“Prior to working with Pod Communications, we were looking for ways in which we could offer our clients digital learning solutions that would add value to the workshops our consultants deliver.


Thanks to Pod, we are now able to use digital media to design and deliver solutions that are beneficial both to our clients and ourselves. With Joe Pélissier's knowledge and expertise, we look forward to growing and developing our use of digital communications in marketing and training.”

Francis Marshall

Managing Director – Cegos UK

"Joe Pélissier has helped the British Pest Control Association (BPCA) create an online training and reference service for the pest control industry. In addition, we are using Joe's marketing know-how to increase awareness of our value-added services to existing members as well as promotions aimed at non-members.

With Joe's experience and professionalism in digital communication, we look forward to his support in developing operational systems for the benefit of the industry and the Association."


Oliver Madge

Chief Executive Officer – BPCA

"We have started to collaborate with Joe Pélissier on in-house projects as a follow-up to his webwriting course.

Joe's experience and phenomenal group relational skills make him a rare and precious resource to us, and we are very much looking forward to continued collaboration with him via our accredited suppliers."

“PENSIONSFORCE has been operating since September 2006 but convincing employers that they should offer the service to their employees has been a significant challenge.

Joe Pélissier listened to what we wanted to say and carried out research to help us to identify the key messages for employers. Working with his designers has enabled us to produce attractive, concise marketing material which is reaching its target. We have significantly increased the number of employers taking advantage of our service as a result.”

Frances Corbett

Project Manager – PENSIONSFORCE


"Sometimes you come up with an idea that requires creative and technical wizardry to provide an internal client with exceptional value. Then, after the initial excitement has worn off, the scale and difficulty of the task becomes apparent.


Enter Pod Communications and Joe Pélissier who were able to bring patience, insight and creative expertise to our plans to animate the CHEP competency model.


Through a 4-month collaboration Pod Communication helped, cajoled, advised and produced an interactive method for demonstrating and explaining the competencies that underpin our business. The finished animation is both professional and engaging and is fast becoming a significant tool for the further communication and education of our staff. Each competency animation crosses cultures and languages, and has delivered much more than we expected when we came up with the idea.


Would we recommend Pod Communications? Yes, absolutely, I would thoroughly recommend others to check out what Pod Communications could do for them."

Steve Kelsey

European Learning Manager, CHEP

“Thank you for delivering an excellent web-writing course. The participants were enthusiastic.

It doesn't happen so often that participants come out of a training course with so much information they can put immediately into practice.”

“Joe Pélissier had a unique way of understanding our business.


He attended the training we provided, asked the right questions and as a result was able to capture Rory Gillen’s (Course Director) know-how and expertise. This simplified our workload and give us the ability to use online video to get our message across to a wider audience with credibility and believability.”

Why You Should Invest in Developing an Expertise

Just because you can write and talk, it doesn’t mean you can communicate effectively. Everyone, even experts, learn from someone else’s know-how.

Our two training courses are:

1. Writing for the Web

Websites that sell products or services must be under the control of those who know how to communicate effectively with existing and future clients.

If you write the copy for your site, it is essential to learn the rules that influence its impact and effectiveness. Even if you don’t write but you are involved with the site via marketing or IT, you need to be aware of what works and why.

You need to understand the way your site influences how people do business with you. It could make the difference between users leaving after 5 seconds or staying for 2 minutes to learn more.

Writing for the Web is guaranteed to change the way you think about your website and how you can improve it.

2. Presenting with Self-Confidence

If you ask someone to make presentations for you, you owe it to them to make sure they are properly trained. Even experienced presenters encounter some level of fear, so is it fair to expect those new to it to be good if they are lacking in self-assurance and are fearful?

Under the supervision of the actor Richard Gibson, learn how to:

  • Overcome fear
  • Organise your content
  • Deliver with self-assurance

Good presentation skills are one of the most important and persuasive communication tools. You do yourself and your company a disservice by not taking them seriously.

Presenting with Self-Assurance is guaranteed to help you overcome your presentation fears and boost your confidence levels.
