HAPPY PEOPLE,
HAPPY BUSINESS.
There are plenty of consulting and training agencies to chose from, so it can be hard to know which one is right for you. Here are ten reasons we believe Sarsaparilla is the only choice for you, your business, and your people.
10 REASONS TO CHOOSE SARSAPARILLA.
1. WHAT YOU LEARN WILL ACTUALLY STICK
Most people forget up to 90% of what they learn within a week, which means most of the time, money, and energy poured into training is quietly wasted.¹ Sarsaparilla is built to break that pattern. Our proven techniques make learning stick, which is why 90% of our clients tell us they still remember and apply what they learned many years later. It's also why we encourage you not to take notes. We know you'll never read them anyway.
2.YOU'LL sTOP STRUGGLING AND START SUCCEEDING IN ANY ECONOMY
Every day without the right skills is another opportunity lost. Investing in your people is proven to pay dividends, and ours pay even more. Studies show companies with strong training see up to 218% higher revenue per employee, 24% higher profit margins, and 47% lower staff turnover than those that skimp on it.² Those are the averages. Because our work is built to stick where most training fades, our clients don't just match those numbers, they outperform them, even through tough economic times. In fact, businesses that keep investing through a downturns are the ones most likely to come out ahead.³
3. YOU'LL RETAIN YOUR BEST PEOPLE
Losing a talented person is expensive, and replacing them can cost up to a third of their salary. People stay where they feel valued. Our work does more than just build skills, it shows your people they matter enough to invest in. They leave feeling seen, supported, and secure, and people who feel that way don't go looking elsewhere. A Gallup pole even found companies that develop their people are twice as likely to retain them, while lifting profitability by 11%.⁴
4. YOU'll BECOME A TRIPLE THREAT
In theatre, a triple threat is the ultimate performer who can act, sing, and dance. At Sarsaparilla we build the ultimate leader through marketing, media, and the performing arts. These three pillars of communication help transform our leaders into confident, compelling, and unstoppable forces. It's a competitive edge you can't find anywhere else.
5. YOUR PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY WANT TO ATTEND (and WANT MORE)
A leader's time is precious, so if they don't see the value in an activty, they won't show up. Nobody can afford a day away from the desk for training that feels like a school lecture and is forgotten by the next morning. Our sessions are so engaging, and so genuinely useful, that your people won't want to be anywhere else. They'll leave inspired, knowing their time was well spent, and look forward to returning back for more in the future.
6. YOU'lL PRACTICE YOUR NEW SKILLS (EVEN ONLINE)
Real confidence doesn't come from a pretty slide deck. It comes from practising, getting it wrong, and trying again in a safe environment. Most training talks at you for hours. We do the opposite. We give your people a voice, a safe space to rehearse, and honest feedback, so every skill feels natural long before the real moment arrives. When it does, they don't hesitate. They deliver.
7. YOU'LL LEARN THE PSYCHOLOGY BEHIND THE STRATEGY
It's not enough to know what to do, you need to understand why it works so you can grow and adapt. We're geeks for the psychology behind human behaviour, and we sprinkle it into everything we do. When your people understand the why, they don't just follow a formula, they adapt it, own it, innovate and make a far bigger impact.
8. YOU'LL LEARN FROM THE BEST OF THE BEST
They say those who can't do, teach. Not here. Sarsaparilla gives you access to leading experts from the world's most trusted outlets, including the BBC and CNN, so you're always learning from people who actively work at the highest level, and can close your skills gap in the fastest time possible.
9. YOU WILL APPLY THESE SKILLS IN ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE
The skills we teach are transferable, which means they don't clock off at five. Your people will use them in the boardroom, at the dinner table, and in every conversation that matters. You're not just investing in their career, you're investing in them, and that's something they'll always remember and apprecaite, whether they are trying to win a deal or win a heart.
10. EVERYTHING IS BUILT AROUND YOU
No two businesses face the same challenges, so no two of our programmes are alike. We tailor everything to your people, your goals, and your timeline, so you're never paying for training that doesn't fit. If you can't see exactly what you need in our list of services, it may be in our archives. If not, we'll design it! So be sure to ask.
