Following a highly successful sales career Brian applied many of those same skills to the fiercely competitive world of F1 and international motorsport, both as a well-sponsored professional race driver and then a ground-breaking exponent
of sponsorship acquisition
He is recognised internationally as one of motorsport's most successful and experienced sponsorship sales exponents, he has acquired in excess of
£100 million at all levels, up to and including F1
Highlights of his career include securing the multi-million pound deals that brought FedEx, Gillette
and Marconi into F1 for the first time
As a Speaker, Brian has a rare ability to motivate, entertain and inform sales audiences about his
years spent in the extraordinary business world
of F1, as well as racing professionally thanks to his outstanding skill for acquiring sponsorship.
He has the rare ability to speak the language of professional sales personnel at all levels and to share his skills and experience developed throughout his extraordinary career in the business world of international sport
Partying at his house with James Hunt and other Grand Prix drivers, a business meeting in the USA
with Gene Hackman, coffee with Paul Newman and lunch with Kelly Holmes, working with John Cleese, and the cast of a BBC TV sit-com .... just some of his wonderful inspirational stories
Testament to his sales skills, in 2015 Brian was invited to become a Visiting Fellow of the prestigious
World Academy of Sport, passing on those skills
to senior executives in sports associations, such as World Rugby, the International Cricket Council and the
International Paralympics Committee
