MIKE MANDER, HEART SAVER

Our company was two years old when we met Zac. We had been doing well until that point, running with intuition, but we didn’t know how to take it to the next level. In Zac, we found a guiding force that gently pointed out the things we needed to do to make a real difference to our business.

With Zac’s help, we’ve moved from being a husband-and-wife team with 3 employees to an established business with 11 employees and even more contractors. In the past four-and-a-half years our sales have grown six-fold to take us to being a business with a multi-million dollar turnover and a very healthy profit. We’ve taken significant market share and are now considered a major player in our industry. Thanks partly to Zac’s guidance in business, we have won the Westpac Auckland West Business Awards in Strategy & Planning, Emerging Business of the Year and Excellence in Marketing. We still can’t believe the difference Zac and his team have made to our business.

Zac has been there for us every step of the way, whether it’s a late-night phone call to work through some issue or introducing us to key members of his team who have gone on to have a massive impact on our business. His ability to connect us with the right people is magic.

He always has sage advice around what direction to take and what to hone in on in order to become more successful. He quickly identified what we are good at and how we could elevate that to get more clients. Being a husband-and-wife team, we find it invaluable to have an independent voice of reason, too. It has been great to have someone to help us become better leaders too.
