"Everyone Loves These Pies - What Can I Do?"
From Pub Pie to 200k Order
A man sat in front of me with a pie on a sheet of greaseproof paper. “We make these pies in our pub and everyone loves them – what can I do?”
We helped him with many parts of the business including labelling and packaging, turning that pie into a real business. 18 months later he came in to tell me he had just received an order from one company for 200,000 pies.

"I'd Love an Online Business and Not Spend My Days in Here"
From Shop Owner to World Traveller
Walked into a shop where the owner said “I would love to have an online business and not have to spend my days in here. I tried before and failed.”
We helped her not only run the shop but build a business that gave her freedom. She was eventually able to sell and spend her time traveling – her dream.

Starting a Children's Nursery Where Everyone Said It Couldn't Work
Nursery in a Competitive Area
A lady approached us wanting to start a children’s nursery in a competitive area. We helped her define the core principles of her business, design her website, logo, staff uniforms and signage.
We created a setup where all enquiries were handled through her site including enrolments, helped her find staff and promote the business. That was 10 years ago and they’re now a landmark business.

"I've Got a Field, Not Much Spare Time - Can I Create Something That Just Runs Itself?"
The Self-Running Dog Walking Field
A call from a man who said “I’ve got a field, not much spare time – can I create a place where people can walk their dogs and it just runs itself?”
We helped him with a website, simple booking system, defined the rules, helped with domain name, logo, graphics – making that idea into a business that mostly runs itself.

What These Stories Actually Show
These aren’t success stories in the traditional sense – they’re just examples of people who had an idea and needed help figuring out how to make it work.
No massive funding required.
The pie business started with one pie on greaseproof paper. The dog field was just a field and an idea.
Real problems, practical solutions.
Each person had a specific challenge. We helped them work through the practical stuff – the packaging, the systems, the websites, the logistics.
Sustainable businesses that actually work.
These businesses are still running because they were built on solid foundations, not hype or unrealistic projections.
Success looks different for everyone.
For one person it was a huge order. For another it was freedom to travel. For the nursery owner it was building something lasting in her area.
The common thread? People with genuine ideas who just needed someone to help them think it through and make it real.
