Testimonials

I was introduced to Ciaran McKenna from Woodhazel Consulting back in July 2020 by a mutual friend. To be honest I was reluctant to engage with Woodhazel and the process at the beginning.

After meeting with Ciaran more than once he explained in detail the process involved and from there I felt more comfortable engaging with his company and the journey ahead.

Because of Covid 19 my business was decimated and I had time to evaluate where my business was at and how to prepare for a post Covid Ireland.

Total Control is the name of my company and I provide an Auditing/Stock Control service to the Hospitality/Retail Industry as well as Consulting and Mentoring clients when required to do so.

Ciaran was able to help me refocus my mind on what I had achieved in
my 20 years trading as Total Control and through his Coda course (Philosophy of Sales Leadership) he helped me take a look at what I had achieved to date and now refocus my outlook for an even brighter future for my business post Covid.

Sometimes it needs an outsider with fresh eyes to give you back that belief and confidence in what you have been doing and point you in the right direction for the future.

Ciaran also advised me to think outside the box in terms of aligning Total Control to similar type businesses with a synergy to us. This can only prove to have a positive influence on my company and should improve and enhance our exposure going forward.

Director/Owner of Total Control Ltd


I have been working with Ciaran McKenna of Woodhazel Consulting for the last eight months

I have completed the philosophy of selling course and the philosophy of sales leadership course with Ciaran over an 8 week program. One of the key benefits I enjoyed about the course is the application of the theory I learned to true real life business scenarios for example his tools for grading customers and his theory regarding management styles.

I have applied the customer grading theory generated by Ciaran to new and existing clients which allowed me to see which clients are more profitable and more enjoyable to work with within my practice. Upon completing the philosophy of selling course I have gained confidence within myself which has resulted in my ability to successfully take control of the sales process for one particular client which resulted in generating fee income for my practice in excess of €10,000.

As a new business owner I would have traditionally ignored the requirement for training in the sales and leadership areas however working with Ciaran over the last couple of months has really opened my mind to maximizing my relationship with key staff within the business and building long lasting relationships with customers and other key stakeholders of the business.

I would have no hesitation recommending Ciaran’s course the philosophy of selling or the philosophy of leadership to any new business owner. I would also regard Ciaran as a great sounding board for business ideas but would also highly value his opinion on other issues that I face with in my business. I very much class him as a mentor and I look forward to continue working with him for the foreseeable future.
