Profile
Hi, I am Greg Harrison, CA, Entrepreneur and Author.
I have developed skills over a long career that allow me to be a problem solver and value creator.
My work experience has covered a range of industries;
- Oenology & Viticulture
- Transport
- Manufacturing
- Import/Export
- Fashion
- Hospitality and Hotels
- Lagre Scale (Stadium Level) Event management
- Tech startups (both clients and my own)
I have distilled all this experience into my own program which I use to assist clients in looking at their business in a new way, with the emphasis on finding the gaps or bottle necks that create revenue/profit leaks or impediments to growth. It is called the C.H.I.C.K 3C’s approach.
- Cash is King
- Have what you can get rid of
- Invest well
- Communicate & Communicate again
- Keep it simple stupid
- Control
- Compliance
- Contribution
Inevitably it will be one of the above areas stopping you achieving your goals. I work from home for a small number of clients at any given time which allows me to have a competitive fixed price fee structure. You will undoubtedly get a more personalised attentive service that delivers more.

Client Reviews
I have known Greg for many years, and still his ability to grasp complex scenarios and break them down into simple concepts amazes me. His skills in developing systems and solutions to enhance the productivity and reporting capabilities is a skill that makes Gregory an asset to any organisation. Greg's personality and smile always has a way of making my most stress filled days seem easier.
Gary Christieson - Director
Greg has been our advisor for a number of years and has advised on a number of projects, both business and personal. He is extremely knowledgeable and can explain things simply. His calling card is his responsiveness and ability to get results.
Richard Warburton - Director
I have known Greg for nearly 5 years. I was first introduced to Greg through one of his companies that I later became part of. While initially I understood Greg to have exceptional financial management skills and experience I quickly also learnt Greg entrepreneurial skills and drive, his understanding of how to bring a product from idea to inception, how to bring a team together with financial, development and sales knowledge behind his idea and onto the same page. It has been an honour working with Greg and to continue to see him delivery his knowledge and experience to many recipients.
