We asked her clients what they would say to someone who was thinking about taking on Jo as their Business Coach. This is what they said......
Good idea - very personable, brings fun to learning - helps you focus and prioritise your needs as you see them (James Townend, West Country Inns Ltd)
Go for it! You’ll learn how to generate more business, improve profits and how to free up your time so you can spend more time working on your business rather than in it. (Gerry Toogood. Toogoods)
If you can afford it – do it. If you can’t afford it – you definitely need to do it! (Geoff Caines. Kingsbridge Loft Conversions)
Be prepared to grow and hear the truth of what you say and do (Paul Ricketts, Boyer Planning)
Definitely do it – Jo has a great manner and brings a lot of value to the business - don't let the cost put you off as the results will more than cover it if you fully commit to the programme (Greg May. Flower Financial)
Jo is extremely thorough and ensures you take responsibility for the work you undertake. (Dan Lowery. Roman Surveyors)
Definitely give it a go. You might be sceptical and nervous (afraid of the unknown) but it is well worth it. (Clare Day. Romans Surveyors)

She encourages business owners to think outside the box, exposing them to areas of their company and to concepts that might not normally be examined.
3) Jo’s career success stems from a strong work ethic, continual learning and her ability to stay focused on the job at hand.

6) As a business owner herself, Jo understands how frustrating being a business owner can be. Working for 14-16 hours a day and driving 1000 miles a week was taking a toll on her life and Jo decided she needed to strike a balance. “In my previous business I was meeting business owners every day, some of which were struggling for survival and most had nowhere to go for help, advice and support and I felt there was a definite need for business coaching”
