To be honest, there’s nothing more frustrating than feeling stretched, out of control or overwhelmed in your business…
Let’s face it… If you’re a pharmacist, you probably spent YEARS mastering your craft before becoming qualified to help patients. Yet when it comes to business, you’re expected to run a multimillion dollar company with limited experience.
Even if you’re confident in your management ability (or entrepreneurial flare), there’s a lot of pieces to the puzzle that you have to handle. Sales, marketing, workflows, finances – they all need to be mastered to create a successful company.
If you’re answering ‘Yes!’ to any of these questions,
you need help in your business…
Do you work IN your business, not ON your business?
And you’re struggling to find the balance between daily tasks and growth activities.
Have you lost confidence in your ability to create effective workflows & processes?
And your staff are demotivated or engaging with patients in a transactional manner.
Are you struggling to adapt to the current climate or differentiate your offer?
And you’re waking up in a cold sweat thinking about e-Commerce pharmacies.
Are you focused too heavily on perfection instead of progress?
And a failure to think strategically results in KPIs being missed on a regular basis.
Is your business failing to reach the heights it hit before government reforms?
And things just haven’t progressed at the rate you would have liked.
Are you feeling stressed or resentful about your work-life balance?
And you’re spending far too long at work and not enough time with your family.
I help you put the right people, processes, systems and technology in place so you
spend less time on low-level tasks and more time moving your business forward – all to
achieve greater customer care and personal satisfaction.

If you’re a pharmacy owner, you might be facing some serious challenges that weren’t even on your radar a few years ago…
With the emergence of discount pharmacies, e-Commerce stores and government reforms, things have come a long way since the good old days – when owning a pharmacy was a way to make money without working yourself to the bone.
Nowadays, you’re probably working long hours every day – without the guarantee that your effort is going to result in improved performance. It’s getting increasingly difficult to boost your business’ bottom line in a highly-competitive space.
There’s possibly a weight on your shoulders to be innovative, forward-thinking and ambitious. But when there are so many plates spinning, it’s easier said than done – especially when you feel like you’re facing up to your problems alone.
Even worse… You’re not living the life you expected or achieving the targets you set for yourself in the first place!
When you started this business, you probably hoped you’d have more freedom with your finances, your schedule and your family. But in reality, you’re working longer hours, spending less time with loved ones and possibly making less revenue than before.
Not just that, but providing great service for your patients isn’t easy when you’re up against financial, operational and strategic pressures. Your drive to make an impact in your community and deliver positive health outcomes might have been forced to take a back seat.
Your desire to leave the world in a better place might be burning stronger than ever, but putting it into action is proving difficult…
Pharmacy is what you do best, but when it comes to business – things don’t always run quite so smoothly. In a fast-moving, ever-changing industry, you seem to come up against new setbacks every day – often, with no clear plan of action on how to move forward.
You’re trying to create something that people can benefit from. But with the pressure of new-wave competitors, rising business costs and family commitments, it might feel like you’re on an endless rollercoaster ride going at breakneck speed.
As a pharmacy owner, it takes the experience and insight of someone external to find clarity and show you the path ahead…
When you’re running a business in the healthcare space, it’s incredibly easy to get bogged down in the day-to-day operations. You end up working IN your business not ON your business – and you can start to lose sight of the bigger picture.
That’s why it’s incredibly useful to draw on the experience of someone with a fresh perspective. But when there’s nobody to turn to internally, the experience of an outside coach can help you act rationally and in the best interests of your company.
When it comes to pharmacy, professional guidance based on years of experience helps you build a profitable business that competes in a highly-competitive space – especially with e-health and government-funded services coming to the fore.
By allowing a coach into your business to help you create a clear roadmap to success, you can regain control of your processes, staff and delivery – as well as your work-life balance so you can spend more time with the people that matter most to you.
So… How Can I Help You Achieve All Of This And More?
By coaching you, guiding you and working with you in a way that
focuses on five key pillars of future performance…
Mindset
Develop the positive mindset you need to run a profitable business and optimise your belief systems in a way that helps you drive consistent improvement.
Leadership
Lead by example through learning from the mistakes of others, respecting competitors and understanding the needs of staff - as well as their intrinsic drivers.
Planning
Help your business achieve its purpose through innovation and stay agile in a fast-changing world - all while aligning your core vision and values with your team.
Marketing
Give your business the best chance of attracting and retaining customers by adding value to communities and engaging with your audience in meaningful ways.
