ROOTED FOR

BUSINESS SUCCESS?

Welcome to THE GREENHOUSE.
I'm Rachel Flower and this is my 3-month online group programme to transform business seedlings into blooming brilliant sunflowers.

You want accountability. Know-how. Connection & Community. Shortcuts and hacks, slowing down to speed up. Confidence that your plans are robust so you can implement with gusto.

Sounds good, right?

Great. You're in the right place. 

READY ALREADY? LET'S TALK

LET'S PLANT THOSE SEEDS TO SCALE

As an ambitious business owner, you've quickly come to realise that this entrepreneur malarky is not a walk in the park. You've set out to build a solid business which is scaleable and set on strong foundations.

Yet now that you're up and running, your time seems to have been sucked into a hamster wheel of sales, servicing clients and customers, endless admin and tech issues, keeping on top of the numbers & being bombarded with stuff you're *meant* to be doing. 

The Greenhouse is here to give you the space and the clarity you need. It's perfect for you if:

  • You've been in business for a while and achieved a good level of success. But this has led to a myriad of responsibilities and a struggle to keep on top of everything. 

  • You became an entrepreneur to get a better quality of life, yet you seem to be working more hours than in your 9-5. [And earning less. What?!!]

  • It's a constant uphill slog to keep on top of new streams of revenue. You want to automate but you also love connection, and then some days you just want to hide away from all the noise. 

  • The bits you loved about being an entrepreneur - freedom, independence, creating and innovating - are too often replaced by mundane tasks and pockets of nasty stress. 

  • You're not afraid of hard work - in fact you thrive on it. But without a robust plan in place you're struggling to prioritise.

  • You feel stuck and frustrated...so many ideas, too little time. Annoyed for not moving fast enough yet too tired to speed it up right now.

I get it. 

After a career in the law and a stint as  Commercial Director, I became an entrepreneur in 2009 and built my own business - a niche legal consultancy - to almost 7 figures in revenue. THE GREENHOUSE has been specifically created because I know first hand how hard it is to find the right support to grow and scale. I'm here to share my lessons on business growth, and to give you that much needed boost of clarity and direction which will power you onwards and upwards.

By the end of our 3 months, you'll have a robust business plan, the confidence to get out there and deliver it, and a solid foundation for growth. 

In the warmth of THE GREENHOUSE, you'll get expert training & support from me - a "been there done it" commercial mentor who's helped hundreds of businesses to grow. You'll join a like minded peer group to cheer you on (and up), and practical tools and techniques to short cut your way to success.

It's a safe space to get really clear on your business direction and strongly rooted for your future success. And importantly to bring fun, enthusiasm and excitement into the journey. 

Are you ready? If it's time for you & your business to grow up and bloom, then step on in. 

HOW WOULD IT FEEL TO BE EMPOWERED FOR GROWTH?

You can be. 3 months from now...

In THE GREENHOUSE you'll join a group of established business owners who have already experienced brilliant success but have ended up stuck and needing to step back and re-focus. Together we'll focus on how to create consistent 6figure revenue, how to scale and grow on strong foundations, how to stay strongly rooted and able to weather the inevitable storms. 

By the end of your time in THE GREENHOUSE you'll have:

  • a solid roadmap to get you to the next level, so you feel empowered and able to prioritise and focus;
  • the confidence to move forward, so you jump out of bed each day excited to get to work;
  • clear guidance on how to legally protect your brand and assets - knowing you're building value in your business day by day;
  • knowledge of how to generate consistent sales, boost your revenue levels, manage your cash flow and stay on top of the numbers like a true boss;
  • the ability to cultivate a loyal customer base with authentic ways to market and get visible, so you feel full of integrity & purpose;
  • a cheerleading squad at your side, so you're never alone whether to celebrate or overcome a new challenge.

Here is THE GREENHOUSE

A 3-month business growth online programme for ambitious business owners, just like you - with big hearts, big dreams and big determination. Check out the modules below.

GETTING STUCK IN

Getting to know each other, sharing our hopes, dreams and aspirations for our lives and businesses. Looking at all that is good and bad about entrepreneurship and sharing what lessons we've learnt to date. This is your safe place and these are your peers. Together we grow. 

GROUNDWORK

Down and dirty, we'll review your business right now. Laying the roots for growth. We'll make sure you've got clarity on your offerings, your pricing, your position in the market and check that we've got raving clients, customers, collaborators and cash-generators. Where there are gaps, we're going to commit to action. 

GENIUS

You are Genius. Deep down you know that. So let's make sure you've nailed this in your offerings. What is it that makes you and your business special and set for success? We'll put it front and centre because people buy from people and every product or service tells its own story. Through YOU. 

GRAVITAS

We're unblocking all the fears, doubts and insecurities which are holding you back from growth. They're going to have come up in the last module so let's dig 'em out and kill 'em off. It's time to own this, step into your power, raise your vibes and get your CEO cape on. One of the magic of group programmes is having others to believe in you even when you don't. 

GRIT

We'll explore the barriers to growth for small businesses and how we can proactively overcome them. We'll learn tried and tested techniques and tools and simplify existing processes. You need tenacity and determination to succeed in business BUT with the right preparation and support, any storm can be weathered. 

GUSTO

Time to show up. You're going to get visible, step up the marketing of your products/ services, and get out of your own way. You'll be positioning yourself - and your product or service - as the go-to solution in your niche. Energy and enthusiasm in abundance as you venture out into the sunshine. 

GROWTH

Voila, now you're equipped with all the tools for growth. Time to set some ambitious goals and a short term plan for consistent action using my brilliant "Business Boost Roadmap". Armed with this and your newfound confidence, you've finally got a clear path forward and clarity of direction. 

