About Bree Vreedenburgh Bree lives with her partner, son and dog in beautiful Perth, Western Australia. When she’s not working, Bree can often be found writing plays, and treading the boards at her local community theatre. Bree’s 20-plus year career has crossed many industries, and taken many turns. However, nearly all of her paths have been within small businesses, and as a result, she has been given a birds-eye view of how small business operates, and how it can operate effectively. This broad base gives Bree the unique perspective of being able to look beyond the industry, and into the workings of the business eco-system – the processes, people and organisations that operate in the world of the business. Bree has a Diploma in Business (Franchising), Cert III in Financial Services (Accounting), and is a Certified Business Coaching Specialist. She has a very old Train the Trainer certification that she is currently turning into a Cert IV in Workplace Training and Assessment – she is firmly of the belief that one should never stop learning. Bree’s company, BV International, was formed to offer Franchises and Small Business owners the opportunity to gain professional coaching, support and consulting that is designed especially for them. Coaching provides an impetus for franchises and small business owners to stretch out, overcome obstacles that could be holding them back, and to reach their business goals. BV International makes coaching affordable and effective for small business owners. Bree’s other short business books include How to find Success on Your Own Terms and Improve your Franchise Relationship and Make More Money. Bree is available on [email protected] should you wish to contact her.
