Customer reviews
See what our clients are saying about us
Gear for Growth has recently been a lifesaver for our family! With two kids and demanding jobs, finding the time to manage everything can feel impossible. To date, their team stepped in and helped us with so much - from organising support for our rental apartment to planning a last-minute holiday and even securing a Home Affairs booking for our son.

"I have known Fungai for over 20 years. She has always been a bright shining star: diligent, conscientious and a warm and friendly soul. It was therefore a no- brainer for me to engage her firm, Gear for Growth.
As a multi-passionate mompreneur, I felt overwhelmed with all the juggling I was doing!
Fungai took time to understand my situation, anticipate my needs and help me to craft a plan to help me make real progress with each of my projects."
