💼 From corporate sales targets to an 8-week European holiday...

Nine years ago, James Simcock was working hard in sales, growing someone else’s bottom line, and feeling frustrated that his effort wasn't reflected in his pay packet.

He wanted three things:
✔️Control over his income
✔️Real reward for his hard work
✔️True flexibility and freedom

Today, James runs a thriving Green Acres Enterprise business in Nelson with 3 full-time employees and 2 vehicles. The best part? He built an operation that continued running and generating revenue, while he spent eight weeks travelling around Europe earlier this year.

"It's very satisfying. It's very rewarding being your own boss. There's no doubt about it." — James Simcock

Whether you're looking to start small with our Go model, build full-time independence with Foundation, or scale a multi-employee operation with Enterprise, we provide the systems, training, and support to match your ambition.

📖 Read James’s full feature on Stuff to see how taking the leap into business ownership paid off: https://f.mtr.cool/1ifaw9xkn8

After leaving sales, James Simcock built a business that gives him true freedom.
