  • A Start-up Website Horror Story

    In Russell and Natasha’s first year of owning a Business, they needed

    help to maintain and fix various bugs in their acquired website. A greedy cowboy
    tried to take advantage, hold their website to ransom and this forced the new

    cowboy tactics.

  • Starting Again- Intro to starting from scratch

    my first business enabled me to experience what true entrepreneurship was like when it was stressful and  what a  massive failure on a colossal scale can do. I want my very first career company and it was pretty much a huge challenge for me but Fast forward two years owning that business I almost went bankrupt to the tune of $50,000.

    I managed to get myself out of that hole by paying off all my debts selling my assets and starting from scratch all over again. It was my perseverance and the fear of not being able to provide for my family that got me out of the black hole that I was currently in. So Fast forward 10 years I now own two small businesses with my fantastic business partner and wife and right now we're looking at expanding over the ditch.
    it is my mission to take you through the fantastic journey of creating and
    developing a small business and helping you avoid the mistakes that I have made.
    I am Russell Oliver and welcome to this podcast.

  • So you failed HARD in your start-up

    We talk about how to deal with failure in your small business, your start-up and also how to deal with it. We don’t talk about offering solutions leading to success, but how to deal with it in the moment. In this episode we take our client's view on what the bitter taste of failure feels like. Don't worry we have full permission, in fact Johnathan really wants this known so the true reality of failure is known. It's not how you overcome failure that is important, it is what you do with failure and how you embrace the opportunities that ir brings and the test that comes with it!
