"Business Masters was life changing for me. Before I did this course I was the owner of 2 salons... Now I'm running 2 salons & really enjoying it. It's going to take 1-2 years to get where I want to go but that's another very important factor I learnt... PATIENCE! Something God didn't give me but Alan Austin-Smith definitely taught me!! Every day of this course leaves you hungry for the next day!"

"I think I can honestly say that the Business Masters was the best course I have ever attended. The level of intensiveness and delivery from Alan meant that I have been able to retain the information more that I ever have in the past. I found the areas covering communication with the team, and the management systems, particularly invaluable. I would say this course is a must for anyone in a managerial position."

Thanks Alan and Sam, looking forward to the madness of the next few months and seeing everyone again. Couldn't recommend it more!!

Linda McGrath

"Spent the last three days learning some of the most powerful tools in running a business that can be applied to any company , from what it takes in being successful right down to how the mind works. Intense is an understatement, I'm physically exhausted , brain is in overdrive and if I never see another figure again it will be too soon ,and all I can honestly say is ... This man knows his stuff. It's been the most incredible learning experience and I'm super excited for stage two in September."
