About us

My Teddy has worked with Innovate Sunshine Coast for over a year. We needed professional help. Tracie, from the outset was amazing, in that she quickly learnt what we do and how we operate. Then provided guidance on how to achieve our goal, and even goals we hadn’t thought to strive for.

Her work has helped to has established us as a business leader in our community with strong connections in many areas. Her holistic approach means she isn’t there just for a singular task but to work with our business to identify, suggest and guide on strategies for the future.

The way Tracie operates is that it is all about us.

All these achievements have Tracie with us, guiding, strategizing, explaining how and what to say and do, why, and where and how to set up collaborative relationships that are not just about our wellbeing, but to be involved with and even initiate such relationships, which benefit the wider community

Tracie has also worked with us to formalise a long term donation arrangement with a government supported, yet not fully funded, Palliative Care unit for children – Bear Cottage. Tracie arranged it all. There was a lot of government paperwork and her experience with such processes helped us a great deal and saved us a lot of time and anguish.

We look forward to more adventurous, business building, community aimed, relationship focused activities. Who knows what or where they will be, but we feel ready for anything now….as long as Tracie is with us.

Tracie is an extremely capable and amazing lady who thinks of everyone ahead of herself.

As part of our network group, she is constantly providing her expert advice and tips to the members to help them improve their businesses. She genuinely wants to help others and it shows through her willingness to give of her knowledge.

Although only a newer member of our network group, Tracie put her hand up to be part of our committee very early on, to provide support and constant ideas to our group.

Tracie is fully involved in the community, by being a very active member of the Caloundra Chamber of Commerce and Sunshine Coast Business Women’s Network, promoting many non-for-profit events such as the Steps Charity Ball, Caloundra Rugby events and helping many with community and business grant opportunities.

Her skills are in understanding different people’s businesses by listening to you and asking all the right questions to ensure she understands what you are wanting to achieve and then she puts in place a strategy to make it all happen.

As a consultant, Tracie truly knows her stuff and I would recommend her to anyone who needs help to grow their business.

Tracie is humble in her success as a business woman, however, she has experienced exponential growth and respect within the business community as a leader and connector in her field.

Tracie seeks to understand all areas of the business and imparts her strong family and community values to all areas. This quality ensures that all stakeholders of the business, being clients, suppliers, affiliated businesses, the greater community and her family are all remunerated and treated in a fair manner.

Tracie’s commitment to her support of the local community through her networking and the success of the business is unquestionable. Tracie constantly puts others needs and success before her own in the way that she connects like minded businesses with each other and quite often will spend time with motivated small business owners to help them gain direction and clarity on a pro bono basis – simply because she wants to see these businesses succeed within our community.

She is authentic and genuine in the way she presents herself and the outcomes that she desires and Tracie’s commitment to leadership and keeping abreast of local community issues is evident in her active involvement with groups such as the local chambers, local business groups and council initiatives for local small business.

In my years as an accountant and business advisor, there are very few clients who hold both the leadership skills and business skills it takes to be a successful business person who makes a difference to the greater community and Tracie is one of those few who is affluent in both of these skill sets.