Sales
Ensure your business moves in the right direction with rising revenue figures from quality clients - so you can compete on loyalty, profitability and price.
How Business Coaching
For Pharmacies Actually Works…
Identify Where Your Issues Are, Discover What You Need To Change & Implement The Processes Needed To Make It Happen!
Coaching and guidance isn’t just about telling you what’s wrong or right in your pharmacy business. It’s about showing you the internal workings of your operations so you can understand your issues and learn strategies to make improvements.
By sharing fresh ideas and innovative tools, we can overcome obstacles together and create the confidence you need to reach your full potential as a pharmacist or pharmacy business owner. That’s when you can see real, measurable growth for the long-term.
Here’s How We’ll Move Through
The Coaching Process…
1. Commitment Assessment
Your future success comes down to your willingness to change. If you’re ready to accept the help of an expert, work tirelessly and embrace a new path for your business, you’ll be in a great position to achieve amazing results. Before getting started, we’ll get to know each other a little better on a quick call to discuss your business performance, current challenges and plans for the future.
2. Analysis
Analysis and evaluation are a major part of reaching peak levels of performance – and you’ll be able to learn from somebody who’s been there, done it and seen it all before in pharmacy businesses. We’ll take time to observe your workflows, systems and processes to get a deeper understanding of internal perspectives, identify any problem areas and human resources limitations – as well as any wider business issues.
3. Strategy & Planning
Problems in the pharmacy industry are unique and widespread – so every response must be carefully tailored to each business based on its culture, physical space and team capabilities. Once we’ve learned more about your business, we can put an appropriate plan of action in place to automate, innovate and make lasting changes that stand the test of time. No more catch-all solutions!
4. Implementation
Successful businesses are action-taking businesses, so the final stage is to put our approach into practice. Bespoke solutions require bespoke implementation strategies – so we’ll work as a team (including your leaders and key team members) to quickly and effectively achieve your business goals. If the trajectory is a little slower than anticipated, we can take more time to train and develop your talent.
5. Accountability
The results we achieve are driven by our high levels of commitment and our willingness to follow the process through to completion. That’s why accountability plays such a huge part in what we do. To ensure our continued success, everyone involved in your business will work tirelessly to keep each other on track – whether it’s encouragement given from me to you or from you to your team.
If You Want To Truly Understand The Value a
Coach & Mentor Can Bring To Your Pharmacy Business,
Just Take a Look At This…
This Is A Day In Your Pharmacy BEFORE Working
With A Coach… Sound Familiar?
Things don’t run smoothly unless you’re physically there. There are no workflows, SOPs or automation processes to take the weight off your shoulders and let your operations work independently. You can’t take a holiday and expect the company to grow and prosper in your absence.
You feel disorganised. Your office is a mess – and you can’t seem to get into your flow or find time to work on high-level tasks that take your business forward. Your time is spent serving others, and you’re beginning to lose sight of the bigger picture for your personal and professional targets.
The pressure is starting to build, and you worry that you’re not equipped to deal with the management side of the business. You feel confident in your clinical knowledge of pharmacy, but the other pieces of the puzzle just won’t fall into place. Even worse, your competitors are breathing down your neck.
On a personal level, you’re worried whether you’re going to be able to pay the bills at the end of the month. Stress levels are through the roof and it’s starting to negatively impact on your relationships with the people you care about. You just wish things were how you’d hoped when you first started.
And This Is a Day In Your Pharmacy AFTER Working With a Coach…
You have an automated business that works on its own – without relying on you to physically be there to guide the ship. There are proven workflows, SOPs and processes that relieve pressure on leaders by creating reliable systems. You can take some well-earned rest without your business stagnating.
You feel in control. Low-level tasks are automated or handled by team members – so you can finally focus on the stuff that drives your business forward. Your time is your own, spent building a brand that adds value to its community and cares for its patients in a professional manner.
For the first time in years, stress isn’t keeping you up at night. You feel comfortable and confident in handling the management side of your business – alongside your pharmacy expertise. You feel like your business is making big strides in the right direction and securing its financial future.
While other pharmacies are suffering from the highest rate of closures and repossessions, you’re confident and comfortable in the success of your business. Time when you’re not working is worry-free and you’re able to relax in a positive, healthy environment with your family and people you love.
But Right Now, I Want To Take a Moment To
Explain Why I’m Qualified To Give You Advice
(and how I know my stuff…)
Well… I spent over 20 years working in pharmacies and 11 years as a pharmacist. I know exactly what you’re going through. And I’ve dealt with all of the problems you’re facing!
