More About Richard Abrahams

Having run his own successful and award-winning direct home improvements Business, Elmhurst Windows in Leeds, for over 32 years, it was fairly obvious that Richard would front and present all the Elmhurst review videos, interviewing customers whilst showing off their new products, for the Elmhurst social media platforms.

He is indeed Elmhurst’s in-house “influencer”.

Being on the front line of direct sales for over 30 years has given Richard the credibility of not only training his own sales force but also sales teams from external organisations. His work as an ambassador for the Inner Game of Sales Academy puts a different spin on his sales training approach where he focuses more on subjects like positive psychology, peak performance training & understanding buyers’ motivations.

Richard trains individuals and teams but also speaks at sales conferences for a number of organisations.

Running an SME in today’s world has its challenges and in 2018 Richard unfortunately suffered with severe mental health problems which hospitalised him in a psychiatric unit. This was the worst time in Richard’s life.

Through his journey of recovery, Richard decided to use his public speaking skills to spread the word and become an advocate for men’s mental health, in particular. He now speaks across the UK telling “his story” whilst at the same time, giving valuable advise to men, warning of the dangers of brushing mental health under the carpet, exposing the vulnerability of men, uncovering the mask of masculinity & re-wiring the brain to enjoy a more balanced work-life future.

Richard presents corporate videos, voice over’s for radio & TV and “stars” in his own Sky Ad Smart TV commercial for Elmhurst . He hosts his own podcast, “Unlock your mental health” and is about to embark on a new series of podcasts for the fenestration industry.

Richard Abrahams is a regular contributor on BBC Radio Leeds & hosts his own show “Mind Your Business” on community radio.

Earlier this year Richard masterminded the first Men’s mental health event in Leeds called “Re-Wired” – an eye opener for men to enjoy a day away from the office to hear inspirational speakers, network & participate in workshops.
