About Me

Hi. I'm Dean Tolhurst, known as 'The Fixer'.

As my name suggests I bring expertise to small and medium size enterprises to assist in any aspect of business mentoring. I am an experienced entrepreneur with a background in several trades.  I know what it takes to create, develop and pivot small businesses.

I want to share my expertise with others who are seeking to work with me, a person who has experienced success and failures in business. I am here  to walk beside you whilst you start, grow or transition your business.

Although I have an MBA, my most valued asset is my intuition and experience. I’m a down to earth person providing common sense industry and personal experience and advice.

What They Say

Client Testimonials

I was very grateful to work with Dean as a coachee. Dean combines real world experience in starting and running business with wisdom about mental health, personal capacity and thought patterns.

I've found Dean to be humble and a great listener and encourager. He is assertive but not arrogant with me as a client and that makes it easy to get stuck into some the issues in my own business that have arisen.

He's able to out his finger on the root cause of issues by asking smart questions that really make you think, and guiding your thinking towards practical solutions.

My business and personal outlook for this venture have both improved greatly since working under Deans coaching. Thank you!

Jon Mend Property Maintenance

Starting a new business was an overwhelming and daunting prospect for me; I didn’t know where to start, what I needed to do and what I needed to know (Google can only help so much). With Dean’s support, I have learned and achieved so much in the time we’ve been meeting. Getting guidance, ideas and input, another’s perspective - and be held accountable for them each time we met - has been super motivating and encouraging for me. I wasn’t sure if I could do this; now I know I can. I feel like I’ve got someone in my corner. Thank you so much Dean.
