Case Study: Rachel Sharp

The Little Oak Studio
“Tammy helped me realise my worth and gave me the confidence to grow my business in the way I want. Her support has been truly invaluable.”

The Challenge

Rachel Sharp is the founder of The Little Oak Studio, specialising in capturing precious family moments through stunning newborn and family photography. When Rachel first met Tammy, she had just taken a major step by opening her own studio in Ridgehaven and was ready to grow her business. However, she faced several challenges:

  • Navigating business growth after moving into a commercial space
  • Managing everything independently without systems or procedures
  • Lacking clarity and confidence in her business direction
  • Struggling to balance her roles as a business owner, wife, and mother of
    four

The Outcome

Working with Tammy has been transformative for Rachel, providing her with clarity, confidence, and practical strategies to grow her business. Tammy’s support has helped Rachel put systems in place, recognise her worth, and prepare her business for future growth.

Key results include:

  • Implementing systems and procedures to manage operations efficiently
  • Gaining confidence to run her business on her terms
  • Preparing to take on staff to enable further expansion
  • Building a strong sense of community and support through Tammy’s
    Table
  • Balancing her business with her family life and seeing the potential to
    earn a sustainable wage

Don’t just take my word for it!
Here’s a taste of what others have to say.

Joining Tammy's Table has been one of the best business decisions I've made. From the very first meeting, I felt genuinely welcomed. Tammy has created such a warm, supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing their experiences, challenges and ideas. There is a real sense of trust and confidentiality, which makes it easy to be open and honest. Every member brings a wealth of business experience, and I always walk away having learnt something new. The monthly topics are thoughtfully chosen and explored in depth, and I've implemented many of the ideas and strategies we've discussed into my own business. As a small business owner, it can sometimes feel like you're making every decision on your own. Tammy's Table has become an extension of my support network. It's reassuring to know there is a group of like-minded business owners who genuinely want to help each other succeed, and that I can reach out between meetings if I need advice or another perspective. I've also loved being able to contribute my own experiences and support others. It's a community where everyone has something valuable to offer. If you're looking for genuine connection, support and practical business wisdom, I highly recommend Tammy's Table.

Tammy's Customer Journey workshop was fun, practical and focused on giving me an outcome in the form of a working document to guide streamlining our processes.
