Growth, cultivated.

You know something
isn’t working.
You just can’t tell what.

Hi, I’m Helen. Businesses don’t usually fail to grow - they get tangled in their own weeds. I run businesses too, so I’ll look at the whole thing with you, find what’s really going on, and help you fix it.

Sound familiar?

For business owners who know something isn’t working, have tried a few different things, and are too busy running the business to work out what.

  • I’m spending all my time on admin and not on the work that actually grows my business.

  • I’m stuck on how to get more bookings. I haven’t had to think about it for years because things just worked. Now they don’t.

  • I keep hearing about AI but I have no idea where to start.

  • I hired an agency. I can’t tell if it’s working, but I’m too scared to cancel in case my sales drop.

It’s almost never
just one thing.

What owners ask me for

  • A new website
  • Better ads
  • Someone to take things off my plate

What’s really going on

  • You’re so busy running the business there’s no time to work on it
  • Sales have slowed and you can’t put your finger on why
  • You’ve tried a few fixes. Nothing’s stuck, and you’re not sure what to try next
  • Everything still runs through you, and it’s wearing you down

And if AI feels like a lot, you’re not alone.

Most people haven’t got past asking it to write an email. I’ll show you where it can take real work off your plate, one step at a time.

How I work.

It starts with a call. After that, take what you need and stop whenever it’s enough.

First, a free 30-minute call.

We talk through what’s going on and work out whether I can help. If I can’t, I’ll tell you.
