Ready to Grow Beyond Ireland

Working with Alison Cummins on developing the Snugabugz export plan was an invaluable experience. She is extremely knowledgeable and brought a wealth of insight to the process. Having run her own business, Alison really understands the challenges small businesses face and this made her guidance both practical and relevant. She provided a clear, concise and actionable export plan that has given us real direction and confidence moving forward. I would highly recommend Alison to any business looking to grow internationally’

We had the privilege of working with Alison Cummings on the development of Spear & Arrow’s Export Marketing Strategy. Alison brought exceptional expertise, structure, and clarity to the process, delivering a comprehensive strategy that was both visionary and practical. Her ability to analyse complex market opportunities—across Ireland, the UK, the EU and translate them into actionable sales, marketing, and operational plans has given us a clear roadmap for sustainable international growth. The strategy she produced not only reflects a deep understanding of our brand values and industry trends, but also provides measurable KPIs and export-focused solutions that will support us for years to come. Alison’s professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering excellence made her a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her to any business seeking to expand into new markets with confidence and clarity

Before working with Yvonne, we had an ambition to expand our international footprint and become more strategic in our actions, but lacked a clear roadmap and structure for how to do it effectively and efficiently. After the Export Development Plan, we had a well-defined strategy that broke down the opportunities by market, gave us confidence in our priorities, and highlighted the practical steps we needed to take to grow in a stable fashion. As a result, we’re now moving forward with clarity, targeting the right markets with a much stronger chance of success in the near future

Working with Alison Cummins at AC Insights has been a huge help for Honestly.ie. Her expertise and guidance were invaluable in getting our shelf life and processes right. This was a very complicated and stressful part of the business for us to navigate but thanks to Alison’s support, we now have full confidence in our products reaching customers at their best quality and with a longer shelf life without compromising our natural ingredients list. I’d highly recommend her to any food business looking for clear, professional insights and reliable results.
