Lynne really helped me out of a business slump and outlined clear next steps to build a solid client base. She was straight to the point and simplified my strategy moving forward. Definitely worth booking a call with Lynne if you're a new business owner that feels a bit overwhelmed.

Lynne breaks down finance into such simple terms that even a discalculus number phobic like me can get it. Really clear simple advice that’s easy to grasp and swift to implement. She gets you on track in moments and not a spreadsheet in sight!

This weekend, I attended The Business Builder Retreat, and it was one of the most useful, practical business coaching events I’ve been to. Two days of straight-talking, no-fluff advice aimed specifically at small businesses. Lynne’s method for calculating my business figures completely changed how I think about my numbers – and, importantly, how to pay myself. The guided marketing sessions gave me real clarity on what to focus on, what to do less of, and what can wait. This wasn’t just theory. During the afternoon, with Lynne’s direct guidance and support, I wrote my actual marketing plan. Clear, practical and properly useful. Two days very well spent.

I met Lynne last year and started working with her soon after. I've found (and find) Lynne to be honest, practical and clear. She's made me look at my business in a very different way and helped me with my pricing which has transformed my business. I would definitely recommend working with Lynne.

I can’t thank Lynne enough for the support she’s given for me in my business. Her knowledge on business growth is fantastic, she always has something super helpful to share. Having been on her retreat, attended 1-1 mentoring and being an active member of the business club, I can highly recommend her support. Nothing is too much trouble and she is so generous with her time and knowledge. Thank you Lynne, my business has grown so much since working with you in 2025!

Lynne is straight talking, firm and fair. Her weekly accountability calls are exactly what I need to stay on track, and her retreats are truly amazing! You leave feeling like you can achieve anything, with all the information and encouragement to keep moving. She has a way of simplifying business so you can achieve your goals without the overwhelm.

Just spent the weekend at Lynne’s Business Builder Retreat and it’s been such a great experience. As I haven’t set my own business up properly yet I was unsure how much I’d get out of it but it’s been brilliant and I’ve learnt so much about how to go about setting it up now and what do do and not to do. I will be going about it differently after everything I’ve learnt this weekend. So I’d definitely say it’s not just great for business owners but it’s also incredibly important for those who want to start a business but haven’t yet. Lynne’s knowledge and expertise are so valuable and will give me the best start to building my business and I can’t wait to learn more from her as my business grows.

Lynne is amazing...she simplified all the challenges I had in my business so that I was able to breathe a massive sigh of relief and think straight again. I would massively recommend her to any business owner that is seeking clarity, support and inspiration. She uses her extensive experience to advise and champion in a warm, relatable and engaging way. Thanks Lynne.

I have been a member of the Mastermind within the Business Club for two months and already i have made big changes in the way that i run my business as a result. The Mastermind sessions are structured, focussing on different topics and there is time for each of us to be mentored by Lynne so we are not just listening and learning but truly applying it to our business there and then. There are regular challenges and workshops in the business club which really make you think about what you are doing in your business and what else you could be doing to attract more customers, give more value to your customers and stand out from everyone else. I am now making business decisions based on facts and data (my numbers) and i am clear on what actions i am taking (and not taking) and why and evaluating everything i do. No more guess work or trying things just because other people are doing it. This has saved so much time and energy already. Lynne has the knowledge and experience and a no nonsense, straight forward and hugely supportive approach and i would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to build and grow their business.

I’ve been a member of Lynne's Business Club for a while now, and it has transformed the way I approach my business. A few months ago I joined the Mastermind too within The Business Club with the view to take my business to the next level. By doing it I’ve gained so much clarity around my offer and messaging. One of my biggest breakthroughs was realising I was putting too much focus on growing my group branding sessions, and not enough on promoting my 1:1 work. That shift alone has made a huge difference in how I show up and sell my services. I’ve also refined my ideal client, so I’m now much clearer on who I want to work with and how I can support them. This has made my networking far more intentional and effective. Beyond the practical strategies, the mindset growth has been incredible. I feel more confident in my skills, my value, and in selling my services consistently – without fear of rejection. I’ve developed a stronger CEO mindset, become more resilient when facing challenges, and I’m much more comfortable with my numbers and focusing my time on income-generating activities. Since joining, I’ve also become more consistent with my newsletter, improved my boundaries, and even raised my prices with confidence. I also genuinely love being part of The Business Club. The accountability is invaluable, and the business friendships I’ve made mean so much. It’s such a supportive space where we’re there for each other – whether that’s celebrating wins or navigating challenges. It truly feels like a safe place to grow. I would absolutely recommend The Business Club and the Mastermind too to anyone who wants both strategic support and mindset growth.
