Audience with

Our Livebusiness entrepreneurs have been competing to scoop the grand prize of a free mentoring team made up of leading business experts, but also vying to win a one-to-one consultation with former Dragon's Den member Rachel Elnaugh.

At the halfway stage of the Livebusiness growth challenge, Sam Fisher is just edging it in terms of votes, and so won the exclusive 'audience with' consultation. Remember the grand prize of the Livebusiness mentor team is still wide open and so keep voting for your favorite entrepreneur. Who wins, you decide!

Rachel had some very good advice that applies to all businesses around the subject of cash flow and having a clear vision for what success looks like in financial terms as well as keeping sight of your dreams and aspirations when things get tough. To find out how Sam got on with Rachel just click the film below.

Rachel Elnaugh is one of Britain's highest profile female entrepreneurs.

Having started her working life as an office junior, at the age of 24 she created the market leading experiences brand Red Letter Days on a shoestring budget from the front room of her home. Red Letter Days went on to generate over £100million in turnover in the 16 years that she ran it, and in doing so pioneered the UK's £250 million experiences sector.

This earned her an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2002, as well as being short listed for the 2001 Veuve Clicquot Businesswoman of the Year award and the Growing Business Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2002.

Then, in early 2005, Rachel shot to fame as one of the original Dragons in BBC TV's cult business show Dragon's Den.

After the well-publicised crash of Red Letter Days in 2005, which followed the ill-advised expansion of the business three years earlier, Rachel was famously bailed out by her fellow dragons and now is a successful business woman in her own right.

She is acting as a judge for this year's 'Enterprising Britain' awards and has recently been appointed as an ambassador for the Prince's Trust.

Rachel acts as mentor and consultant to a number of small businesses and launched her own unique Entrepreneurial Profiling System at the Business Start Up Show at London's Excel in April 2007.  She has also launched a series of Entrepreneurial Masterclasses.
