"Shelley is an excellent mentor and business coach, and working with her has been a very rewarding and invaluable experience in terms of repositioning our business for positive growth. Not only did she guide us in our thinking processes but also allowed us to realise the potential in exciting new areas we have not previously explored."

"It was brilliant to work with Shelley, exploring what would be required to franchise my business. Her experience was invaluable, making the process of mapping how such a franchise would work quicker and more painless than I could have imagined. Plus, she's great fun and a pleasure to deal with!"

“I attended one of Shelley's morning workshops and got loads of good advice on not only starting a business but venturing into a franchising market. I thought the workshop was informative, up to date and professional, leaving me with appropriate advice to take the next step.”

Marijke Moriarty

You have taken the fear away for me and I think it has more to do with your knowing more about the topic than the topic itself! Once upon a time ‘franchising’ wasn’t an option for me, purely because it frightened me and I was ignorant about it. You have made it a personal journey for me in developing my business..so it is now not only achievable, but also exciting. Thank you Shelley!

“Shelley’s knowledge on the subject encompasses the bigger picture and the attention to detail. She gives decisive specialist advice which is cost-effective and yet priceless. I am more confident in my franchise business planning with her help."

"Shelley has a keen interest on the impact of business modelling on both the owner and the team employed. With the strength of her hands-on experience in having managed a high-end franchise network in London, she has the ability to not only empathise with the franchisor, but also the franchisee. She provides great content in her delivery of workshops, and still manages to keep the specialised guidance both practical and tangible for any attendee."

I delivered franchising workshops for Exemplas Ltd as part of initiatives in the North East and East of England to educate the public on the different routes to entrepreneurship.

“As part of a day long programme for newly International Postgraduate Students at The University of Northampton Business School, Shelley delivered a workshop on the Franchising business model, aimed at encouraging the entrepreneurial spirit. The workshop centered on explaining how franchising worked and illustrated how students could go about setting up and running their own franchising businesses, either on behalf of a UK based outfit or back in their home countries; predominantly China and India. I enjoyed the workshop myself and felt the content really opened my eyes to franchise model."
