Rima Bray

Business Owner

My experience working with Shilpa has been nothing but beneficial. 

With any kind of coaching, it is a work in progress, but Shilpa is very focused on her approach. She focuses on looking at a business in an objective way so that we can improve by doing what is best for the company itself, instead of in an emotional way. However, emotion is not disregarded by Shilpa as she knows the importance of personality in a business. 

Shilpa talks about the 80% to 20% rule: 20% of your effort creates 80% of your revenue. It is all about tweaking things and being aware of the precious time you have. It’s about looking at the small incremental things and how those can build up over time, like the compound effect. 

When it comes to clients, Shilpa teaches the importance of getting more leads, having more conversations, and having more transactions. She emphasises the need to be relational with clients in order to build trust and loyalty so that they are lifelong clients.

It is difficult to accelerate this process, but Shilpa has provided me with the courage and boldness to do so,having happier customers and a higher profit. 

Getting more leads and talking to more people leads to more conversations and more sales. 

My goal is to have more multiservice customers and customers to add to their services, and to make them satisfied along the way. Because at the end of the day, it is about the client- making them happy and doing what is best for them. 

Shilpa has taught me valuable business lessons that I am implementing currently in my business and will continue to do so. I am always eager to learn more from her.

If someone were to say, “you know your Onions” – what does that mean to you…

Well I can safely say that Shilpa definitely knows her onions…Shilpa understands all the layers of business – the ones that make you cry and the sweet taste of success; when you are doing well – and most importantly how to get you from a crying position in your business to a well nurtured and seasoned business.

I was on a course delivered by Shilpa who helped understand the number of facets to a business and what makes it a success, from a simple up sell, cross sell or down sell – to the messaging on your marketing collateral – messaging that will resonate with the right type of customer that your business needs to achieve teh success you desire.

Shilpa is pragmatic, teaches you to be realistic and most importantly holds your hand firmly whilst she takes you on a journey towards success.

I highly recommend Shilpa.

Agency Owner

Shilpa has been instrumental in turbo-boosting the agency’s business performance by improving our efficiencies up to 20% across all our divisions

18 months ago, the business would have probably stayed dormant because we didn’t have a business coach, new thinking, plans to work towards and then regularly accountability to ensure that the plans are implemented.

We achieved these amazing results thanks to their efficient implementation of new cash, recruitment and operational systems.

Shilpa has helped us to upgrade our business to scale to over £3m in the next 18 months and are on track to make 22% profit from 16% previously. Our marketing is much more focused and targeted and Shilpa has encouraged us to understand the KPI’s which has lead to a big upgrading in our business operation.

Each session, I take away new ideas and processes to implement and action. Do this…and your business can do nothing but grow. It’s not always easy but it does produce the results!

Agency Owner, London

I enlisted Shilpa – business coach about 6 months ago and it has completely changed the trajectory of my company.

I was at a point where I felt completely drained, both physically and mentally, and was slowly losing my sense of purpose.

In recruitment you can burn out fast if you do not have structures, processes and work in balance.

My coach immediately recognised that what I needed was to shift my mindset. She then took me through a series of exercises to help change the way I think.

I can now be more present for my team and work with Shilpa to take the business to another level, my dreams are becoming a reality.

The biggest lesson that I learnt was that we needed to build a sales and marketing machine to generate consistent and predictable sales and profit.

We did this with Shilpa in the first 6 months and saw our business sky rocket fast. She is a marketing genius and we can’t wait to see what the next 6 months bring.

DIGITAL AGENCY OWNER

We worked with Shilpa on her 12 month agency programme. We wanted to scale our business but were unsure of how to and how to deal with taking on more employees and finding new clients. In 12 months our business grew over 32%, even during the pandemic. Shilpa worked with us to formulate strategies, helped us to find new markets and even supported us in creating a new sales & pitch process. We worked all across the business, systems, processes, KPI’s and putting in a new team. One week we had 8 new clients. Wish we had met Shilpa earlier in our business journey, she is smart, with deep pockets of knowledge and a great all round business coach.

Shilpa has an uncanny ability to be able to spot viable business opportunities. She instinctively knows what works and what doesn’t. If you want to develop a strategy or create a vision of how you want your business to grow then you need Shilpa’s help.

Here resourcefulness and considerable business knowledge, particularly in marketing, are second to none.

I am grateful for her support and guidance. She has challenged me a stretched my performance beyond what I thought possible.

James Brady

James Brady

CEO & Co - Founder

We chose to work with Shilpa to support and grow our my business because of the sheer diversity and depth of her experience and knowledge. We were confident that she would bring those qualities above other coaches. 

We have saved money and time working with her and she is a lot of fun too. 

Shilpa worked very closely with us like a trusted partner and brought her network of top high performing suppliers which made all the difference in building our business and achieving our goals. This was an added bonus that we didn’t expect but really appreciated. 

Shilpa was fully instrumental in getting our online presence launched and active for us to make £23k in our first month only ! Her skills in digital are very well honed, together with her creative and business focused mind. Without her in our business we would have gone bust during Covid. 

Shilpa is a lady you can trust and I would recommend her to anyone who wishes to grow their business, find new sectors or be better leaders.

I worked with Shilpa as my coach for a period of 12 months to look at our business and the challenges it was facing, Her understanding of our business was excellent, her creativity and marketing skills are great. She really made us understand where the dips were in our business, what strategies we could use and how we could be smarter and more efficient in our business. Her knowledge in digital marketing really helped us increase our incoming leads which we were then able to convert with her coaching arounds sales and client retention. She is a very good consultant to have on board, we are glad that we committed the time and highly recommend using her.
