What Our Creative Businesses Say
From helping fresh-faced start-ups take their first bold steps into business, to guiding established brands into exciting new markets, we’ve had the absolute pleasure of being part of countless success stories. Here’s what these amazing businesses have to say about their adventures with Onwards and Up.
“Toyin has a great deal of knowledge in the fashion sector. I was lucky to get her advice and mentoring when I was just starting out”.
Rosie Kent, Founder of Rosie Kent Jewellery
“Toyin’s AI seminar was a really helpful introduction to how small business owners can start using AI in a practical way. I came away with a clearer understanding of the basics and a few simple ideas I can apply in Studio Hayes, particularly around content and admin. It’s given me a great starting point to build from”.
Deirdre Hayes, Founder of Studio Hayes
“I have attended various workshops at Onwards and Up. All workshops have been very informative with great tools that have been valuable for my fashion business”.
Monisha Robinson, Founder of Mocaro
“I really enjoyed just having someone else to look at it from, like, a fresh perspective… there’s really not anybody out there that can come up with all of the answers themselves, and I think just having that outside perspective has just been really helpful.”
