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!

Within a very short time of working with Nicole, she had shown herself as an associate of unwaveringly consistent high levels of integrity, discretion and collaboration. Nicole is someone who will always hold a space of respect for those she engages with, whilst being able to hold her boundaries. These attributes are priceless in any organisation.

WOW! Nicole works wonders!

She has a "knack" of pulling out all the "stuff" in your head and helping you formalise it. She has so many suggestions, ways of organising and making sense of your goals, plans and how to go about “making it happen”.

I felt comfortable with her easy manner, professionalism and great communication. I would highly recommend her.

Prior to my time working with Nicole, I had tried several different business programs that all promised the same result – increased sales. However, when it came to implementing their top technique to achieve sales, I failed miserably every time. Cold calling had never been my area of expertise, this all changed however when I started working with Nicole of Tikumu Consulting. In our regularly sessions, Nicole unpacked the art of discovery of what I either as Chartered Accountant or Business Advisor should be asking prospective client as open ended questions in order that I put them at ease and feel that their problems are not unique but by working together they would come out with both a healthier business but also more fully informed

Now 3 months on from our original coaching session, my mindset towards cold calling has shifted and my approach to undertaking a cold call feels a lot more authentic, which has resulted in an increase in sales turnover.

Throughout the process Nicole was encouraging, patient and always willing to offer alternative approaches to reach an outcome that I was comfortable to adopt.

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.

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.

I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone who is seeking a coach who is highly professional and skilled. Nicole is very creative and accommodating; and, she knows exactly what techniques and skills to apply to bring out the best in you. She creates a safe environment where you can have meaningful conversations and walk away feeling confident and enriched. Furthermore, she easily puts you in a comfortable zone where you can gain clarity and structure in your thought process -- in order to develop yourself into a focused and better version of yourself. Each session with her has been positively beneficial and insightful.
