What business owners
say about Basic Bananas

Property business up 150% in 2 years while working with basic bananas

Since I started with Basic Bananas, the business has doubled in terms of turnover, and we’re on track to do another 50% growth in our third year working with Basic Bananas, and that’s come from implementing the marketing strategies that we’ve learned. It’s had a big impact on our business.

Travel and events business reinventing themselves to stay ahead of the game

I didn’t feel like my business was big enough to work with you, however being able to look at my business through a framework has been invaluable. The information is fantastic, whether it’s how to get free press or the latest in online advertising, the technical information is amazing and connecting with the little community is what inspires me. Learning the latest hot tips and the environment that you facilitate that within is really positive and that’s what keeps me coming back.

A fashion business – going from markets to running a successful online store

Our business was at a point where it was make or break, so we decided to join the Basic Bananas Clever Bunch program and we’re already seeing direct results. It’s more than paying for itself, just the increase from last month’s sales has paid for the entire yearly fees for both of us. I wish we did it two and a half years ago when I first found basic bananas. We’ve made many changes to our online marketing and how we offer our products, this has been really outstandingly successful. If you’re thinking abouBasic Bananas, do it. If you’re wondering about it … just do it. It’s great we get the lessons and we can contact them for advice on anything.

Vineyard going from strength to strength with their online sales

We’re seeing more traction online and people being confident to go on our website to buy products. Thanks for all your help at Basic Bananas in the last 6 months. It’s been really very rewarding and we learnt a lot and will keep learning a lot!
