As Michael Brenner, CEO of the Marketing Insider Group, said, ‘Being fearless is not about how you feel; it’s about how you act.’ The winner of the NOTTY will need to demonstrate truly impressive achievements to impress this year’s judges.” 

Air Marketing is going all-in with its association with the awards. A promotional video is in production, an exciting ‘Fearless Leaders’ invite-only event is in the planning, and the team will also feature in a music video leading up to the awards.

Launch of The SDR Academy by Air Sales Academy

We are delighted to announce our further expansion with the launch of  The SDR Academy by Air Sales Academy – a virtual sales training academy to help businesses upskill their sales teams.

The SDR Academy is designed to help businesses across the UK, train Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) in skills including cold calling, social selling, email writing, and objection handling. All sessions are live and interactive, allowing delegates to ask questions as they learn.

Delivering the live sessions will be trainers like Erik Pollitt, a Sales Trainer & Consultant with over fifteen years of experience (including as Learning & Performance Manager at ao.com), Owen Richards (Air’s Founder & CEO) and James Ski (Founder of Sales Confidence).

Erik said: “Many businesses want to create a comprehensive training package for sales staff but don’t have the time, money, or experience. This is where Air’s Sales Academy comes into its own. With over 100 sessions on offer, delegates can attend as many or as few sessions as they want, whether they’re working from home or the office.

We offer an ongoing training solution. One that sees your sales reps experience industry leading training sessions every week. And with a cost of as little as £15 per person per session, companies will see a fantastic return on their investment.”

Owen Richards, Founder & CEO of Air Marketing, continued: “We’ve been providing sales support to companies across the country for several years, employing and training SDRs. As a part of that journey we have built a best-in-class training academy internally, and it makes sense to open that experience up to other organisations. We’re perfectly placed to offer relevant, innovative, and effective SDR training, and help other companies get the most out of their investment in sales roles.

It’s been exciting pulling all of the content together and now we’re able to offer this brand-new service to businesses that want to improve their sales results and see tangible results. I’m just looking forward to getting started.”

Roots to Market Are Merging With Air Marketing!

We’re delighted to announce that our sister company, an outsourced marketing agency, Roots to Market is merging with Air Marketing to create a full stack sales and marketing agency. Combining forces, we’ll deliver exceptional services in the UK and internationally for some of the world’s leading brands.

We began life in 2016, started by Founder & CEO, Owen Richards, who saw a gap in the market for professional, elite outsourced sales services. He built a team of likeminded and talented individuals who shared his passion for sales.

In 2018, Roots to Market was formed, providing clients with exceptional full-service marketing, positioning themselves as demand generation specialists and HubSpot Gold Partners.

Announcing the merger, Owen said “This landmark moment gives us the ability to deliver greater client value across sales and marketing, whilst maintaining and preserving our specialist services. Within our service portfolio we can provide clients with what they need, not what we can deliver.”

Ourselves and Roots to Market have been providing clients with this blended sales and marketing mix for some time now and Owen sees their integration as “…the next logical step – delivering our services without borders as one brand, one team and one organisation that will deliver high value for clients and accelerated growth for the business as a result.”

With both ourselves and Roots to Market having enjoyed high growth within the last two years and being equally positioned, coming together allows us to build on the development of an exceptional team, obsessed with unlocking client value.

Owen concludes “I’d like to thank everyone at Roots to Market and Air Marketing. It’s joint success that makes this so exciting and compelling. As one company we’ll be perfectly positioned to cater to our clients’ complex, strategic and multichannel needs in both sales and marketing.”
