Find Book Beauty

Find Book Beauty is a powerful booking engine helping customers find the best makeup, hair and beauty therapists in a location of their choice. Customers can filter by prices, reviews and more! 

The software enables beauty business to automate quoting, show live appointment availability, enforce cancellation policies, and generate leads 24/7 online. 

In many ways, the platform is similar to AirBNB where finding and booking beauty services is convenient and easy.

My role is to grow the lending book for Healthcare sector (e.g. Dentists, GPs, Specialists, pharmacists & childcare). I see what I do as more than just sales. I enjoy advising businesses on future strategy along with filling in the missing gap of how to use debt to scale a business.

Key highlights include:
•	Wrote $20 million in new lending within first 12 months
•	Built up a sales pipeline of $62 million within first 12 months 
•	Managed a $156million customer loan book 
•	Built in-depth network to generate medico leads
•	Developed and Managed a high performance team
•	Roll out a 6 week national broker training session to educate brokers on medico finance
•     Head up a national branding campaign  for sales development for ANZ’s Healthcare business

Senior Relationship Manager (Sales)

I was responsible for negotiating complex credit for businesses requiring 10 to 35 million of lending. I had a diverse client base with concentration in pubs and clubs, education and food and beverage businesses.

Senior Relationship Credit Manager

I was headhunted to move into this strategic growth oriented leadership and coaching role in a secondment capacity, based on my proven strengths in influencing positive change management, leading to highly constructive business development. In a nutshell, expansion and enhancement of what this division could offer and deliver to both current and prospective small business customers was my primary ambition.

This was spurred on by my overriding business objective of eliciting strong sales and revenue growth for ANZ. I therefore continually introduced customer-service-tailored business innovations that upped sales results along with team-wide confidence and capabilities. These included the construction and coaching of relationship management programs (particularly customer engagement) that were more reflective, reactive and downright effective.

My steady, hands-on leadership and coaching to develop a team of relationship management specialists, to cultivate self-driven and self-assessed change management activities, soon had the impact I’d hoped for. Sales and revenue targets continued to be exceeded, and the entire team felt better connected and united in its ambition of steering the right kind of strategic growth.

Area Manager 

Identified by my former employer as someone who could optimise relationship management activities including strategic growth with ANZ if I transferred my career there, I started out as an assistant manager and was senior-level manager within 12 months.

Above and beyond customer service including via never-before-considered business innovations to boost retention and subsequent sales and revenue, was what I stood for in this role. This included high risk client management, intelligent credit decisions, practices and protocol that made the overall service more proficient, transparent and cost-effective. 

I soon became the yardstick of best-practice strategic growth and relationship management. Very few customers within my portfolio were lost and/or left feeling dissatisfied. 

Furthermore, my leadership, coaching and moulding of business development driven infrastructure, including via cross-country workshops, produced the highest ever internal engagement results. The multi-site multicultural team was transformed into a single culture where optimal sales and revenue, founded on constructive relationship management, was what spurred them on.

Risk Management Specialist

PPB Advisory

First working here as a graduate analyst while completing my chartered accountant studies, it wasn’t long before I was recognised and appreciated for my ‘bigger picture’ perspective when analysing client portfolios. Here’s where I fine-tuned my business innovations oriented intellect, including my highly constructive relationship management, change management and business development capabilities.

While undertaking comprehensive sales and revenue influenced investigations, I developed an aptitude for digging deeper and negotiating further than was ever expected of me. My talent for exceeding financial goals and expectations showcased me as a fearless navigator of commercial markets and loopholes. I was an analyst that delivered data-validated recommendations for well-informed decision-making, including in relation to strategic growth. 

In addition to conducting analytical investigations, I also often coached and provided leadership to new team members. My in-built commitment to ongoing continuous improvements has always been multilateral, extending across multiple internal teams as well as multiple internal systems and practices.

Senior Analyst

Serial Entrepreneur | Personal Brand Expert | Investor

From experience, I know that…

Your personal brand should be bigger than your business. 

After ditching the corporate finance grind, I rerouted into marketing and started my personal branding agency.

Why?

