Your Business Ally

About

I'm Ian Rummels, a business mentor based on my own experience of starting, scaling and selling successful businesses. I set up Your Business Ally because I know how lonely it can feel when every decision in a growing business starts and ends with you. I wanted to offer directors someone on their side to share ideas with, ask advice from, and lean on when things get tough. I offer personalised one-to-one mentoring and advisory support for business founders and CEOs. Positioned as a confidential sounding board rather than formal consultancy: somewhere to share ideas, ask for advice, work through difficult issues and get accountability. Being a business founder or CEO involves wearing a lot of hats. When every decision starts and ends with you, life can get lonely. I know – I've been there. Having established, grown and led PES and Cloud 8 I share my big wins AND my mistakes, so you can focus on what works for you. It’s a safe space to connect, share and process – to tackle challenging issues, gain accountability and achieve your goals.
