In recent months, I’m pleased to have helped a diverse range of organisations with their online trading needs. Each case is different – ranging from just an initial online training package through to full service ongoing engagements, depending on the business’ needs and budget. See Services for a detailed breakdown of services and rates.

Case Studies:
- ADRENALINE CYCLES
Adrenaline Cycles is an independent family owned bicycle retailer, located in Vermont South in Melbourne. Paul, the owner, is a long-time friend, and I’ve advised him on marketing options for the store for some time now. Recently he realised that online sales were becoming an important facet of his trading mix, and he invited me to assist him in an ongoing capacity in developing this platform, which is what sparked my interest in e-commerce.
To date, the work we’ve undertaken includes strategic positioning, industry research, competitor analysis, supply chain optimisation and order fulfilment. We’ve built a basic website and geared up his eBay presence, and Adrenaline Cycles is now the number 1 retailer of Shimano bike shoes in Victoria.

[jbox vgradient=”#d8d8d8|#ffffff” shadow=”7″ jbox_css=”border:4px solid #9d9d9d;]”My name is Erika and my business partner Lyra and I sought Dennis’ services recently to set up our online herbal tea company NOT-TEA.com.au.
Dennis was both very helpful in advising us on how to go about this, as well as patient with our changes and lack of knowledge in this area. This was new to both of us and Dennis was always available to advise us of all of our options, and guide us through all the steps that needed to be taken.
We were extremely happy with the end result of our website and the amount of work that was put into it. Both of us would highly recommend Dennis to anyone who wishes to grow their business or start up an online business.
In fact I was so pleased with his services that I have continued consulting with Dennis as my marketing mentor to help grow my naturopathy and personal training business.”
