Milkshake Hill - Susan Whitwell |
 |
I knew what I wanted to do but had little idea of how to make it go, and to move my ideas into an amazing business. So with Chris’s direction and help we started with a name. My first idea was an absolute no from Chris. I knew I had to connect with the name. I let the name go and didn’t think about it for a little while. When telling my son a story about when he was a baby, I told him how I walked his pram up "milkshake hill”, and I knew instantly that was it. Chris number crunched the name and it was perfect. So the next step was the brand. |
I had a basic idea of what I wanted, and pushed for that to be the starting point. Chris and her team started work on that point and gave me a few concept designs, along with a few "outside the box”. I chose what was closest to my idea of my business, and disregarded the rest. Within the first 2 weeks of having my brand, I realised the logo wouldn’t work for me. It should have because that was what I thought I wanted, but I didn’t listen. I hadn’t given over to the process and let the magic happen.
What I did know was that the answer to milkshake hill was already in front of me, so I looked at all the concept designs Chris had given me. There was milkshake hill all along. Chris had given the brand to me but I didn’t see it.
With a quick call to Chris milkshake hill was born. I loved the feel and energy and it makes me smile. From that moment my business and I moved ahead in leaps and bounds. It moved easily.
Chris gave me uniqueness. I knew the idea was unique, and that’s what she moved with. So that’s the story with milkshake hill and that without Chris’s advice, it would be a different name, different logo and would not have moved anywhere. This milkshake hill will be global and well received, and for the wearer, a little part of magic.

Whenever I set up a business I make sure I get Chris in to get everything sorted perfectly from the get go and so far every single thing I’ve done has been highly successful. |

She makes sure you’re drawing to you exactly what you want and she points out if you’re attracting the bad stuff (which could lead to any multitude of issues e.g. legal, financial, partnership, people, personal etc).
She’s spot on the money when it comes to numerology so if you want to understand who you are, what it means, what your company stands for, what it’s attracting and how to overcome any barriers you’re currently facing, she’s brilliant. She’s very ‘tell it how it is’ and she’s highly commercial as well. You’re not to speaking to some airy fairy person.
I love the fact that she is a woman who herself has launched successful businesses, run large organisations, run marathons, kayaked marathons, written 3 books and motivated hundreds of people to do the same. What she does is deals with reality and gets results. She’s extremely practical as well.
If you’re worried about the consultation fee, I would just question how much you’re willing to invest to get everything flowing smoothly. From the stuff I’ve learnt from Chris, I can honestly say that I’ve had occasions where we’ve changed one or two things and within 1hr I’ve had a job come through for $6,000 and then the phone keeps ringing. I referred a girl I used to work with the other day and her son wanted to get his career happening in modelling and with a few changes to his career path, he had 2 jobs in 2 weeks and my friends husband my 3 quick sales the next day after moving stuff in their bedroom.
It truly does work and you will be rewarded a million times over and to be honest I think she’s really cheap compared to other business coaches who do jack squat and have no idea what they’re talking about. She’s like having a numerologist, feng shui master, colour consultant, colour therapies and business coach all in one. I love the fact that she has a business background.

Our Companies have been working with Chris for nearly 10 years. We always marvel at Chris’ ability to create new brands and logos that just seem to look right from the very beginning. We recently undertook a rebranding where we merged two existing companies into one.
The result is outstanding and once again proved the value of seeking Chris’ advice in what can often be a very contentious process |

What can I say about working with Chris - such an awesome experience from the original design idea to working with the energy of the colours and numbers, right through to the completed design - it is so ME!! Plus of course lots of other business tips and ideas along the way ;)
If you are starting out in a new business or looking at re-branding I would certainly say give Chris a ring.
With huge thanks from Jacqui of InnerZing

Chris Brazel is phenomenal! Her knowledge, expertise, guidance goes above and beyond. She helped rebrand me from Roar to Justine McKell Media and boy did the clients fly through the door.
Chris is an integral part of any business. Whether you believe it or not a logo and colour is everything it is your identity .. Get the identity right and you business soars. That is what she has done for me. There is no mucking around with Chris Brazel, she gets right to the heart and gets the energy moving. I couldn't highly recommend her enough.

Chris Brazel has an uncanny perspective for seeing the work environment intangibles that support a grounded, focused mindset for performance.
This is a critical component for full engaged performance, and I've seen the benefits of Chris' expertise within my own business as well as corporate and other companies.
Chris' work provided a sort of environmental feng shui - including the flow of presence. No details gets past her, no opportunity to further excellence escapes her attention. "Almost spooky" maybe a more appropriate term here then "uncanny".
In my own business, Chris has been integral in making it easy for people to access what my services are about, and the kind of professionalism I offer. She has also created mechanisms which select the best clientele for achieving positive outcomes from Centred Presence Services. This has meant that program applicants are ready properly matched up with what we offer, leading to relatively minimal effort for gaining maximal returns. This is an enormous benefit in a business serving the pointy end of executive performance, where reputation for results is critical.
Quite noticeable, and difficult to explain how, her work creates an increased sense of happiness all along the way, for clients, colleagues and me.
I love the way she brought together the business name, log, colours and website.

When Chris Brazel went through and did the numerology from a business point of view on my old business, my partner and myself were astonished at what she said that was more than likely happening in our business. She knew EXACTLY what was happening and Chris then told me what to do about it. I worked on exactly what she said and then went and changed everything in my business including my Business Trading Name, my Phone Numbers, my Bank Account and my Domain Name for my website. After I did this, we have had nothing but success and growth in my business. I truly feel like Chris started me off on the right foot for my business and it has been an absolute blessing! I cannot thank Chris enough for this and encourage anyone to join Chris on a journey to success in your Business. Just be sure to follow her advice, no matter what it is! It works! |
