Case study

Gratzer Graphics

Design Studio USA (global)

Colleen Gratzer runs Gratzer Graphics, a design studio. She worked with Tristan remotely — across time zones, across the Pacific.

In her own words:

“This is Colleen Gratzer from Gratzer Graphics. I have to say a huge thank you to Tristan. First off, I’m on the other side of the world from him but it never ever seems like it — he’s so responsive and attentive and he’s super genuine. After a couple of video calls I felt like we were old friends.

Tristan really has a knack for understanding what is holding you back in your business. Every week he set up a plan for me about what I needed to do next to overcome those obstacles. And those are things you can only see from outside your own situation — it could be something personal, not even necessarily something business-related, that’s holding you back in your business.

Tristan was always impartial but interested and insightful. I could feel how much he was invested in my business’s success. He also had me accountable and provided tons of encouragement — especially checking in with me between some of our weekly calls when he knew I had a lot of personal issues to deal with outside of business.

So if you’re thinking of working with Tristan, I highly recommend him.”

"Tristan really has a knack for understanding what is holding you back in your business."
