Amanda is great at helping me understand the blind spots. Amanda offers a different perspective with fresh eyes. Nearly every conversation offers an A-HA moment."

"Amanda John's is very intelligent and passionate about her career. She without a doubt has helped my company think outside the box and helped develop us to approach what we were currently doing in a much more efficient manner. She has helped me and my colleagues understand concepts that we had never thought of before and I'm excited to apply what she has taught me. I was very appreciative of her time and knowledge."

"Amanda exceeded my expectations - she is the definition of professional. Her research was thorough, she learned the essentials of our business. Her recommendations were realistic and executable. Finally Amanda's presentation is dynamic, engaging and motivating!"
Jessica Cairncross VP of Sales, Roset USA
“We quickly executed a 30 days analysis and what Amanda and Southwestern Consulting™ came back with was mind blowing. They uncovered many opportunities for improvement and broken processes. In some cases we were too close to the problems to see them and in others we were too egotistical to consider there might be a problem. We followed up that analysis with a sales process and call center overhaul. It’s turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made as a leader. Our call-to-admission conversion ratio has quadrupled! This has not only made a big impact on our company, but think of the number of people that have now committed to getting help that we were missing before. Amazing!”
Lee Pepper CMO, Foundations Recovery Network
“Amanda spoke to us about Gender and Generational Differences at a recent Nashville Junior Chamber Membership Meeting. We loved her! Not only an expert on the topic, her interactive delivery was spot on. She kept a room full of young professionals focused and engaged; we were laughing one minute and brainstorming the next. It would be our absolute pleasure to have her address the organization again!”
Amanda Wyler President, Nashville Junior Chamber
"Amanda is very personable and is always upbeat. She provides creative solutions that are simple, highly effective and efficient. Her high energy and enthusiasm lead you to realize that you can conquer any challenge with ease."
Lisa Meireis VP, Guaranty Bank & Trust
"Amanda is a powerful and brilliant speaker on sales and management issues. She is also a great sales coach, recruiter and trainer. She is enthusiastic, intelligent and an inspiration to all of us who have the privilege of knowing her."
Steve Savage President, Savage International
“I work in a very diverse office – roughly 50-50 men to women – where communication is constant between individuals and the whole group. While we all work well together, we constantly find each other misinterpreting or miscommunicating the intended message. Your presentation was fascinating for several of us (2 men, 3 women) to attend. There were several “Eureka!” moments when we turned to each other and smiled about those exact examples taking place in our office. While we already were operating well, I think the new insights into our different communication and relation styles will help us to be even more effective and efficient with our communication in the future."
William Ripley Account Executive, Brooksource
"Amanda is an outstanding go-getter! She has acquired many talents over the years which makes her an absolute joy to not only work with, but to be around. You can't help but be drawn in by her knowledge of sales and her personality."
Marc Matthews Sr Loan Officer, Coldwell Banker Home Loans
"Amanda did a wonderful job teaching our agency social media to use as a tool to help with our recruiting. She had great attention to detail and was phenomenal at teaching us in a way that it was easy to grasp and implement ourselves"
