I just wanted to say thank you so much for yesterday. I walked away from our meeting feeling very excited, relieved and happy. I can see a future and am definitely considering to go ahead with the package you have emailed me. Just going to give myself a little time to think and will be back in touch very soon. Thank you again.

I’ve experienced Dave to be holding an infectious enthusiasm over things he does in his professional and personal lives. A God fearing gentleman with high respect and value for commitments and relationships with clear and transparent transactions. TouchSub to me is a perfect example of how a Business and Brand can go places through the Founder’s sheer passion combined with never fading resilience. I wish Dave all success in the years ahead!

Jim & Robyn Nottingham
Managers
We first met Dave as he arrived at the Christian Books Melanesia head office in Wewak, East Sepik Province of Papua New Guinea in 2018. He came as stand-in General Manager and consultant. We honestly didn't know what hit us! Energy, common sense, vision and engagability were such that our synergies quickly carried us to a thoroughly exciting critical mass.What resulted was a totally congenial explosion of ideas = action. More creative work was accomplished than any of us could have imagined. Dave...innovator and facilitator with a joyful "can-do...let's do" ENERGY.. We cannot commend him enough!

Great Mentor
CEO
Thank you for being such a great mentor! You’re there when I need you and always encouraging. Thanks
GodsArtGallery.com
I have known David Padfield for a period of around 8 years.
David has mentored my somewhat amateurish attempts to set up a website, GodsArt Gallery.com and I found him to be the consummate professional with a studied commitment to ‘get the job done’ – and the skill to back it up.
He has operated his own businesses – very successfully – and has a commercial acumen second to none. He has that astute ability to know when to push forward and when to slow the pace to get that strategic result in the end.
In his personal life he is generous to a fault, thoroughly reliable and has that keen sense of knowing when to simply sit and listen.
But the utmost quality of his life is more than that relating to growing your business and it is that most important personal ingredient – INTEGRITY.
David Padfield is a man you can trust whether the business is booming or the chips are down. I am proud to call him my friend.

Gained Bottom line profit
Director
Dave started with us only 3 months ago and soon showed us that by restructuring our business we could release an extra $1.5m in bottom line profit for our shareholders. We ran it past our accountant and yes he agreed. I'm surprised the accountant had not suggested this before.Dave thanks for this. I will be recommending you to others. Whoever you work with I know will grow.
Gail Freer

You have restored confidence in me and really helped pull me out of my feeling of overwhelm and failure. Very grateful you reached out to me. Will get started on the homework and keep in touch along the way until we next meet.
Thank you so much for your encouragement, I really appreciate this type of support - it's what I have been missing in this journey. Was beginning to feel like I was failing and had no way to fix it! Really enjoyed our first catch-up today too.
