“As the head of IT support at the Zurich Psychiatric Clinic, finding efficient solutions and ensuring customer satisfaction are important to me. To achieve this, IT support staff must overcome various challenges: quickly analyzing often complex issues, collaborating effectively with other IT departments, and demonstrating strong communication skills.

The content and methods are TOP-NOTCH and help us serve our customers even better.”

“Through our collaboration with benefit IMPACT, we saw a significant increase in sales conversions and the professional execution of sales conversations. We attribute this to the change in our store associates’ sales behavior, which was achieved through methods tailored to specific target groups and focused on the customer. In the training program, both sales consultants and store managers were held equally accountable.”
“In March, we provided our field sales team with targeted sales development training. The goal was to reach a new market segment. After the first day of training, the seven field sales representatives had already scheduled 94 meetings with NEW customers. On the second day, these meetings were systematically prepared, and the sales pitches were practiced on an individual basis. Despite having a diverse, culturally mixed team with extensive sales experience, the feedback has been unanimously excellent. The results speak for themselves, and the sales team is highly motivated to keep this up. I knew it would go well, but I was pleasantly surprised once again.”
“Working with Pascal Schwartz and benefit IMPACT is a pleasure and very professional.
From the planning stage through to the delivery of the training sessions, our wishes and needs were taken into account and implemented in a practical way. In both training programs—
and
“Fit in Sales Leadership”—the desired behaviors are not only discussed but also intensively practiced. The positive experiences gained from these training sessions support and motivate participants to apply what they’ve learned in their interactions with customers. The feedback has been consistently positive.”
“Thank you very much for your valuable support in preparing for our trade show appearances. The structured approach—from defining our trade show goals to their effective implementation, including guidelines for behavior at the booth—has significantly improved both the quality and quantity of our contacts compared to previous years. Thank you very much for your expert support.”
“Between August and October, benefit IMPACT trained our store managers and assistant store managers to become sales ambassadors. Equipped with a benefit IMPACT Toolbox®, the store managers are thoroughly trained and well-equipped to coach their sales teams on the desired sales behavior as needed. The design and content are entirely practical and tailored down to the exact wording on the signs. It’s clear that benefit IMPACT understands the retail industry. The collaboration has been very pleasant for us as a project team, and this is reflected in the feedback from the stores. As a nice bonus, the program is already showing its first results.”
“Team-building workshops are the pinnacle of a training company’s expertise—provided they aren’t just ‘fun events.’ benefit IMPACT very professionally identified the goals and needs in advance and actively guided the process through to the end of the workshop. Without coming across as pushy, the workshop helped establish commitments and identify areas for improvement. Personally, I associate benefit IMPACT with a high level of professionalism and a focus on results.”
“benefitIMPACT has helped our sales managers and general agents develop their sales leadership skills in a refreshing and highly practical way. We were particularly impressed by benefitIMPACT’s flexibility in integrating the training with our own leadership model (LP3). The participants’ enthusiasm and the program’s practical relevance are reflected in an impressive feedback score of 9.4 out of 10.”
“knecht reisen AG has decided to train ‘ambassadors’ who regularly conduct training sessions with all sales employees to further enhance our consulting expertise when working with our customers. benefitIMPACT actively supported and guided us through the planning and training phases. We were particularly impressed by the practical and realistic approach of the benefitIMPACT trainers. The training sessions are highly engaging and provide significant added value for the participants. We would be very happy to collaborate with benefitIMPACT again on other topics.”
“Excellent results require excellent people. People like you, Pascal, who take customer needs seriously, understand them, and then do everything in their power to meet them. People like you, who throw themselves into their work with passion, never lose sight of what matters most, and continually scrutinize the approach—refining and adapting it as needed. All with the question in mind: What’s the point? What’s the benefit? This has resulted in an excellently structured sales program with a lasting impact. One that will continue to be a credit to Globus for a long time to come.”
“In August, we trained our newly formed sales team using benefit IMPACT. The goal was to encourage proactive outreach and develop positive, persuasive sales pitches. In addition to maintaining high quality standards, it was important to us to effectively showcase our unique services. The training was very effective; it instilled a positive spirit in the team and brought the members closer together.”
“To help our young and newly formed team hit the ground running and use the grand opening as a kick-off, we addressed and explored various topics and questions related to teamwork during a team-building session. Together, we developed strategies for our future collaboration. The deliberate decision to hold an “out-in-the-open” event gave us the opportunity to try “team cooking under challenging conditions,” from which we were able to gain further exciting insights. Many thanks to benefit IMPACT for the exciting concept, the excellent planning, and the professional yet playful execution.”
“benefit IMPACT has been supporting us for several years in the development of our client advisors. The most recent project was ‘The Schroders Experience,’ which aimed to provide our clients with a holistic and honest advisory experience—from the moment they walk in the door through to performance. At the heart of the program were highly interactive, personalized training sessions with our client advisors. The training is methodologically based on the SAQ challenges and thus provides our client advisors with the best possible foundation for successful certification, which several of them already completed on schedule last year.”
“Over the past three years, benefit IMPACT has trained our sales, workshop, and parts service managers as they worked toward obtaining their leadership certification. The collaboration across the various training modules can be described as very successful, both from the Academy’s perspective and based on participant feedback. I would like to highlight the highly practical methodology and the high level of professionalism.”
“benefit IMPACT played a key role in supporting the rollout of the new advisory process at Vontobel Wealth Management. The interactive training with actors enabled our client advisors to practice all aspects of their client meetings in realistic advisory scenarios. The thorough preparation for the training sessions, as well as the valuable feedback from the benefit IMPACT trainers, were highly appreciated by our participants and could be applied immediately. The extensive experience of the trainers and actors involved enabled all participants to reflect on and improve their advisory approach.”
“For several years now, benefit IMPACT has been advising and training us on topics related to sales and leadership. In addition to their expertise and professionalism, I particularly value their in-depth industry knowledge. This results in highly practical solutions. I look forward to continuing this partnership in the future.”
“Thank you for your consistently constructive and very pleasant collaboration. I look forward to the next milestones.”
“The collaboration on leadership and sales training at Valora was excellent. They knew how to support me in the area of customer focus and provided the right trainers—people who know how to motivate my employees and prepare them for their roles.”
