At The TRAINING Guys, our Brand Ambassador Training is a leading retail training course in South Africa, designed to equip frontline staff with essential retail customer service skills that drive real results. Through practical, hands-on learning, we focus on customer service training, sales training for staff, and point of sale training that builds confidence and professionalism in every team member. From shop assistant training to advanced upselling training, our programme empowers staff to engage customers warmly, listen actively, and create meaningful shopping experiences.


This comprehensive customer engagement training not only transforms staff into trusted advisors but also boosts sales, strengthens customer loyalty, and enhances your store’s reputation. Whether you operate a single shop or a national retail chain, our Brand Ambassador Training provides the tools and strategies your team needs to consistently deliver excellence on the sales floor.

The Problem

  • In retail, staff are often seen as “just employees” rather than brand representatives.
  • Inconsistent customer service leads to lost sales and weak brand loyalty.
  • Many staff lack training in essential retail customer service skills such as product knowledge, upselling, and customer engagement.
  • Store managers face the challenge of building sustainable sales with high staff turnover and varying skill levels.

The Solution – BRAND Ambassador Training

  • A practical, retail-focused training programme designed for store staff, supervisors, and managers.
  • Equips teams with customer service training, sales training, point of sale training, and upselling techniques.
  • Transforms frontline staff into brand ambassadors who represent your company with professionalism and pride.
  • Delivered in-person by trained facilitators for maximum engagement and long-lasting results.

Why This Matters

  • Customers buy more than just products — they buy experiences.
  • Well-trained staff create trust, repeat business, and positive word-of-mouth.
  • Turning employees into brand ambassadors builds sustainable sales and strengthens your brand reputation.
  • In a competitive South African retail market, outstanding service is often the difference between winning and losing customers.

Your BRAND is your Most Important Asset!

This is my personal commitment to you:

John Comley

"At The TRAINING Guys, we understand that your people are your greatest asset — the face of your brand and the heartbeat of your customer experience. That’s why we’ve developed our Brand Ambassador Training, a programme designed not just to train staff, but to transform them into proud ambassadors of your business.


In today’s competitive retail environment, it’s no longer enough for staff to simply process transactions. Customers expect connection, service, and trust. When your team consistently delivers this, you don’t just make a sale — you build a relationship. And relationships are what drive sustainable sales and long-term growth.


Our commitment is simple: to help you build your brand, by equipping your staff to live it out every day on the shop floor. With the right training, your people become more than employees; they become the very reason your customers keep coming back.


Together, we can shape a retail experience that makes your brand stand out — and keeps it strong for the future."
