Arcana Coaching - Client Testimonials
“I met Clive through one of his clients who is doing some work for me. He helped us to set up our contract. His experience and 'can do' attitude make him very easy to work with. It's evident that he has a lot of first hand experience. He is also very generous and willing to do what ever he can to 'grow' business opportunities and business relationships in a meaningful and fruitful way. He puts real heart in to all he does and this makes him totally trustworthy and an asset to any business venture.”
Christine Kimberley - Independent Publisher and Trainer
“Clive is a great person to work/deal with. He is a person that speaks from genuine, practical first hand experiences rather than a collection of ideas gleaned from the latest schools of business thinking.”
Chris Hamilton-Brown - Passion 4 Graphic Design
“Clive was a real asset for us at Wave Leisure and was instrumental in establishing us as a distinct organisation. His marketing and branding knowledge enabled us to quickly create our own brand identity without losing the support of our existing customers - all delivered with his wry sense of humour..!”
Neil Harrison - Operations Director, Wave Leisure
"I should like to thank you for the course you ran yesterday. Having attended many courses in my career, I have to say that this one was perhaps one of the best. You gave dignity back to us all who thought that we were no longer really valued, and made it possible for even the shyest person to become involved. For myself, I had no preconceptions, hoping the course would point out the shortcomings in my approach to start-up (it did) and making helpful suggestions for me to follow up. I came away strangely refreshed, and completely re-enthused – something that after no responses from potential clients after 30 days could have been undermining had I not expected it. Once again my most sincere thanks."
Philip de Leon - 1760+ Associates
"Just a quick note to say thanks once again for our meeting today. Your advice was invaluable and it was good to rattle off all these flying thoughts out of my head in your direction - ha, sorry!"
Kathy Dyton - Proprietor, Pearl & Queenie Jewellery Gallery
"Clive was my first point of contact when considering setting up the business. He has been a great sounding board for my ideas and offered an honest insight into the local area. The networking meetings that he has organised have also been extremely useful for testing the market and meeting suppliers and other local new business people.”
Helen Truman - Proprietor, Plenty Provisions Store
“Thank you for the great effort you have put in helping start-up businesses like me to grow and expand. You have been a bright guiding light in giving helpful and sound advice to people who otherwise would not know where to go with their ideas. A great motivator when times were not full of motive (for me at least) and definitely a spur on and an invaluable mentor who helped me to keep going and stay focused on my business idea.”
Barbara Parise-Browton - Proprietor, Plush Productions (Film & TV)
“Clive is a consummate professional bringing to the task a great amount of help and support, coupled with a relaxed friendly attitude, which I feel assists enormously in encouraging those new to the business world to use their innate and formerly acquired skills, as well as learning new ones.”
Spike Smilgin Humphreys - Proprietor, QOL Cafe & Deli
"The one-to-one sessions have been helpful and invaluable as I have received guidance in researching ways of improving and developing the brochure. For instance, in terms of its marketing and promotion, ideas were discussed on approaching new advertisers and sponsors, how to generate more income and improve the marketing ‘proposal’.
Sophie Mason - Proprietor,
Artwatch Museum & Gallery Guide
“Clive has played an integral and essential role in our business development. Clive has been helping us right from the beginning, and a large part of our success is due to his involvement. Working with Clive has empowered us and given us the confidence to pursue our vision."
