What’s your one top tip for doing a deal?
Always highlight the"why" of what you’re selling. Remember, everyone is paying for convenience to make their lives easier, not more complicated.As a teenager I did hair for free for my family and for a small fee for those in my community. I also used to sew basic tops and shorts and my mom would sell them to her teacher friends at school. I started working at Steers when I began my tertiary education. My first formal job was with UWP Engineers.
Investing in myself. When you force yourself to overcome fear, you can follow your dreams. That is honestly the best investment you can make.Not everyone will see your vision or even like to see you transform into the person you should be, and that’s OK.Something that has been on my mind a lot lately is that fame doesn’t equate to fortune.
Was there ever a point at which you wanted to trade it all in for a different career? And if so, what would that career be? I wouldn’t do anything else. There’s nothing more precious or satisfying than seeing someone smiling and thanking us after seeing a transformation.I would prioritise solving crime and issues of fraud. It’s a virus that is eating away at societies and destroying economies. We are capable of doing so much better.
