How can you grow your business with confidence?
Running your own business is one of the most satisfying projects you can engage in. You are free to choose your creative direction, contribute to causes that light you up and collaborate with people that inspire you. At the same time, it’s not enough to be an expert in your field. You must lead, strategise, market, sell, organise, budget and adapt to a plethora of circumstances for your business to succeed. Whether you’re sharing a critical message, delivering a product or service of exceptional quality or transforming our world in some other way, it’s worth asking the hard questions…
Who are you, and what value do you offer?
How can you contribute at your highest potential?

Business Coaching Testimonials

Sam Cawthorn
“Rebecca provided invaluable advice and project management skills to Speakers Tribe as we prepared to embark on a significant growth trajectory. She was quick to understand our business strategy and culture; identify areas for improvement; and take a hands-on approach to helping us communicate and implement changes.
Rebecca has an eye for detail, can-do attitude and genuine enthusiasm that make her a pleasure to work with.”

“I needed a new direction for my business, but had no idea where to start.
Rebecca helped me to define my course and take actionable steps.
Rebecca is an amazing listener, who has brought the best out of me. She has the talent of distilling a monologue of 10 minutes into three sentences that are worth using in marketing materials. Rebecca helped me to roll out a subscription-based online yoga community, dream big and hit my goals.”

“Since working with Rebecca, I have gone from feeling totally overwhelmed and uninspired to having a sense of balance and purpose. I can finally breathe again.
I would highly recommend Rebecca to other creatives who feel like they have too many tabs open in their brain and need support from someone who is kind, honest, and can offer really practical reflection on the areas of their business and life they wish to focus on.
I had been running two creative businesses for a couple of years but was clueless about the 'business' side of things. With Rebecca's support, I developed a clear vision and accomplished all of my key goals that had seemed just out of reach beforehand. It is an amazing feeling, and I am now inspired and excited for the future again.”

How to navigate complex decisions
How to communicate more assertively
How to craft a compelling value proposition

Business coaches and consultants both help you boost performance, but their approaches are quite different. While a business coach focuses on you as an owner, leader and, above all, a human being, a consultant focuses on the business and how it operates. While a business coach offers thought-provoking questions to help you arrive at your own conclusions, a consultant will advocate specific solutions. While a business coach will equip you with a range of tools to deal with complex decisions and take new actions, a consultant will typically do the work on your behalf.
When choosing between a coach and a consultant, a useful question to ask yourself is: do I just need to get the job done and move on (consultant) or do I want to invest in my personal and professional growth (coach)?
