“We've worked with Helen on sales training courses for our members a few times now, and she's a joy to work with.”

Always friendly, flexible and incredibly knowledgeable, her courses are invaluable and have become a staple of what we offer.

Recommend!!”

Nikki Simpson, Managing Director at The International Magazine Centre

“I’ve been on many training courses, but Inktop’s are a cut above the rest.”

“I had a couple light bulb moments throughout the three hour group session through listening to peers within the publishing world and then again in the 1-2-1 follow up session. I now have a notebook full of notes that I have referred to several times since our chat only days ago.

Looking forward to the next!”

Jayne Atkinson, Senior Business Development Manager, The List Publishing
