Time to Meet Virginia

Virginia Rabbitts is the author behind The Business Mountain series, bringing over 30 years of hands-on business experience to the table. She’s built and scaled businesses, selling products across the world, and now she’s here to help you climb your won Business Mountain.

Intro to Virginia

It all started back in 1998 when Virginia launched her first business, ‘SnugglesTime’. It was a steep learning curve, but with a family legacy in business that stretches all the way back to The Great Exhibition in 1851 – when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert endorsed her family’s enterprise – entrepreneurship was in her blood.

Over the years Virginia mastered manufacturing, logistics, dispatch, warehousing, and so much more. She’s faced the same challenges every start-up founder knows and she’s collected the foundational business knowledge that she now shares in The Business Mountain books.

Family businesses since 1851

Virginia Rabbitts’ entrepreneurial roots trace back to 1851, when her family journeyed from York, Yorkshire to showcase a handcrafted wash basin with turned legs at The Great Exhibition, As skilled carpenters and turners, they became known for producing “all things in wood” including many of the patterns for the famed Mosquito aricraft.

Generations later, Virginia followed in their footsteps, exhibiting her own products at shows worldwide, with orders pouring in from across the globe.

The Birth of the Business Mountain

In January 2020, Virginia Rabbitts found her moment-the chance to write the business books everyone had been asking for.

As a busy founder, stopping everything to write seemed impossible. But when Covid-19 hit, Virginia pivoted. While helping to ease the impact of the pandemic, she also started building The Business Mountain-a guide for those dreaming of running their own business.

Over the past four years, Virginia worked tirelessly on these books, determined to create the ultimate business blueprints.

The results? Incredible.

Draft readers didn’t just read-they took action. Many now run their own businesses, saying:

“I could never have done this without your book.”

Now it’s your turn to climb your own Business Mountain.
