Bio

In a nutshell…

Realising quickly that a £40,000+ investment in university and professional exams to become a lawyer wasn’t going to provide me with the quick return on investment that I thought it would or the lifestyle to go with it, I was motivated to leave my high-paid job in London to learn how to start and grow a business on the Internet.

The first business I got into after leaving my job when I turned 23 in 2008 was a small online franchise that I bought from a franchise exhibition in London. I ran it successfully and profitably for just under 2 years before deciding that I could ‘go it alone’ without piggy backing off an existing brand or a ‘business in a box’ that anyone could buy.

Since then, I have built up my own brands with products and services that are sold around the world today. Online marketing is what got me started in this industry and that is still the core product of all my businesses which is now evolving into buying and selling online businesses to expand and grow faster than ever before.

Remember that kid at school who was always selling stuff to the other kids out of his locker and in the playground? Yep, that was me.

The longer story…

When I was 15, I was fascinated by the fact that I could buy something for £1 and sell it for £2 to somebody else who wanted the same thing but didn’t know how to get it for themselves. This simplified concept of business is how I became an accidental entrepreneur whilst still at school and started thinking about all the other things that I could apply this same principle to! It wasn’t long before I was ‘supplying’ all sorts of things to kids in the playground (nothing dodgy, all above board!). I was a jack-of-all-trades and master of nothing at first, but then I really drilled into my niche – selling posters of then-famous boy bands to girls at school. I had found my hungry market of buyers who would, quite literally, buy anything with a boy band picture or slogan on it.

I had no idea that what I was doing was running a ‘business’. It all made sense years later when I started a real business in the real world!

On my way to school on Monday morning, I’d spend all my lunch money on out-of-date pop star magazines such as Top of The Pops and Smash Hits which I bought cheaply (because they were out of date!) thanks to a little deal I did with the newsagent near the school. He didn’t know I was reselling the posters inside the magazines, I think he was just happy to get rid stock that he couldn’t sell otherwise! By the end of the week i’d have my initial investment back and a profit on top.

When I look back and connect the dots, it looks and sounds like a real business: I had found myself a few suppliers of my product, had a loyal customer base, had ‘staff’ (i.e. my friends) who would deliver the posters and collect the payment from the customers (i.e. the girls in the playground) in return for a percentage of every sale. All I had to do as the ‘business owner’ was keep up the relationships with my suppliers and keep my customers happy by meeting their demand for the latest posters of the Backstreet Boys and Take That!

This carried on for a while before I got into doing the same thing online. I bought domains on the Internet and sold them to whoever offered me more for them and continued to be fascinated that I could buy something for one price and sell it to someone else for a different price. I still didn’t know that this was business and it all only made sense when I look back on it now.

All of this fun stopped after my GCSEs and I started my journey down the academic path to a ‘secure’ job and a career as a lawyer. I studied hard, got my grades at school and then my Law degree. I tried to start businesses whilst at university but nothing really worked out. I successfully applied for a Subway franchise during my 2nd year at uni and had agreed in principle to open the store on the student campus where thousands of students gathered every day for lunch. It was a sure thing with guaranteed profits for many years to come. I had the franchise paperwork ready, contracts ready to sign, dates for training….and then the bank told me I couldn’t have the £30,000 loan I applied for (the actual Subway franchise fee was less than £10,000, the rest was for fitting out the store). I was gutted and I remember phoning home to say that I wasn’t going to be opening the first Subway store on campus. I had my heart set on doing this and but for the lack of money, I would have done it. I wasn’t upset for too long though because it was a Thursday that I got rejected by the bank and that means student night at uni – time to forget that I just had my first failure in business!

I focused on my Law degree after that and went on to pass my LPC at The College of Law in London with a Commendation in 2007. With no gap year or break I started working at top city law firms in London with a great salary for a graduate and a potentially greater legal career ahead.

I was good at my job but I didn’t love it. I didn’t have the same passion for practicing law that I thought I had and I quickly started to lose interest in my job after nearly 2 years of working. I decided to ‘take a break’ and see what other opportunities were out there to start a business or do something else. Naturally, I looked for ways to start a business on the Internet and that’s when I found this whole industry.

I applied the same principles that I learned back in school about business, i.e. to keep it simple and not over complicate the process of doing business. Today, I have built a training and consultancy business as well as various done-for-you service businesses with clients all around the world.

Some of my achievements:

• spoken at conferences and seminars to over 10,000+ people in 7 countries
• participated in a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS record-breaking event
• developed a respected and growing client base in the UK, Dubai, Australia, South Africa and USA
• took part in a joint venture that generated £100,000 in sales in 24 hours (read about it here)
• Skydived and walked on fire to raise money for charities that I support
• built a passionate team to work with spread across 4 countries
• travelled 150,000 miles around the world

My focus at the moment is on the following:

• consulting and training businesses around the world on their online marketing strategies to get more clients online
• building new businesses with passionate teams in place which add value to new and existing clients
• teaching other entrepreneurs how they can use the Internet to replace their job income and live the lifestyle that they want