Because, I saw what personal branding did for me. It gave me influence, a seat at the table, the stage at speaking events which turned into millions in revenue for my multiple businesses. 

So, I developed my own system to establish my personal brand in the online business world. I got from 0 – 7 figures in just under 2 years.  

And that’s how I became an expert in personal branding, content creation and LinkedIn growth, helping founders and serial entrepreneurs to get outstanding results. 

Now, I’m the go-to maven for personal branding, steering entrepreneurs to massive success. I’ve supported 50+ personal brands repositioning their messaging for success.

I’ve seen companies land $20 million+ in funding, attract top talent, feature on Forbes all through telling their story and sharing their thoughts. 

I started my podcast Innovative Minds where I interview the best minds around the world, who are influencers and have powerful personal brands.

Using this expertise, I get 3+ million post impressions a year, 250K on single posts, and 200-300 engagements per post on LinkedIn and speaker gigs at the biggest marketing events in Australia.

And on the side, I’m building a property empire in Bali. My personal brand spans and accelerates ventures. Yours could too.  

So, if you fancy going deeper into your personal branding journey, there’s a poolside spot with your name on it.

Remember, authenticity sells. 

Because, people buy from people they trust. It’s got to be all about you: your voice, your image and your values.

Nothing lights me up like seeing you, my client, win big with engagement, pitches, and deals.

Are you ready to be unforgettable?

Brad Stevens

I had no idea one hire would change the entire trajectory of my career.

In this conversation with Thomas Fox of Compliance Podcast Network, I share how I hired someone with no VA experience who later became the COO of a 500 plus team.

She learned fast, took ownership, and grew at a remarkable pace. By supporting her and investing in her development, that early partnership became the foundation of what later became Outsource Access in 2019.

It reinforced something I believe deeply: when you invest in people, they often rise far beyond expectations.

CEO at Outsource Access: Talented, Affordable, Staff from the Philippines supporting SMB’s in 75+ industries including franchisors and franchisees (500 staff: Marketing, Sales, Operations, Finance, Exec Admins and More)

Worried a VA might not fully “get” your operations?

Mitch’s experience with @JCB Insurance Solutions, working with John Breckenridge, is a perfect example of what happens when leaders give clarity and consistent guidance. 

She started in admin, then grew into graphics, CRM, and student experience—all because her client invested in her growth.

This is exactly what happens when founders delegate with intention—you unlock real capability and growth.

How Outsourcing and AI Works for Banking Industry

Do you worry your VA will not grow with your business?

Mitch’s work with JCB Insurance Solutions and John Breckenridge shows what happens when leaders support rather than overload. 

She moved into graphics, CRM, admin, and student experience tasks because her client guided her and encouraged her development.

This is how capability grows and bottlenecks disappear.

Staff turnover should not stop your operations.

I see many restaurants struggle when the person managing Restaurant365 leaves or is overloaded. 

During our webinar on December 10 at 2 PM EST, I'll show how District Taco (18 locations) maintained full R365 execution through redundancy and outsourced support. Their workflows stayed uninterrupted, and their teams regained confidence in the system.

Founders often ask me whether VAs actually have the skills their business needs.

After supporting so many entrepreneurs, I have seen a clear pattern. Most businesses do not require highly specialized expertise. They need someone who learns quickly, communicates well, and can adapt to shifting priorities. Those qualities outperform technical skills every single time.

At Outsource Access, we take a deep look at the role during discovery, understand what matters most in your workflow, and match you with talent who naturally fits those needs.

This is how we set founders up to scale with confidence.

Teams should not have to absorb the pressure of operational gaps.

I often see restaurants where internal staff are overloaded with invoice processing, reporting, and multi-location coordination. 

During our webinar on December 10 at 2 PM EST, I’ll share how District Taco (18 locations) lifted that burden with outsourced R365 execution, restoring efficiency and reducing internal stress.

Building culture that lasts.

Reflecting on our growth since 2019, I’m proud that Outsource Access has become a people-first organization with 500 employees in just four and a half years.

For me, culture sets the stage, retention, engagement, and employee satisfaction all stem from how we treat our people. It’s central to success and to changing the perception of offshore outsourcing companies.
