    Helped me develop my business further

    I'm very happy to inform you that I have finished studying the colour analysis in a box and I feel really confident to have started the colour analysis on my clients. As you are aware that I am already running my Image consultation business, a well-informed study on this subject has helped me develop my business further. I now request my diploma. I have also purchased the colour analysis starter set which I am looking forward to.

    Charities are benefitting

    Kim, did 2 consultations during half-term break (had 3 people asking but I needed a bit of a break) and both ladies are so delighted they have weeded out their wardrobes and donated loads to charity. Charities are benefitting from colour styling! I took your advice and cut down on the work that goes into the client profile.

    No more procrastinating

    First of all I wanted to say how much I enjoyed the Colour Yourself Fabulous sessions! I've loved colour analysis for more years than I care to remember but have only ever dabbled and never taken it beyond an interest, that is until now. When I found out that you were offering the tonal system training with the option to pay in monthly instalments I thought - no more procrastinating, time to get my kit and caboodle in gear!

    I recently purchased your online course Fabulous Colour and have learned so much after just the first day. I'm gearing up to put myself out there as a color consultant. I'm 50 years old and I'm having a 'do-over' in my life. Your no-nonsense attitude and sincere support are not only encouraging, but also inspiring.

    A huge thanks for the Advance Training day it was fantastic. Your enthusiasm was infectious and your drive to ensure we all do well was so encouraging. My mind has been a complete whirl since with so many ideas and plans, along with welding my drapes at any willing victim to help with my learning. Also the ability to meet so many other really friendly consultants was so helpful.

    The queen of colour

    I spoke to Kim for the first time earlier having completed my online training. I'd described my 'call' to friends as a 'test' but it couldn't have been more relaxed. Kim was full of great ideas and advice, I could have carried on talking forever. Thank you Kim. Great to talk to you, the queen of colour!

    Most comprehensive program

    Hello there Kim! I have just finished your wonderful Color Analysis in a Box and Tonal Taster training and would like to request my Diploma. I have been immersed in the wonderful world of learning all about your color system and have to say this is by far the best experience abroad that I have ever had and feel very blessed to have you as my teacher! I found it to be the most comprehensive program I could find and the one that makes total sense to me.

    Enthusiasm and knowledge inspiring

    Thanks so much for the [colour analysis] course last week. I thoroughly enjoyed the time with you. Your enthusiasm and knowledge is inspiring. My brain has been on overload for the last few days. I got the file out this morning and went over the notes. It's starting to slot into place. Whilst watching TV over the weekend it was impossible to not try to guess which season people were! Celebs are rather confusing because they change their hair colour! I would love to do additional training with you. Please keep me informed of future courses. I have to thank you again. Your method of teaching and your flexibility in attitude already has left me feeling so much more confident in my abilities.
