Which sounds great. A successful business that is on-line too. A lifestyle of motivation an freedom. But actually the truth was anything but, as we will find out creating a business is easy enough in principle. But creating a monster that takes up every second of your time is even easier. And after more than ten years of running his agency, he knew that he had do some serious changing of procedures so that he could free himself from the business and start living life. He went from being a slave to his business wallowing in “misery and despair” to creating a business that is very profitable and gives him free time to travel and to do the things he loves. But of course a business is not just built on hustle and effort, but also experience gained over many years. And this was certainly the case with today’s guest, as he started his career back in 2005 by exhibiting at tradeshows, working on marketing campaigns and preparing demo software for potential investors and clients. Before working for three years at the Wilfrid Laurier University teaching students business labs part-time, whilst he worked on creating the monster. So what did he do wrong which he knew that he had to change to create the freedom that he is living today? And can he now point the way for everyone, or is every situation individual to the creator?
