Queen Bee & Co Reviews

Exceptional service and business support I should have written this review ages ago...sorry! Fantastic company from start to finish. Deborah and her husband are doing great, great things, especially for small businesses. Do reach out to them and attend their networking events and also reach out for business support too when needed. I can't think of anything negative to say about them and this is a testament to the great work they do.

I had a lovely time at In the Hive networking event at the White Hart Hotel last Tuesday! Debbie created such a warm, welcoming and supportive atmosphere that made it easy to connect with some truly inspiring local businesswomen. It was great to hear everyone introduce themselves and share the passion behind their businesses. There was a real sense of encouragement and community rather than competition, which made the morning feel both uplifting and energising. Thank you, Debbie, for bringing together such a wonderful group of women. I'm already looking forward to the next one!

I have attended a number of Deborah's networking events, she's a knowledgable, inviting host who makes everyone feel welcome and included. The events are always well attended with a wide range of knowledge and experience.

Debbie is a real organiser with a true passion for bringing women together. She has such a natural ability to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where women can connect, support one another, and genuinely learn from each other’s experiences. I had the great pleasure of attending one of her events and it was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The energy in the room was incredibly positive, inspiring, and uplifting. You could really feel the sense of community and encouragement that Debbie creates so effortlessly. What impressed me most was how authentic and supportive the whole experience felt — not just networking for the sake of networking, but real conversations, real inspiration, and real connections. I would highly recommend Debbie’s events to any woman looking to grow, connect, and surround herself with positive and driven people.

I recently joined in with the Women's World Weekender Event and it was a really excellent weekend. The speakers were all great and lovely people, each with really interesting talks. The food was also excellent and speaking for myself, I was very comfortable. I did enjoy a boogie - haven't done that in a while!! You have a wonderful knack of making every person feel welcome and seen! So thank you. Teresa Brill Teresa Brill Jewellery Ltd

Our Employment and Corporate Law team thoroughly enjoyed exhibiting at the Big Business Event at The Meres. The event was extremely well organised, with a great atmosphere and excellent networking opportunities throughout the day. It was fantastic to connect with so many local businesses and showcase how we support employers and businesses with practical legal advice. Thank you to the organisers for putting together such a successful event. We look forward to attending again.

I’m so happy with my new website…Tom has done an amazing job from start to finish. He really understood what I wanted and brought it all together beautifully. The whole process was smooth, and nothing was ever too much trouble. The end result looks professional, clean, and exactly right for my business.

I am now the proud owner of a brand new website thanks to Debbie & Tom. They both organised absolutely everything for me from arranging for a photographer to take new shots, arranging the location, helping me write the content and built it all super fast! I am absolutely over the moon that they have captured the essence of who I am and what my business is all about. I would highly recommend using Queen Bee & Co.

If you’ve never been to an In The Hive networking event, you’re missing out! These events are relaxed, focussed and full of people who genuinely want to help each other. There are no stuffy suits, no awkward conversations and you’ll never feel like you’re being sold to. You’ll meet friendly, like-minded business owners who are likely to become friends very quickly - and Debbie will be the first! She’s so warm and welcoming you’ll wish you came sooner. I couldn’t recommend these events enough. Nicola Auckland Nicola Auckland Photography

Thank you Queen Bee & Co for delivering such an outstanding workshop on business networking. Debbie is a highly experienced, warm, and charismatic facilitator who immediately created a safe and welcoming environment where everyone felt genuinely seen, heard, and valued. The session was engaging, practical, and expertly delivered. Our participants left with clear tools and simple exercises they could use straight away for networking, interviews, and professional introductions. Debbie’s approach was empowering and confidence-building, while remaining thoughtful and respectful of each individual’s background and experience. The feedback from the group was overwhelmingly positive. Many shared how supported they felt and how much clearer and more confident they now feel about presenting themselves. A truly impactful workshop combining professionalism, empathy, and real-world value. Highly recommended.

I have been going to Debbie's business get togethers and events for quite a few years now. Debbie is such a beautiful lady that welcomes everyone with such warmth and friendliness. Which makes for a great event, as everyone is at ease and shares their wisdom in a comfortable environment.

“I can honestly say it was a fabulous first experience, I loved the way you managed the time giving everyone an opportunity to present themselves and their business without feeling any pressure and really liked the ‘any questions’ which prompted lots of useful suggestions and advice. I will definitely be back next month. Thank you for the warm welcome Deborah Firmstone”

I used Debbie's website design and branding services to set up my business. I am really happy with the final product, the design reflects my brand and the website is built to a high standard. Debbie's advice has been helpful and clear along the way, and the design process has been collaborative.
