A family run business, doing big things

Give us a call

Our growing team is based in central Wellington. Employing locally and upskilling young people has always been core to our brand and values. Providing opportunity, learning and development is a huge part of who we are.

We love coffee, cake and a robust discussion (debate..) about pop-culture, current events and cool stuff.

Our mission? To go above and beyond for you and your business.

Where it all started

Give us a call

2015

Iona started her own business consultancy with 20+ years of experience in growing businesses.

2019

Hurrah - Ben joined!

2021

We were very busy through covid, Ben graduated and Jason joined the team. Working remotely, we met at my dining table once a week.

2022

An office came up on my FB feed, the boys said yes, and we got all grown up and moved into our first office. It felt way cooler than it actually was!

2023

We are really growing now, Kira has joined the team hurrah! But the office is getting a bit small now...

2024

New Office, new hair colour for Kira and new operations manager as Daniella joined the team!

2025

A new look, new logo and you guessed it a new website

Ben has a background in graphic design and illustration as well as web development which means he has the rare ability to design both visually and practically. An innate problem solver he’s the one that gets involved when we need clever solutions, researching new functionality or design.

For us, it’s not just about talking the talk, but actively walking the walk.

Our commitment to community service is deeply rooted in the values that define us as a web design company.

Daniella and the team have been amazing to work with. With design not being a strong suit for me, they were able to create an amazing website with little info from myself which made my life so much easier. The business is relaxed to work with and keep things simple. They are very well priced as well. If you are thinking about a website (As a business owner, you should give this serious thought) I would highly recommend Grow My Business.

Massive thanks to Daniella and the team at Grow My Business. They were great to deal with, very patient, and went above and beyond to help us create what was effectively two websites under one domain. We're stoked with the end result and couldn't be happier with our new website. Highly recommend!

We’ve had a fantastic experience working with Grow My Business on the development of our new website. From the outset, the process felt streamlined and really well managed. The team took the time to genuinely understand Orchestra Wellington as an organisation, which brought a fresh and valuable perspective to the project. They struck a great balance between guiding us with best practice while still ensuring the final product felt authentic to who we are. We especially appreciated their block-based build approach, which has empowered our team to confidently take over day-to-day management of the site. That sense of ownership has been hugely valuable. Communication throughout was clear, responsive, and supportive, and the team themselves were an absolute pleasure to work with. A special thanks to Iona, Daniella, and the wider team for their care, professionalism, and collaborative approach. We’re really proud of the end result and would highly recommend Grow My Business to others.

Incredible to work with re-designing our website - speedy, easy systems to make comments on progress which were explained to us using video format, small enough that you get individual attention from dedicated staff, easily contactable and really got us!! Would highly recommend and will continue to use.

We recently used Grow My Business for the design and build of a brand new website for Critter. Having worked with them in my previous role, I knew they'd be a breeze to work with and that we'd be thrilled with the results – and we are. They worked with me to swiftly turn a homepage concept into a multi-page website that fits our early-stage needs perfectly, and were always responsive and helpful in response to our requests. As usual, I highly recommend working with Grow! Noush Isaac, Chief Marketing Officer, Crittersoft

We had a fantastic experience working with the Grow My Business team. They made the whole website build process easy, stress-free, and fast, taking our brief and running with it while adding valuable suggestions along the way. They stayed true to our brand, were open and responsive to feedback, and turned around edits quickly. Everything was delivered on time, with a professional and friendly approach throughout. Highly recommend!
