Build the business of your dreams:
More Time, More Money, More Freedom
‘If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.’
When you first contact me, you’ll no doubt be clear about the challenges your business faces. But you may be unsure about how best to tackle those challenges. That’s where you can draw on my experience.
Coaching and consulting have the same purpose: to help you achieve your goals. I provide both services and, if you’re not sure which is best for you, we can discuss this at our first meeting.
Business Coaching: I help you develop your business management skills, so you learn how to solve your business challenges. I have a dual focus: you and your long-term goals.
Consulting: You delegate one of your business challenges to me to sort out. My focus is the business problem, rather than you are personally.
Sometimes it’s a mix of both. You ask me to troubleshoot an urgent issue while we also start out on the coaching process.
The Problem: As a small business owner, you’re stretched thin. Costs are rising, finding good staff feels impossible, and you’re so busy working in the business that you have no time to work on it. You know there’s a better way, but you can’t see the path forward—and traditional business coaching seems like a luxury you can’t afford.
Our Solution: A transformative 12-month coaching program designed for your budget. I’ll be your guide, helping you build the skills, systems, and strategic focus to manage your business effectively, not just tirelessly. For less than the cost of a daily coffee, you get direct access to proven tools and support.
We start by discussing your goals and the issues you face. What you’d like to get from your business and what’s standing in the way. We look at the options for bringing about change and set a 90-day action plan.
Here’s How We’ll Get You Results:
Real change takes consistent effort. We work in 90-day sprints, with a quarterly review to adapt your plan. Most clients see early wins within 60-90 days, with profound shifts in management capability over 12 months.
Just $100/month (plus GST) on a flexible month-to-month basis.
No long-term lock-in contract.
Business Coaching is an investment that usually begins to pay off immediately and will continue paying off over the lifespan of the business.
This is because everything you learn today will continue to apply in the future.
So, if you qualify - and do the work (attending sessions and completing agreed-upon actions)
I offer a guarantee.
After 12-months of training, if you don't get a return on the investment (ROI) equal to what you've invested in the coaching. I will work with you free of charge until that is the case.
I highly recommend speaking with Ian. His insight and experience are valuable and he's great at helping you realise the solutions you need for the challenges you face as well as holding you to account in driving your business forward.

Since working with Ian in September 2022, the company has continued to go from strength to strength. The team has grown, and a structure formulated along with a plan of attack for business growth. Ian is there with firm guidance and his approval, or in some cases, "wise" disagreement with what paths I consider to take. I value his input immensely considering his own business history to date. Ian in my opinion is someone who has been there and got the t-shirt so enables me to take the decisions, without making the mistakes that I have over the last 4 years, albeit good lessons learnt. I don't see my relationship with Ian being short term, but to play a significant part in its growth over the next few years. I would thoroughly recommend getting a business coach/mentor and that using Ian of Terrafirma would be a great choice.

Ian from Terrafirma was excellent. He took the time to understand my business and gave me a 90-day tailored action plan to get the ball rolling on our business growth. Highly recommend!
