The difference between surviving and now thriving

I am a personal trainer and have been in business for many years, so motivating others to achieve, is what I do. I discovered Fiona whilst reading her business coaching article in NZ Business Magazine. That was the light bulb moment I needed. She was going to be my business personal trainer. Fiona encouraged, guided, inspired, but mostly motivated me to achieve. Her knowledge for business is outstanding and her ability to get results without adding pressure made it exciting and fun for me. Sometimes in business we need an extra pair of eyes, to see what we have and how we can build and Fiona was those eyes. Fiona was the difference between my business just surviving and now thriving. I would encourage anyone to get Fiona on board, no matter how experienced or long you have been in business.

Wealth of knowledge when it comes to growing a business

Fiona certainly has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to growing a business, strategic thinking and actual marketing. I can not express my appreciation enough, for the structured sessions each and every time. She allocated ample time to understand me, my business and my clients and what opportunities I can derive, before the actual process started. I believe this is what made this programme very unique, valuable and a success. Not just a copy and paste programme, as there is so much to choose from when looking for help, rather one filled with valuable tools, processes and direction. The fact that she extracted the absolute best from me, re-iterating my strengths and focusing on those, got my confidence right up there, thinking big and putting plans and goals in place. The accountability that she embeds in achieving those small ‘wins’ every week, as we worked through the process was just great. I am on my way to reaching new heights in my business and building a great brand, growing from strength to strength. Looking forward to continue my journey with Fiona going forward. Thank you

Future-proofed my business

There are times in business when a fresh set of eyes and world experience is essential for you to grow, change or just reset. I have owned my own businesses for over 20 years, I approached Fiona for mentoring and coaching as we were/are going through an exceptional growth phase. It was one of the best decisions I have made, especially as it was proactive (rather than trying to put out fires). Fiona has helped guide my business through constructive input into systems, staff management, time management and so much more, her insights have helped shape us so we are in a future-proofed position. If you are considering a business influencer take the time to have a coffee with Fiona!

A genuine desire to help others

Working with Fiona has been amazing. She really helped me to gain more clarity on the priorities for my business over the next 12 months. What I appreciated most about Fiona’s style was that she really listened to my needs, niche, goals and working style and was able to deliver a really practical plan that meets both personal and business outcomes. She does all this from a genuine desire to help others. Thank you, Fiona.
