Built to Sell
....Favourite podcast? Should definitely ask that question for obvious reasons...
Oof, tough question. Ironically, I don’t have much time to listen to podcasts anymore running a podcast network. But the two shows that got it all started for me and made me fall in love with the medium and it’s power are: 1. Small Business, Big Marketing w/ Timbo Reid. 2. The Smart Passive Income Podcast w/ Pat Flynn
What could people find you doing when not creating incredible content for Australia's most prestigious startup focused podcast network? 😎
When I’m not working, what I really love to do to take a load off and relax is to do some more work… Just kidding (kind of), it’s either renovating my beautiful home that was built in the 60s and has a lovely old rustic charm to it, pottering about in my shed and spending time with my family. My beautiful partner Carolyn, my step-son Lewis and my daughter Lacey.
What is one thing people would never know about you based off your appearance?
I love musicals.
Best piece of advice you've ever been given?
1. "There is always opportunity, you just need to be looking". Related is a quote from Richard Branson. "Opportunities are like Buses, there’s always another one coming".
2. "Keep swinging that axe. The tree will fall". In the same vein, "You have to love the process not the result".
3. “Energy flows where attention goes”. That one’s from Tony Robbins, but a similar one is from Napoleon Hill “Focus on the possibilities for success, not on the potential for failure”
Favourite band?
If I told you, I'd have to kill you.
