clerk, St Mary's Chambers

We needed to train our lawyers on the art of bringing in new business. Size 10½ Boots designed and delivered a high impact training programme, supplemented by one-to-one coaching for senior managers. The result was to create an energized marketing culture which has had a positive impact on the bottom line just when we needed it.
