Testimonials
"Since working with Geoff the management team has become a lot more focused and ready to tackle any problem that we stumble across. We have managed to sort out various staffing issues that were problems in the past but no longer pose a threat to our operation. Our team has gone from a good team to a great team. We are currently revising our whole operation and are making inroads toward a more successful business whereby we are able to work less hours and make more money."

"After attending your workshop last night together with two of my associates and then discussing it together this morning, I must tell you there was unanimous agreement that the workshop had been very beneficial. We look forward to the opportune time for you to conduct another workshop with a much a much larger group of our team members attending."

"I started working with Geoff Flemming of Business Transformations 9 months ago. Today my business is unrecognisable. Geoff has guided me over the rocky path of transforming my business into one that is now a business and I cannot thank him enough for his faith, encouragement and persistence. His belief in me and my abilities helped me make the changes that needed to be made, it was very painful at times although seeing the results as I pushed through the pain barriers was so exciting, and it was and still is worth the effort. Today my business runs smoothly, my staff knows what to do and they do it. I can think clearly, I'm working smarter and I have a space in my life and in my head to take my business to the next level. Thank you Geoff, I am brimming with gratitude and praise for your program, I am honoured to write this testimonial and to recommend your services, well done for creating such a worthwhile and needed business."
Dina Matters - Diamond Contours Clinic, Adelaide
"We began working with Geoff of Business Transformations about twelve months ago. Little did we know that what would follow would be the driest twelve months on record in the Melbourne metro area? Geoff was instrumental in assisting us to build a more robust and systematic approach to franchise sales and also assisted in building what we have called a “Superjims” maintenance program for franchisee’s regular customers. These changes have assisted drought proofing the business and maintaining our position ready for this coming spring. In addition Geoff’s assistance was a major reason for our business being voted “The Best Franchisor Award” in all three categories within Jims Corporation. Jims Corp has over 28 divisions and hundreds of Franchisors. So a big thank you to Geoff who has been enthusiastic, dynamic and creative, true to his word and assisted my team in starting to make the changes whilst having some fun as well."
Garry & Gabi Hardingham-Jims Mowing Franchisor of the Year 2006/2007
"We started working with Geoff Fleming some 2 years ago to assist with leadership and management of one office. Geoff took us through the basics of the need for a more systematic approach to our professional, administrative and financial processes. With Geoff’s assistance we have evolved into a business of four offices blending the cultures of the offices and putting in place a systematic approach to dealing with issues and building a high performance team.
Sessions with the partners and with the whole staff have given us all an understanding of the concepts of “critical non-essentials”, office protocols and a sense of team and teamwork in offices spread across the south eastern suburbs.
We now have an emphasis on leadership rather than just management and a systematic approach to problem solving that encourages not just the owners of the business to participate but all employees."
Ann Gambetta – CEO – South East Lawyers Pty Ltd
"Geoff . . . your impact has been tremendous. As a business coach, you have helped me focus on my restaurant plan, prioritise my activities, think with clarity (my favourite word by the way!) and become much more efficient. From a personal coaching perspective, you have been a fantastic sounding board, and you have helped me understand issues from many different perspectives. You have gently but firmly pushed me when I needed it most, and that has made a world of difference in both the personal and professional aspects of my life."
Terry Soukoulis - Auge Ristorante - Adelaide, SA
"As a new owner in a business Geoff was able to put together the relevant systems and knowledge required for me to run my business. Geoff Flemming was extremely professional in our relationship going above and beyond what was expected. I now have the confidence and ability to grow my business with the principles instilled in me. I recommend Geoff to anyone with confidence."
Con Stamatopoulos - Hairhouse Warehouse
"Working with Geoff was very rewarding. It highlighted where we were succeeding, which does give you a sense of pride. More importantly, it also showed up the shortcomings and equipped me to address and deal with them. I have now a much greater focus on building a successful business model that I believe will outlast me. Geoff has provided me with the tools and equipped me to deal with the growth. There is no miracle cure or final destination and at times it is two steps forward and one step back, but at all times I have a better sense of controlling our destiny and understand what I need to do to sustain the growth."
Mike Tuzee - Impact Events
"Geoff is helping me to create processes and action plans to be followed by myself and my staff. We have set up communication processes, measures of accountability and review processes. Geoff does this in a very logical and sensible way by breaking down the required process or system into small or simple steps to be followed. Importantly he is also helping me create a sense of “team” in our office. This has made a wonderful difference to staff attitudes and work output. Everyone seems to genuinely enjoy their time at work now. I highly recommend Geoff and Business Transformations. He has been of enormous assistance to our business."
Mark Edwards - Port Philip Financial Group Pty. Ltd.
"Firstly, Geoff is a top bloke to do biz with. He has helped our salon in a big way, we have always had a good salon, but he has taught us how to be “OWNERS”. These days I feel like we are getting the answers to the questions that would keep me up at night. Such as, how to have staff work more consistently, how to keep key staff happy and how to grow profit. Geoff has taught us that the answers are easier to find by making the time to do some strategic planning rather that cutting hair 60 hours a week. Now we are developing a CULTURE amongst our staff that reflects the type of salon we want. “Geoff is the MAN.” Start with him yesterday."
Roger Todaro - Todaro Salon
"Geoff has been very good to work with everything he does and every step he takes you through is common sense .He explains himself very well and takes you through the process providing more than adequate explanations along the way. He keeps you motivated all the time with phone calls and little reminders without encroaching on your actual work time. Almost 12 months on and the change within our workplace is enormous. We have improved in every facet of the business. Communication within our organization is at an all time high, our staff are much happy with their conditions of employment and there is a real buzz around the place. I have already recommended Geoff to another company and would have no hesitation in doing it again."
Graham Burgen - CEO - Oxford Chemicals
"Geoff, just a brief note to allow me to pass on my sincere thanks for the guidance and confidence that you have instilled in both me and the team. I was so far in the trenches working 80 -90 hours a week I couldn’t even scratch myself. Since being involved with Business Transformations I have been able to find clarity in my work, working towards a set of goals and fulfilling them, working less hours and all the team heading in the right direction. We are working smarter, with greater team involvement resulting in an “I love coming to work” attitude."
David A Barker - Lockbar Steel and Aluminium
"It was clear where we needed to focus to bring the company to the level that was required to continue to be a market leader and to turn the profits that we were expecting. Communication was another aspect that Geoff implored us to improve with an immediate impact. It is how Geoff gets his message across that I have been comfortable with. The message is always concise and backed up with a common sense approach. It has certainly been a worthwhile business program for the Gills Group to follow. The results have been there to see!"
Paul Roach - Director – Gills Nurseries
