Case Study: Interior Designer Bridget Desroches
My client Bridget took the time to answer a few questions about her experience working with me as a business coach, and the results she achieved for her business. Read the interview below:
What made you decide to work with Hanneke?
I was recommended to Hanneke by a trusted friend/colleague in my industry that had heard a lot about her and read her book. Once I scheduled a meeting with Hanneke and knew at that point, I needed the business guidance; I quickly decided to move forward with the process as I was eager to make the necessary improvements to my growing business.
How has working with Hanneke helped you improve your systems/team management?
Hanneke is a straight shooter, which is exactly what I needed. As a business owner sometimes, there are small details you miss or procedures that need to be redefined, and having someone like Hanneke that will tell you exactly what to do and how to make those changes despite hurting your ego is refreshing. Its business not personal but she has a way of breaking it down, so you understand why she’s pushing you and that she believes in you and your business, and the results are game changers.
What's been some of the most significant business and leadership benefits/results you've experienced from working with Hanneke thus far?
Hanneke has helped me stop making excuses because certain things haven’t been refined or addressed in my business. She held me accountable and reminds me of the goals I set out to reach. Working with Hanneke has given me extra time saving tools to run my business more efficiently and invest in things that have helped my business grow.
Tangible results attained while working with Hanneke:
- Clearly identifying an assistant role with interview, hiring, and training documentation. Hanneke also provided templates to create SOPs easily, along with employee review templates to manage employee seamlessly.
- Clarity on consultation session pricing and marketing materials to attract higher-end clients.
- A deeper understanding of business finances with a clear strategy to manage cash flow and funds better.
- Hanneke also suggested a better CRM system that Bridget implemented to help onboard clients faster and get contracts signed quicker.
Bridget is now more organized and poised to attract higher-paying clients, with strategic systems and marketing materials in place to support the growth of her business.
Why would you recommend that business owners invest in working with Hanneke?
I would recommend Hanneke because she truly cares about watching you succeed. I found myself informing her of wins that were getting me to my goal because of her guidance and I was excited to share that information with her because I know it’s a win for her as well and her enthusiasm is infectious!
