The great advances made in the first year of coaching has been greatly overshadowed by the gains of the past year. Our revenue has grown by 64% at Frankston and 49% at Chelsea and between the two clinics we have already reached the budget forecasts that were put in place for the next two to three years.

I own a small building company and was typically trudging through each job just making ends meet at best. My thought process was that whilst I have small children, this was the best way that I can keep to my own schedule and be able to be there for my family…And it was working….. Unfortunately it wasn’t working for the company, the bank accounts or my stress levels.

From that day our business has steadily moved forward with Ray’s positive attitude every step of the way, taking us on a journey through the setting up of marketing to the finer points of systemizing our business.

We have employed your services for some 2 & ½ years and I am delighted to provide my testimony here that others may consider the benefits; both in their business and their personal lives.

In a business sense, through this time we have adopted measures and processes which give our business the strength to manage the day to day stresses of everyday activity yet still allowing us to focus on the things that make our business grow

Ray’s insight into personality types has been particularly fascinating, and hugely valuable in training our staff. He educated us in a relaxed way, showing us the importance of personal and career goals. Since working with Ray, I have changed the way that I think about so any things. Now we are not worker harder, just smarter.

I was the classic example of the technician pushing the boundaries of my work ethic and then also attempting to manage staff, oversee the financials, produce effective marketing and attempt to live a life. Ray has helped me with so many aspects but the two that will always stick with me are learning to manage your time to focus on the truly important things (and they may not be what you think they are) and learning how to create organised structure.

I was not that keen to employ ‘yet another business coach’ who was going to help us ‘turn our businesses around’ but Ray’s manner was kind, considerate and more importantly, very perceptive to OUR needs. I did not feel that I would be a notch on his ladder of success.

Furthermore my personal growth, of which I am also aware of myself, has been commented upon by many people. It has been a period of growth for Aquarius Pools with one of the highlights being winner of Pool of the Year in 2012 & two National Awards in that same year. Neither the business and personal growth nor the awards would have been possible without your professional involvement.

In our fortnightly meetings Ray has provided a sounding board, framework and structure to give us the confidence to put systems in place to grow our business.
