Testimonials

During Covid Lockdowns, navigating the rapidly changing regulations on workplace directions, permitted worker definitions, COVID safe plans, privacy considerations and vaccination directions was challenging, confusing and a highly stressful period for a business owner. 

Geoff became a trusted point of contact with regular email updates containing links to the most recent workplace directions, web sites and other relevant information that made assessing the businesses obligations much easier. The support Geoff provided was highly valuable and of great assistance. Diamond Stainless and Mariljohn came to rely on Geoff’s emails as the information was on point, concise and highly 
relevant.

Recyclable Packaging was facing increasing competition from overseas competitors and sought assistance through the Entrepreneurs Programme for a strategic review of the business.

Geoff Hodgens worked with Recyclable Packaging to complete a comprehensive review of the business and develop an action plan to address the challenges identified, revitalise our marketing strategy and upgrade the ERP system. Geoff was always well researched and very supportive, in particular during COVID when the world seemed to be imploding and Geoff’s regular check in’s helped stabilise our chosen direction for the mid-to-long term. I would recommend that anyone in business needing external assistance, or even just a second opinion on critical decisions, to reach out to Geoff.
