Reviews
Three words come to mind when I reflect on Rachel’s business coaching – strategic, supportive and expert! Rachel is a natural strategic thinker, so if you’re looking to grow and scale a business that has high revenue and profitability, Rachel helped me achieve that. She also encouraged my growth professionally and personally and helped me identify my positive purpose in my community. Rachel coached me in my business sale process and suported me to achieve a higher value for the hard work, time and energy I had invested. Rachel is an expert and her journey from conception to franchising and eventual sale with Bright & Beautiful is so powerful. I cannot recommend Rachel highly enough.
Rachel Ray has played a significant role in my business by building my confidence as a small business owner and by removing perceived limitations to growth. Rachel’s valuable experience in growing and franchising businesses has been instrumental to me seeing the potential in my business for growth and multiplication.
Rachel’s coaching was extremely helpful to me, helping me gain new clarity, focus and renewed energy after a period of change in my business. She helped me narrow down and strengthen my proposition and revisit how I position my offer. Rachel is generous in sharing her own experiences and insights and never talks down to you.
Rachel was my mentor during Freelanceher100 at Host Media City and her skills were invaluable. Being able to bounce ideas off her and her providing accountability for me was the push I needed to get an idea off the ground. I’d highly recommend Rachel’s services.
Rachel is an insightful coach & mentor who aims to help you get the best out of yourself and your business. She has a calm positive attitude and is all about action, in a decisive way but not table thumping. I appreciated her insights, approaches and support and would recommend her full heartedly.
