    Working with Ros was like a breath of fresh air into my business. Although I was not 100% sure at the beginning of where it would lead or what was expected. The outcome was business changing. I reconnected deeply with my WHY, I am now able to see my business from a new perspective with a vision of where I want it to go. It also provided a platform for enhancing my website, my promotional material and best of all an alignment throughout.

    The Melbourne Seafood Centre first engaged Ros Weadman in 2011. At the time, we required a company with specialist skills to help us liaise with the state government on a significant but delicate matter. Ros came in, assessed our situation and advised us on the best way to move forward. She understood our business, what we wanted to achieve and we got the best results. Since then we have used her a number of times and each time the service has been excellent with positive outcomes.
