Leadership and Training franchise launches Scotland-wide operation
Posted On October , 2025
Sales Geek, the award-winning sales leadership and training franchise has expanded its operations throughout Scotland with the launch of Sales Geek Scotland under the direction of franchise co-owners, Peter Barclay and Davie Sneddon, two highly experienced senior sales professionals.
Building on its presence in Glasgow and Edinburgh since 2022, the new Scotland-wide operation will deliver a range of sales director support, including part-time and “fractional” services, for SMEs along with affordable bespoke training, mentoring and strategic sales analyses for companies of all sizes.
Peter said: “we have always believed the Scottish business community has huge untapped potential. The work we have done in Glasgow has been a proving ground and now we are ready to broaden that influence.
Our goal is to embed a problem-solving, relationship focused, results-driven sales culture into businesses across every region of Scotland, from Aberdeen to the Borders, Inverness to Dumfries, and we will be saluting that ambition at our forthcoming Sales Club event at Hampden Park, Glasgow, on the 21st of November.”
Davie added: “Expanding to cover all of Scotland is a huge milestone. We are assembling a team of experienced sales professionals, mentoring them, supporting them, and enabling each new franchisee to build their own local ecosystem.
The franchise model works because each territory is local, and we believe Scotland is ready for the level of expertise and partnership our Geeks will provide.
Over 200 businesses attended our Sales Club event this summer and our next on 21 November, bringing together businesses from across Scotland for a full day of inspiration, workshops and connection, will serve as a powerful launchpad for the newly unified Scotland franchise.”
Established in 2017, Sales Geek is a global franchise network operating in the UK, the USA, India and elsewhere, and is the largest provider of part-time sales directors in the world.
Founder Richard Few said: “When I launched Sales Geek the aim was to make top-level sales leadership accessible to businesses of all sizes, not just mega corporations.
Today our Geeks all over the world are delivering exceptional results in their communities. On average they are helping our clients achieve 38% growth in income, representing a 600% return on investment.”
He added: “Our expansion Scotland-wide is a significant step in realising our vision of a UK-wide franchise footprint, helping to support business growth the length and breadth of the country
“I’ve watched Peter and Davie build fantastic traction in Glasgow, forging strong connections and trust with local businesses. Their ambition, drive and values align perfectly with our Sales Geek mission, and I have no doubt they will scale Scotland into a powerhouse territory.”
Sales Geek’s Scottish expansion typifies how franchisees leverage central support, brand credibility, and shared resources to rapidly scale up their operations within their own territories.
By combining local market understanding with the systems and innovations developed at Sales Geek HQ, franchisees like Peter and Davie are transforming how regional businesses access senior-level sales leadership and growth support.
Scotland now represents a compelling opportunity for ambitious sales professionals to own a local franchise across the country, investing locally while benefiting from a proven brand, systems, mentoring, and shared resources.
The team expects strong interest from candidates across Scotland, especially those passionate about Sales Geek’s mission to change the way the world perceives sales.
