Sue Flannery - Cyberfrog Design Ltd
Francine has been brilliant at leading me through a series of sessions designed to increase productivity, profitability and growth for the business.
Her understanding of the business and the pain points we may have has been great and she made many insightful suggestions that I have already started to implement.
Francine is forensic in her understanding of business and how to use data to the greatest effect. I feel that I now have an effective plan and roadmap to move the business forward and grow in a sustainable and managed way.
On top of all that Fran is welcoming, easy to talk to and a real pleasure to work with. I would definitely work with her again and have no hesitation in recommending her to other businesses as the impact is undeniable!
Thanks Fran, you've been fantastic!

Having known & trusted Francine for many years, she recently provided me with some in depth consultancy growth and scale up support which has been invaluable for my business. Francine clearly understands business, the growth challenges faced and more importantly is adept at advising on how to overcome those challenges and clears the way for growth. I would not hesitate to recommend Francine to work with any business of any size, to assist them to run smoothly and scale! More...
Jamie Cater - We Are Web
I would highly recommend Fran to help support your business.
Fran is a 1st class coach, and has helped me really get to grips with my business, its value proposition, the financials and the overall structure.
Both knowledgable and a pleasure to work with, Fran has provided some unique insights which has helped me take a step back and realise my business in a more profitable and structured way.
If you are looking for a coach or help and support in growing and progressing your business, I can highly recommend working with Fran, who would definitely be a valued addition to your team.

Calvey Restorations
We approached Fran for business support to help grow our business & make areas more efficient. She completed a detailed Business Model Audit to review our existing model, which helped to identify strategies to be implemented in order to grow & improve quicker.
It also gave us a clear road map of what to do & in what order! Having an experienced third eye on our business has really supported our growth! Just one of Frans recommendations we implemented in particular, help us double our turnover! Every business needs to do one of these at least once a year to upgrade their business. Thanks again

Simply Brilliant Cleaning Co
I worked with Francine over a staged period of time to complete on an audit "birdseye" view on my 5 year old cleaning business which I started and run 5 days a week.
Francine not only is a delight to work with and easy to chat to but she grasped very quickly and efficiently the nuts and bolts of my business and was able to relate to my situation with ease and a high degree of competance. I felt safe in her hands and was keen to take on her recommendations on a highly detailed report which she delivered on every aspect of my business and which I am looking forward to implementing and hope to reep the results in the near future
Thankyou so much

I really cant recommend Francine enough. I required a business plan to secure a business start up loan for my new venture. Francine worked closely with me remotely to produce a comprehensive bespoke business plan that eould have took me a long time to pull together. She communicated regularly to ensure i was happy with the work produced every step of the way. She also taught me a few things along the way with her background being a business coach consultant. I am now recieving business coaching on a weekly basis, which has helped my business massively. Thank you Francine More...
