Grant Hyman

Grant’s writings have also been published widely in print and online as per the articles at the Library. Further, Grant has shared his expertise via written articles for various business audiences, in addition to having been a guest business speaker on radio, as well as successfully addressing various student groups (both MBA students and senior Secondary-School students) on aspects of business and sales.

Grant provides his expertise on a contract/project basis to organisations seeking to improve their revenues, margins and relevant processes and systems.

Some of Grant's individual in-field Sales achievements, in addition to local and national management roles -

•  IBM Gold Badge (the highest award available in the area of Grant's specialty).

•  Canon Australia - Top NATIONAL Divisional Rep of the Year 5 times in 6 consecutive sales years, in a team of 21 salespeople.

•  ACI-CS (at the time, Australia's biggest IBM reseller and IBM-based bureau) - the only rep NATIONALLY to consistently appear in the TOP 3 (out of a team of 29 salespeople) in both revenue AND profit percentages and the only sales rep to ever achieve the Non-Sales Best and Fairest award.

•  Director's Club in Network Marketing despite joining post-launch with no existing team (no-one else did it). Specifically, 14,500 people had joined ahead of Grant and yet he made it into the TOP 15 out of over 100,000 in less than 6 months. Grant did this by recruiting, motivating and leading by example, a team of 450 part-time distributors and producing 1st year retail sales in excess of $1,000,000 (average per sale value $37.50).

Grant has also been a Mentor in the NSW Government's Western Sydney Stepping Up Program. He currently writes for a popular online magazine and is available as a Speaker, whether your event is a Meeting, Incentive, Conference or Exhibition. Further, Grant has always tried to donate time to the community (including 4 years as a NSW Police Lay Visitor, 6 years as a Strata Chairman, member of the local community bank Founding Committee, an Executive Member of the local Chamber of Commerce and a JP since 1987). Grant is also in favour of sponsoring children in less fortunate countries and circumstances and is a Customer Service Volunteer at Doggie Rescue.

Clients have referred to Grant as "the Sales Guru", "the Sales Legend" and "our Sales Doctor". To see and hear Grant speaking with a live audience, click here and to see him speaking alone, please click here.
