Corinne Bascombe of I_am_hair highly recommends Colbea's Business Advisory Service which provided her with:

"support from the time when my shop I_am_hair was only an idea....I would not be in the position I am in now if it were not for Liz Kelly.  Her unrelenting determination and enthusiastic drive is what I aspire to have, to become the type of business women she is....I am extremely satisfied and happy that Liz Kelly is my business advisor as otherwise my business would still be a dream instead of being over a year old."

"I took on board all that you said, re-jigged my plan and got to know my figures inside out. I was somewhat hazy at the time, but the realisation that I needed to get to know these properly made me look at and understand them a lot better than I did. I wanted to thank you for that meeting and the advice because today my bank have agreed to back my venture and I have identified another business opportunity.

Thank you. Following our meeting I have achieved what I set out to do."