GOLD

Great business owners are on top of their numbers. Cash flow is king, and this final module will plot out what you need for a successful trading year ahead. So you can be confident that you're growing your business on solid foundations. 

WHY I CREATED THE GREENHOUSE

In this video I explain WHY The Greenhouse is here... (and you can decide if it's the right place for YOU to be right now). At the bottom of this page you can find the specifics of how it will work during the 3 month period.

 

"After just our first month together I had such clarity and direction that I felt like a new woman. I’m so excited about the ability to move my business forward in this new direction. I was totally confused and overwhelmed before we met yet I quickly became totally connected with my purpose and learnt loads of tricks how to create and strategise. I'm excited again for the first time in a long time. Thank you Rachel, and in particular for your patience & genuine enthusiasm. I'm going to recommend you to everyone I know - who doesn't need a secret weapon legal brain on their side?!"

Karina Pollard

"I’m so grateful for finding Rachel at a time when I needed her wisdom and care most. She got me back on track with my business when I felt totally overwhelmed and stuck. She quickly got to the heart of the issue and helped me to restore my confidence, my energy and my hope. I felt able to take back control and I was amazed at how quickly I was able to gain clarity and make decisions from a point of overwhelm. I would recommend Rachel unreservedly as a business coach to anyone who values truth, honesty, wisdom and empowerment. She's super smart but gentle and tuned in to individual needs. "

Louisa Hyatt

"It's not easy to find a high quality business coach in amongst all the noise online these days. I love that you have an incredible mix of business common sense, legal expertise, actual business building experience (not just hot air!) combined with humour and so much kindness. It's a rare mix indeed. I feel like you're the UK's best kept secret, and I did think before giving this testimonial whether to keep you for myself! "

LET'S TALK

MEET THE CHIEF GARDENER IN THE GREENHOUSE

Rachel Flower - growth guru and business mentor

I'm Rachel Flower, and I'm a specialist in growth strategy - supporting small businesses to grow from solid foundations. I trained as a commercial lawyer and practised law for many years before moving in-house as a Commercial Director in a FTSE100 company, managing teams and £multi-m budget, running cost savings and procurement projects. I took the leap into entrepreneurship in 2009 so I could build a business around my young family, creating change on my own terms. Since then I've helped hundreds of small business owners with scaling and commercial strategy. 

I'm a veritable expert on all things business growth related (and of course how to avoid or resolve business failure). 

My mission now is to inspire and mentor other business owners to step up and build on strong foundations, leading the way for positive change and creating lives of freedom and independence in the process. 

THE DETAILS

THE GREENHOUSE is a 3 month online group programme. For those of you who love the detail, here's the lowdown on what to expect from week to week.

The GREENHOUSE is a private online members-only interactive group programme. What does that mean? Read on...

It's limited to a maximum of 12 members for each intake, each person carefully selected through the application process.

We will follow a structure for the 3 months, so you can understand what is happening and why. The members area will be available for you for at least a year after the programme ends. So you can dip back into it and there is no pressure to consume everything in one go. The Greenhouse is about getting deeply rooted to grow to the next level, not about instant success. 

  1. You'll get a private login to the members area, and all your training, documents, call replays will be made available for you in here as the programme develops. There will be pre-work to do so you can analyse and deep-dive into your "as is" business model, and bring clarity to the specific challenges and issues which you're facing right now. 
  2. You will be invited into our private FB group. In here we will work as a peer group over the 3 months to share ideas, learnings, a-ha moments, challenge, celebrations. I'll be available to answer questions, and I'll be bringing in experts and running games and exercises to sit alongside each module. It's interactive and participative, that's how we best learn. 
  3. There are 8 core modules to the programme, carefully designed as my 8G method - key pillars to successful business growth.
  4. In the first 2 weeks of the programme, we will be focussing on module 1 "Getting to know you" as we explore and share the "as is" of our individual businesses. Connection and collaboration is key. This programme is about learning from me, learning from yourself, and learning from others. And of course sharing what you know. Participation is so important and you will get out of the programme what you put in.
  5. From week 3 to week 9 I will be releasing a weekly training module into the group. It will consist of a training video, with downloadable worksheets and instructions on how to apply the particular learning to you and your business. You do this in your own time, allow around 2 hours per week. 
  6. Each week, we will also have a live group Q&A session which will have space for hot-seat coaching and dealing with specific challenges. This means you get to ask me questions and get help in applying the learning as we go. The Q&A sessions will be recorded and you can submit questions in advance. Allow 1-2 hours for this. Replay will be available.
  7. In weeks 10-12 we will be working together to consolidate our learning and finalising individual plans for action and implementation. I will host live masterclasses so we can review individual plans and make sure everyone has reached a point of clarity.
  8. You can also book an hour 1-to-1 call with me in the last 3 weeks to get my eagle eyes on your personal plan and brainstorm together. 

By the end of your programme you will have a  "Business Boost Roadmap" - your own blueprint for action and forward strategy. 

What next?

If you've been in a group programme before, you'll know that reaching the end can be a bittersweet and emotional time! Fear not. I fully expect and plan for that day. So there will be an opportunity for you to graduate into my alumni group which means you can continue to work with all your new business besties long after you fly out of THE GREENHOUSE. Any future storms will be weathered by our retreating to its safety again, as and when we need. Sunshine shall always be available for those who seek it!

WHAT ELSE?

My speciality is personal and business growth. I provide 1-to-1 coaching, VIP intensives (the "Flower Power Sessions") and a bespoke legal support service called "Right Hand Woman". I'm a speaker and trainer, and my consultancy Serenwood sorts out contracts and corporate documents for small businesses. Whatever your challenge right now, you can book a call with me for help to work out what the right next step is for you. I've been around in business a while now and if I can't help, I'll know someone who can. Connection is my superpower.
