Working with Andy was a real eye-opener, especially for a complete beginner in business. His powerful training incorporates his knowledge of growing a business with psychology; marketing; finance and many others, but in a simple, accessible and fun way, with simple tasks to be completed each week, and which wasn't at any time overwhelming. His friendly and easy manner instantly put me at my ease, and I finished the course with the precise knowledge and tools needed to move forward. In addition, Andy is always available at the end of the phone or email and happy to help and support if anything comes up in the future. I recommend Andy and his methods wholeheartedly.

Andy has his own personal story and experience and has used this to develop something quite special that takes you on a journey. A real journey into goals, obstacles, ideal clients including some tough conversations and decisions - all leading to painting that picture so the team is aligned, feeling the same buzz, knowing and understanding not only what the aim is but also how they can get there. Andy is definitely a Sherpa guide, he's brought us to our mountain and we've worked now to determine what our path is - and we're all on the same path working together (with Andy!)
Andy's not afraid to share his vulnerabilities, his experiences to show that we're not designed to be perfect - we're designed to grow from every experience and utilise it to make life even better.
Thank you!!

I have used the Success GPS system in two of the businesses I own. I love it.
I was initially sceptical as I thought “just another goal setting program” but this program is more about the execution and even more importantly, the psychology of taking action and staying accountable.
I grew one business 2.7X in revenues and 4.4X in profit using these principles. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to grow a business and getting total clarity on where you currently are and how you get to the next level.

Before I spoke with Andrew, I was just stuck in first gear, the business was all over the place and I was spinning so many plates, and sometimes I just did not want to face work. After day 1 everything I needed to do made sense, within 7 days I’d totally restructured my business, and just knew what action I needed to take. Andrew gave me the confidence to do it, and I did. In 3 months I’m so focused, I’ve dramatically increased my earnings, I’m cruising in 6th gear, and I wake up every morning, positive and energised about what the day will bring. I feel like a different person.

“Andy has without a doubt helped me turn my business around for the better!! I took part in the Success GPS course earlier this year when I was working 50+ hours a week and just could not see the end to it all! I needed a new plan, structure and goals and Andy helped me achieve all of these and more!
The investment I made in his course was one of the best business decisions I have made, and I know that I can call on Andy at any point for help or advice.
If anyone is looking to make changes to their business for the better and get that work/life balance back the Andy is your person 100%!!”

Show me the mountain top, help me get there and I will send you a photo from the summit, with a heartfelt thank you, and an admiration for the person I have shared my life, my business and my soul with. From watching me and following my successes, you will realise and learn how instrumental you have been in that success, its my legacy for my son, my timestamp on the world, my opportunity seized, my dream complete.

Looking to take your life and business to the next level? Andrew Henderson is your man! Taking the time away from the day to day to sit down and really, and I mean REALLY decide exactly what you want in your life and how your business will help you get it was a refreshing experience and that got my head buzzing but for all the right reasons. Day 1 was amazing, onwards to day 2 in July! Any is a friendly guy who just wants to help others, reach out to him to get on the waiting list for the next “Day 1” – you won’t regret it!

As a Owner of a 3 well established businesses and a Property Investor, COVID19 created mixed emotions! Some worrying but mostly being excitement of the business challenges ahead.
Obviously this is an absolute health crisis and I don’t want anyone to think I’m overlooking that! Like everyone, I am worried for the health of family and friends!
But we decided to use the time wisely and look at where we are in our business and where we want to go! I am a believer in things happen for a reason and I started chatting with Andy Henderson from Forward Thinking who offers the Business Sherpa Guide!
I speak for me and my co-directors when I say it is the best thing we have ever done for our business. Analysing where we are, where we are going and EXACTLY how we are going to do it!
It was such a refreshing new way of looking at things! We are well on the way to implementing improved strategies and the results are already happening! The future is bright if you plan for it! Thanks Andy from The Straight talking: Sustainable Design and Building Energy People!
Looking forward to that beer!

Any business owners serious about growing their business and having a clear plan to do so NEED to do this. Amazing content clearly mapped out to get you and your business where you want to be by someone who has lived the business owner life with all the ups and downs it brings, walked the walk, smashed it and now sharing that knowledge. Don't miss out, book on Success GPS.
Jan Evans
Managing Director, Jets GPS

I stumbled across Andrew by chance, and to be honest was very sceptical at first. I have since enrolled in the online GPS course and couldn’t be happier.
My favourite part was the term “laser focused” this was a real eye opener for me or as Andrew likes to call it “lightbulb moment” !
Just a different perspective on your business does wonders and really helps you see what you can improve or tweek. I genuinely feel I have got a focus now and can take my small business to the next level.
Also as a side note, I did this during the recent pandemic and honestly Andrew took all the stress away by giving me a purpose...daily videos and updates. A members group where you can network with other likeminded people. Literally worth his weight in gold and would not hesitate to recommend. 100% thank you for your help now and in advance for the future !

