Nicole keeps you on track, holds you accountable and is always available as a sounding board when problems arise, as a solo business owner this was invaluable. Nicole is also very well networked, so able to recommend solutions and trusted people to assist with other areas of the business. I highly recommend working with Nicole.

I've had the pleasure of working with Nicole for over 1.5 years, and she has truly changed my life—not just on a business level but personally as well. When you're a small business owner, it’s hard to separate the two, and Nicole understands that balance perfectly. When we first started working together, I didn’t realise how little structure I had in place. Nicole guided me through improving my processes, setting KPIs, and building stronger customer relations.Her knowledge and approachable nature made all the difference. She has a way of helping you figure things out on your own, while providing the right guidance along the way. Thanks to her, my business has transformed, and I’ve grown immensely as a person. I can’t recommend Nicole highly enough!

Nicole and Tikumu Consulting is the reason why we are still in business! MASSIVE statement right? These words are a testament to the service, guidance and support Nicole gave me through a pretty tough personal time that had a direct impact on my business Brandstorm. To say she successfully navigated Brandstorm through some great highs and epic lows is a understatement. Brandstorm invested in monthly coaching, support and development for almost a year.

Nicole took us back to the beginning, stripped out why we are in business and then helped develop a plan to kickstart and revive Brandstorm, holding us accountable for monthly objectives that help us grow, not only financially but personally. We are super excited to offer this insight and can’t speak more highly about Nicole… LOVE your work and we look forward as always to our continued working relationship.

Right from the start you made it clear to me that this was my process, and while you would be there to coach, mentor and support me, I had to drive the process and own it. You used many different tools and strategies that all helped in different ways. But the best thing you did was to encourage me to take the time to reflect about me. My life, and what I was doing with it and where I wanted to be. Through your gentle but firm questioning you encouraged me to reflect a little deeper about why I do the things I do, and why I don’t do somethings that I should do.

Working with Nicole has opened up my mind to the possibilities that exist when it comes to setting up a small business. Nicole’s coaching style really matched with my learning style, and that’s what helped me grow and learn in an area that is new to me. Each session is thorough, and followed up with an email to confirm the thoughts and ideas from the session. Nicole uses business tasks to keep you focused on your immediate priority, at the same time allowing you to cement the intricate details of your business, as well as reflect on decisions that need to be made. Working with Nicole has been eye opening; she has believed in me and my idea since day one, and that alone has inspired me to keep going, even when I thought I couldn’t. Nicole is thoughtful, helpful, and considerate. Thank you for your professionalism, your confidence, and your honesty.

Nicole’s people skills and her ability to provide inputs to project teams are of the highest order, and she always exhibits unquestionable integrity and work ethic, which made for a trusting and highly productive relationship

Nicole is such a talented business coach with a perfect combination of qualities and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is professional, sincere, warm and does an amazing job of listening to you and therefore being able to tailor her coaching services to ensure that you meet the objectives she helps you to define. I have come away from my series of sessions feeling so much lighter, more focused, with some direction and excitement about the path ahead. Thank you Nicole!

I recently worked with Nicole as a coach for my business. Before this I did wonder why people would actually use a business coach, now I know why. Nicole has helped be set goals, stay focused on what needed to be done and kept me on track. Whether a start up or growing business Nicole has a superb skillset to help you on your journey to excellence. It is easy to get overwhelmed when in business but having Nicole allowed me to remove the clutter and stay grounded. Highly recommend Nicole as a business coach at any stage of your business.

Getting a business coach was the best decision I have ever made for my business. When I contacted Nicole I had no idea what to expect and didn’t really understand how she would be able to help me. I had all these ideas and I thought I had a good grip on what I was doing but still felt like I was getting nowhere. Nicole helped me understand how my business works, how I can take what I want my business to look like and actually make it happen. I had no idea what my financial where doing and if you had asked my how much money I was making my answer would have been I don’t know. Now I can look at my business and know exactly what I need to do, exactly where I need to improve and how. She showed and taught me how to run my business to the fullest.

I have never been so happy and never been so organised in my life. I actually have time to spend with my family and I am able to separate my work life and my personal life. I never feel overwhelm with my work as I now plan everything and know exactly what has to be done when. Nicole has really saved my business and has really allowed me to see that I can make something of this and that I can reach my goals. I cannot recommend Nicole more!!!!

I highly recommend Nicole especially if you are stuck, feel lost and have no idea what the next step is to take. During my first session with Nicole I was in tears of frustration. After just a few sessions I finally felt a weight lift off of my shoulders and gained clarity which enabled me to take the next step in my life with confidence. I feel this huge sense of empowerment and have developed confidence in who I am and what it is I want in life. I absolutely could not have achieved this with out Nicole’s guidance and support.
