"I had been searching for a business coach for years to help me scale my graphic design company. While I found opportunities, I struggled to find someone with experience in every aspect needed to truly grow my business. When I met Rachel, I knew after our first meeting that she had the knowledge and expertise I’d been looking for. I wanted to take my business from a retail pop-up to a nationwide brand, and Rachel shared that vision. Unlike others I had worked with, she was fully committed to my success and passionate about turning my goals into reality—transforming my small business into something that could support my family. She provided weekly calls, filled in the technical gaps I lacked, and introduced essential practices for budgeting and revenue planning. Rachel made sure that with every step of growth, we learned, adapted, and achieved our goals. As a result, we met our annual targets, grew in every metric we tracked, and expanded our apparel business into multiple states.
Now we've started implementing AI in for our social media and other key focus areas. "

"It's been an incredible experience working with Rachel, and her contributions have truly made a lasting impact on Freeman Promotions. Her coaching and team-building initiatives brought a renewed sense of focus and collaboration to our team, which was especially valuable during our transformation last year.
The software development strategies she implemented have streamlined our operations and made a noticeable difference in efficiency, allowing us to focus more on creative and client-centric tasks. The technology and product development strategies she introduced were both innovative and practical, giving us tools that not only fit our current needs but also scale with our growth.
Additionally, her emphasis on fostering a positive culture helped ensure that these changes were embraced enthusiastically across the board. We're grateful for your expertise and look forward to seeing the amazing work you'll continue to do!"