I was lucky enough to be selected by Andy & Lee to take part in a beta test career GPS session.
Andy was fantastic at getting me to dig dipper in to what I wanted and where I wanted to be in life and career.
I enjoyed every session as they made it enjoyable and I was always looking forward to the next one.
When I started I was in a place where I didn't know where to go next with my career, lacked self-confidence and belief in myself on what I was capable off.
While I was doing the sessions, I gained the confidence I needed to take a leap into the right direction and managed to secure a new job in a new company heading to the right direction I want to be in. They both have your best interests at heart and they work with you to make sure you are getting best out of yourself.
I truly enjoyed witty/joker Andy who worked so hard to make sure by the end of the beta test that we all had positive outcome, which we all did. I know I did.
Lee was also a fantastic listener and always had a way of knowing the right words you needed when you are stuck with no words.
Thank you very much,

I was introduced to Andy through Ben Duckworth in the summer.
I found out he was doing a course called Career GPS which I found really interesting and useful!
Career GPS is a great course to go on if you are looking for clarity in your career, I personally felt it helped put other things into perspective too and help me find my spark again.
It has also given me my spring in my step and boot up backside and realised actually being my own boss is very much possible and achievable!
Andy made the course really enjoyable and exciting, I really wish I could pocket his enthusiasm up and carry it with me all the time! Andy is the go-to man to help unlock your hidden potential and give you self belief! He has definitely done that for me and I am excited to see what the future holds.
If you are feeling lost and unsure what career or where you want to be, Andy is the man to speak to!
He can definitely help you find clarity and reach the top of your mountain.
Thank you again Andy!

I've recently completed the GPS course with Andy. He's really friendly, down to earth and understands people from various backgrounds, be it sales, IT or a trade like myself.
I really looked forwards to my Tuesday morning sessions. They really were the highlight of my week.
I would happily recommend Andy and his Sherpa Guide System to anybody at any level.

Andy was an unbelievable help in focusing how I want the next 5-10 years to be shaped. My career, financials and lifestyle has completely changed and his GPS programme was a revelation. I would recommend it to anyone looking to improve your whole life and career
Giles Hamilton Jones

The Success GPS programme that Andy runs brings together loads of the leading systems and methods of building a successful business in an easy to understand and enjoyable way. This, coupled with Andy's passion and enthusiasm makes this a great investment for any new business owner or anyone who just needs to refocus!
Martin Horton
Business Owner

Really enjoyed the course. It is simple, clear and easy to follow without being overly intense. The structure and content has given me a clear vision and strategy for the next ten years. I really recommend this course to anyone, especially those just starting their journey as well of those in the midst of it who seek further clarity, focus and direction. Fantastic value for money plus Andy continues to offer free of charge guidance, support and advice following its completion.
Thank you Sherpa!

2 weeks ago I knew that my business needed clarity so when I heard about Success GPS I jumped at it. Now I not only have a clear big picture about where my business is going long term but I also know every day what my priorities are and what I'm working towards. This degree of focus, I know will fundamentally change my business. Thanks Andy!
Kate Holroyd
Business Owner

Thanks for the course Andy, it has really helped. me to crystallise my next steps. As you know you can't coach yourself, so this has really helped me get clarity around what is missing. The first year of the plan is low key, lots of content to create, but then it will get interesting!
Good structured process with clear materials and guidance.
Later this year I will be ready to help leaders become good company for their company.
I have taken the first step, and another, each day is just one more step to where I am going.
Tim Akerman

I'm so grateful I was given the chance to be part of the Career GPS programme with Andy. I wish I had been given the gift of this course when I was leaving school. I’ve wasted so much time searching outside for the right thing for me, when the answers were inside me all the time – I just needed to know how to find them. Andy guides you to look at your life, not just your career, analyse where you are right now, identify where you want to be in 10 years, then gives you a map to get there – no getting lost or time wasting!
Thank you so much Andy Henderson

Superb business programme with step by step progress to grow your business.
I completed Andy's Success GPS course in the summer of 2020, the hardest year for business in my life. It helped me form a sustainable plan for my business.
I now have a focussed, step by step plan for my business, how to get there, and my mind is a lot clearer.
The programme gave exactly what it said on the tin.
It also offered Andy's enthusiasm, positivity AND the support of the other business owners on the course. Support is vital when things are tough, and 2020 has been just that. TOUGH!! The support is ongoing, even though the course has finished.
Andy is a Forward Thinking, straight talking, down to earth guy with a vision to help thousands of business owners like me.
I can feel the benefits of the course already.
Thank you Andy and Tribe #11

I had the pleasure of being invited to Andy and Lee’s Career GPS beta group, and although I'd heard good things about Andy and his coaching, I didn't think it was going to be for me, and I'm glad to say just how wrong I was!
Andy & Lee have put together an incredible course that any career professional will get mountains of value from.
Although being friendly and kind, Andy nor Lee won't hesitate to ask the sorts of the questions that you may not want to hear the answer from, but ultimately will help you on your journey. Big thanks to you guys for inviting on the journey and if you have the pleasure to work with Forward Thinking, Stay open minded and be prepared to come of the session a new person.

Hi Andy,
Just wanted to say a big thank you for teaching us for the past few weeks! I’ve learned so much over these sessions, and incorporating the strategies you’ve given us (especially the ones where you break down huge goals into smaller ones and the one in Step 5 where we consider the impact achieving these goals will have on our family & the world, that was really motivating) has helped me a lot even in my daily life too.
I hope things are going well for your new health GPS courses, and I can't wait to see what you have in store for the world in the future 🙂
Thank you for being our sherpa guide!
Best,
