'Fantastic! I now have a clear vision and way forward for the business. As a business owner, just having Darryl's knowledge to steer you on the right track is invaluable. His step by step action plan has given me something I can really stick to rather than my previous methods of flitting from one marketing strategy to another in the hope I get results!'
