Words of endorsement from our clients

“Rebecca's insight-led and tailored approach to growth has played a pivotal role in guiding the development of my business, which commenced in July of last year. I worked with Rebecca to develop a 12-month business strategy, establishing precise objectives rooted in real data. This process offered clarity regarding the allocation of my time and resources to achieve these goals effectively. Her expertise in diagnosing challenges and identifying opportunities helped me prioritise effectively, ensuring that every resource was utilised efficiently. With her guidance, I've not only clarified my key messages but also honed in on the most effective marketing strategies to communicate them. This has been pivotal in refining my brief to the marketing company, ensuring they align with my priorities. Now, I have a clear roadmap outlining monthly goals, prioritised actions, and measurable metrics for success.

I have truly appreciated Rebecca’s collaborative approach, which was tailored to my needs as a small business owner. Understanding that some concepts might be complex or unfamiliar to me, she patiently walked me through them, offering clear explanations and practical exercises. This approach not only facilitated learning but also empowered me to take ownership of my business's strategic direction.

I wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca to any small business owner wanting an realistic roadmap to sustainable growth.”

Rebecca’s approach is very collaborative and I really enjoy the way we brainstorm ideas freely and then spend time aligning those ideas to our goals. The process kept us focused on the priorities and has ultimately given us the opportunity to redirect our energy in the business to the things that matter. We’ve felt empowered to ask the silly questions which has been a life saver! Rebecca’s coaching has also helped us think about ourselves and our business from the outside looking in which ultimately helps us to be better business leaders in the long term.”
