“I got in touch with Sarah to help sense check my idea for a luxury camping business with a focus on branding and marketing.
I found Sarah to be a wealth of knowledge and I suspect that the short time we spent together has saved me some costly and time consuming mistakes down the line.
All of my questions were answered including the ones I didn't know I should be asking. I would highly recommend getting in touch with Sarah at any stage of your project life cycle but especially during the initial phases where the project direction and delivery approach are both crucial to making sure your project gets off the ground."

As someone whose businesses are closely connected to the tourism industry, being able to tap in to Sarah’s knowledge and experience has proven to be invaluable.

Whether it relates to marketing, current or upcoming trends, financials or practical help, Sarah has always given sound, informed and considered advice and I could not recommend her business support highly enough.”

“In 2016 I had the good fortune to meet Sarah Riley from Inspired Camping. She turned up at the perfect moment. I had just bought a piece of land and had an idea to make it into a campsite.
I had a rough idea where to start but needed some serious help. You don't meet GLAMPING Experts everyday - but I did. Sarah's knowledge and contact base was GOLDEN.
With a background in business coaching, some heavy organisational skills and a major chunk of empathy I immediately commissioned Sarah to help me write not just one but X 2 business plans for both areas of the 43 acre slate quarry I had just bought.
We looked at every aspect from planning advice and direct contact to topographical surveys, site visits, land management, access, plantation of my GLAMPING cabins, off grid facilities, insurance, budgeting on project management, cash flow and marketing.
Setting up a campsite is no mean feat believe me. I had this amazing route in with Sarah. There's a soft level of support too, she can download your needs and desires and turn them into a possibility. Timing can be KEY, having top level support like this was worth its weight. I could ask direct question and get direct answers.
Sarah is still on board with my project KUDHVA. She's a regular go to for us. Having been in the industry since its inception she can quickly drill down your needs. I feel that I got seriously lucky without her KUDHVA would not have been born. "

“Before starting this Masterclass… I had a plan to use social media to promote my business because I followed your business startup plan but was lacking information to take action properly.
Now… I’m more confident that I can do a lot by myself and the course give me the knowledge I needed to know what I need to do. I also feel that I want to put effort into my marketing instead of delegating it entirely. Before the course I was afraid of the unknown and did not want to put the effort because of that.
I know I still have to put a lot of effort to get where I want to be but I’m not afraid anymore. I know I will get result using what you have shared in the course.
If someone is in the same situation I was, I would highly recommend considering your course.”
