In a world of accelerated change we have access to more products, services and information than ever before. This makes it hard to stand out and be innovative in a very competitive market place. We want to help as many passionate and purpose driven business succeed by helping them to think strategically, innovatively and creatively to attract and retain their ideal customers. Not only does this give us a better choice as a consumer, it also breeds a better type of product or service. We believe that business can help change the world and people are drawn to people and businesses that are trying to do things differently, that know there is a better way. Ultimately, business is about human connections, people buy from people, people buy from people they trust, value or aspire to be like. You love what you do and you want to share it with the people that stand for the same values as you (your tribe), you just need help attracting, converting and retaining them, and that’s what we’re here to do.
We're seriously committed to our vision and want to practice what we preach. We're on a mission to help 20 millions founders and business owners increase their entrepreneurial skills to create lasting impact for themselves and the people they serve.
No man is an island and we believe in collaboration and co-design. We are champions of having a design mindset and believe that creativity can be taught and consider all of our customers as our peers. So much so, they often become good friends (which is why we love you becoming part of our community). We are driven to constantly strengthen our knowledge in our multi-disciplinary fields and gain perspectives from diverse sources. We always want to provide the best service and are constantly refining our services to best match our client needs. We know that change is constant and there’s benefit to iterative processes; we are always thinking of ways we can improve what we do and what you can do for your clients. We believe in honesty and that every opinion counts. Our clients matter, our team matters, and we want work with people that are equally passionate about creating impact. We love what we do, it’s a lot of fun, so it doesn’t really feel like ‘work’ a lot of the time.
As well as our in-house team of experts we have built a network of incredible people that serve the entrepreneurial community across the world. From people that have scaled and sold their own startups, technology experts to government executives focused on driving innovation and the competitiveness of Australia. When you join one of our entourage programs (Marketing Entourage or Marketing Entourage for Startups) you will get supported by a whole ecosystem of people driven to help you succeed. It's not often we can't connect the participants of our programs to someone that will help them elevate their business and in the interim, we'll be supporting you to reach your goals.

From a very young age, I had always questioned ‘why’; which delighted my inventor father who made me, amongst other things, dismantle a toaster and rebuild it because I wanted to know how it worked, code my own computer games on an Acorn Electron (yes, I am really that old), and restore a classic car (to be my first car after I passed my test) at the age of 15. The constant questioning, discovering, understanding, and love of aesthetics are what lead me to work in senior sales & marketing roles internationally in the media and publishing industries.
