Driving a hot trail between Richmond and Charlottesville, VA, Paige Wilson, Founder/CEO of Naborforce, needed the right person to be her feet on the ground to grow her business beyond Richmond. She was looking for someone who would connect with her vision to promote productive, connected, and joyous aging and living. Having Robin on board was a critical decision leading to Naborforce’s success expanding into additional remote locations.
“With a focus on service delivery and business growth, Robin challenges the status quo of established thinking that leads to improved strategy and business development.
Not only did Robin help us successfully execute Naborforce’s expansion plan, she also added value to the business model and the entire organization. Quickly grasping our model and exhibiting superior communication skills, Robin gained my trust and confidence in her leadership and strategy. She creatively opened doors in the community and brought a fresh perspective to our existing practices. ”

The Scrappy Elephant is a used arts & crafts store that makes creative experiences affordable while reducing waste! With a vision of diverting thousands of pounds of usable materials from the landfill and creating a fun, safe place for people of all ages to meet, Sarah Sweet had an exciting idea. Sarah was a former art teacher and working Mom, so she had the craftiness to bring her vision to life, but she lacked experience in the entrepreneurial field. Robin provided Sarah with much-needed clarity, connection, and experience to help her open The Scrappy Elephant in McIntire Plaza.
“Working with Robin was transformational because today I have an open growing brick and mortar retail space. When we first met, Scrappy Elephant was just an idea. From the beginning Robin set the stage for open, honest, direct communication. Carefully probing and listening as I described my vision, goals and challenges, Robin immediately identified action items that I could make into a checklist. That clarity of focus and guidance was critical to my successful launch of the Scrappy Elephant.
As a working Mom with no prior experience running a small business, I could cut through the chaos and get to work. Good thing since 2 months later, we had to shift everything due to the Pandemic. I could easily have put everything on hold while waiting to see what would happen. Instead, Robin offered a variety of solutions, that has led to my open and growing store.”