I’ve lived and breathed healthcare since I was just a boy. And it’s consumed my life ever since! Born to a pharmacist mother and accountant father, I was introduced at a very young age to both sides of the healthcare industry – the thankless, selfless side of caring for patients and the pragmatic, systematic calculation of company data.
Together, they’ve given me the tools I need to not only flourish in my own career, but to help others do the same. I wholeheartedly understand the challenges you’re facing – but I also know how to overcome them. Over the years, I’ve built up the grit, determination and strong leadership style that drives achievement for everyone I work with.
And Here’s The Proof…
- I grew up in a pharmacy and started work when I was just 10 years old And by 14 I was training 4th-year pharmacy students on dispensing medication.
- I completed a Bachelors in Pharmacy from the University of Queensland And I’ve completed courses in Fitness, Frontline Management and Information Technology.
- I entered Pharmacy ownership in 2011 joining TerryWhite Chemmart as Co-Proprietor
And was awarded the ‘TerryWhite Chemmart Pharmacist of the Year’ in 2017.
- I co-founded the Innovative Pharmacy Group to grow the industry And brought the best-of-the-best together to share their wisdom and experience
- I led a number of pharmacies to their most profitable performance in decades And began to develop proven workflows that transformed pharmacy businesses.
- I built a pharmacy that was recognised as one of the top five in the country. And, after growing revenue by $4million+, sold it for three times the industry average, at the age of just 33.
Now, as an industry-leading healthcare business consultant, I use my experience
and business acumen to empower fellow pharmacists and pharmacy business
owners to achieve the most outstanding results.

Finding ways to do things quickly, easily and effectively is the key to a successful business. You’ll learn to build automated processes that get the most out of your resources, add major value to customers and boost your bottom line.

To see change, you need to clearly communicate your goals in a way that unites your team and gets everyone working to their potential. We’ll identify bottlenecks in your systems and show you how to solve them in a customer-centric manner.
Passion
More than anything, I love mentoring pharmacy owners to help them build a big, beautiful business they can be proud of. Through motivation, accountability and action, we can bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
Experience
You’ll be partnering with someone who’s been in your shoes -someone with a great pedigree in pharmacy and business strategy. We’ll share our knowledge, combine our expertise and work together to drive your business in the right direction.
Meaningful Moments
The healthcare industry is one of huge potential – but it won’t be for long if you fail to interact with your patients in a meaningful way. You’ll learn to run your business with a human touch – one that makes patients feel a sense of care and belonging.
Community Development
Collaboration is key – and healthcare companies should be doing all they can to make their mark in their local areas. We’ll explore how to expand your reach into schools, care facilities and other businesses – all to build a trustworthy, reliable brand.

“Unlike Other Consultants, Zamil Has Actually Lived His Process”
Many consultants offer theoretical advice but Zamil is all practical. He's lived his process and through his Pharmacy background, he effectively identified and resolved issues from within my business (even wearing the white jacket to dig deeper). He's added great value to me both professionally and personally. I'm now less stressed, super focused and best of all, have more quality time with my family.
“I told him I wasn’t writing a testimonial!"
It’s weird, right? Who uses their spouse as a sales pitch? But honestly, if you don’t check out these courses, you’re missing out… and I’ll never hear the end of it at dinner!
“He Turned Our Goals Into Practical Steps We Could Implement”
Zamil isn't like the big consulting firms out there that deliver cookie-cutter insights and reports. He assimilated himself within our organisation and became a part of our team. Working with both local and international talent, and also our own customers, he delivered tailored and bespoke solutions which have helped us gain absolute clarity to effectively promote our new products to Australian Pharmacies.
“His Methods Are Unlike Anybody In Australia”
In comparison to other consultants, working with Zamil has been truly valuable due to the credibility he brings as a previous business owner and Pharmacist. You don’t know what you don’t know. So having someone come in from the outside to give a different perspective has offered great insights into how we can better help our own clients.
“What I Valued Most Was How Detailed He Was”
“Zamil Approaches His Work With A Level Of Professionalism And Perfectionism”
I contracted Zamil Solanki in 2019 to assist with a project where we needed a Pharmacist's perspective. Not only did he deliver from a pharmacy point-of-view, but Zamil’s business acumen and strategising have been an added bonus to this project. Zamil approaches his work with a level of professionalism and perfectionism that becomes a true asset to your business.
