David Peters
David’s leadership philosophy has always been simple: support people, help them succeed and create opportunities for growth.
Michele’s career has centred around empowering people through training, coaching, communication and personal development.
Together they see Ladies Running Errands as more than a service business. It is an opportunity to support clients, mentor franchisees and continue building a trusted brand that genuinely makes life easier for everyday Australians.
David and Michele remain deeply grateful to Ladies Running Errands founder, Maria, whose friendship, vision and passion for helping others helped create the business that continues to serve communities today. They are proud to honour her legacy while leading Ladies Running Errands into its next chapter.
Together with their Foundation Four Franchisees, they look forward to continuing the growth of Ladies Running Errands with the same heart, care and commitment that has always defined the brand.
