Ben, it’s great to hear you enjoyed the holiday. Welcome back. “Thanks, Charlie, I did enjoy the time away from the factory, I took the opportunity to do a lot of thinking …” Holidays are good for thinking Ben, have another biscuit with the tea … what do we need to discuss? “Ok,…

I’ve been around a while, discovered some success and I’m blessed to have been working with some wonderfully talented people.

The lid of the laptop came down. ‘Snapchat’ now terminated … ‘Ok, so I get it, I need to be seen to be considered ‘worthy,’ is that it? Well, yes you could be right there Ben, it’s the ‘people buy from people’ thing, when people make those significant buying decisions they’ll want to meet up with…

Those in the Network see it daily. Some who have it and some who do not. Building the business is not simply about ‘showing up,’ it’s more about being there to set course and follow through to destination. Commitment. There is no middle road for the commited entrepreneur, see if you recognise some of the…
