Consulting Career

I have worked for some of the largest consulting firms and banks on the planet. I worked for PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Andersen Consulting and KPMG Consulting. My specialty was e-business and business improvement consulting to large Financial organisations like HSBC, Macquarie Bank and Commonwealth Bank.

Cornflowerblue

cornflowerblue was my first foray into entrepreneurship. cornflowerblue was an online baby and kids clothing store that sold organic and ethically produced clothing, toys and accessories. cornflowerblue was launched in 2009 as an online store and kids clothing label. Over the 4 years that I ran cornflowerblue I grew it to a 5 figure business. cornflowerblue was one of the brands selected to sell on Westfield online - which was a big achievement for a small online store. Our clothing label was stocked in over 20 store in Australia and sold via Zulily in the US.

Boutique Business COnsulting

Boutique Business Consulting was founded in 2013 in Hong Kong. At the time Sarah Drysdale, the Managing Director was based in Hong Kong. The business predominately focused on deliver fast effective ecommerce website to clients. The websites were created on great platforms like Shopify, Wordpress and Squarespace. Boutique Business Consulting grew quickly off the back of fabulous reviews from clients. Boutique Business Consulting has delivered over 100 fantastic websites. Sarah moved back to Australia in 2014. Boutique Business Consulting was then operated out of our Camden offices. The team grew. In 2015 Sarah reached the point where the business had grown to such a point she need to join forces to with another team to see her vision for the business become a reality. In May 2015 Sarah sold the web development business to The Hope Factory. The Hope Factory is a digital agency in Melbourne. If you are looking for robust, imaginative and beautiful websites - contact Andrew at The Hope Factory. 

The sale of the web development business to The Hope Factory means that Sarah can now focus on what she loves. Helping men and women to succeed in business. Sarah's focus is now on the coaching and coaching programs. She can't wait to work with you!
