Doing your own thing? You’re not alone…
Hi, I’m Fleur Emery and for nearly 20 years I have been starting businesses and helping other women to start theirs. During that time there have been highs and lows: I have won awards and been covered in glory and I’ve made mistakes and faced defeat, starting over from scratch and toughing it out through two global recessions.
My work as a startup consultant and coach is the culmination of all of this; I use my experience, insight and energy to help you create and grow a business that reflects who you are.
If you have a business or an idea for a business and want to drive growth and impact and thrive while you do it, you are in the right place. Why do I care so much about this stuff? Because women really are changing the world, one business at a time.

HOW DID I GET HERE?
My first brand went from concept to Waitrose in 18 months, the second from concept to house lager at The Ritz Hotel in the same time frame. I created and delivered a business and branding programme for founders at UCL and have coached some of the most successful women entrepreneurs of their generation.
The Dots named me ‘1 of 100 Women Changing the Creative Industries’. I was shortlisted for Female Entrepreneur of the Year by Investor Allstars, I won a Mercury Award for Best Onboard Food, I won the Grazia / O2 Award for Best Food & Drink Startup, The Guardian named me in their ‘Future 500’ list and I am a PowerMBA graduate. My podcast won the International Women in Podcasting awards for Entrepreneurial Inspiration and was shortlisted for Best Business Podcast at the British Podcast Awards.
It’s a lot I know, but this lived experience means that I can be sure when I tell you…
YOU REALLY CAN DO THIS…
Maybe you have a business idea that you believe in but you don’t know how to scope or market test. Maybe you have a live business that is showing promise and you want to understand what is possible and how to get there. Whatever stage you are at, by working with me you will get clear on exactly what you want to do, how to do it and more importantly why.
Working with me you can build a business that is not only an expression of your creativity and values but is also your legacy.
I started my career selling instant porridge pots to my friends and when I approached industry experts asking them how to get them into Waitrose they all said the same thing, ‘You can’t’.
I didn’t listen, I found a way and now I’m here to help you find yours. Click below to find out about group work (The REALWORK membership) and one-to-one (The REALWORK Method)…
