Having started my first sales job at the ripe age of 18, I spent the first few months working in a call centre, cold calling hundreds of people a day, trying to convince them to buy a product priced at a whopping $18k. Without success…This is where my passion (near-obsession) was ignited and began my journey of personal development and the desire to understand what made people buy (and what didn't)… I studied the deep psychology of this and thus I began the journey of improving my sales and marketing skills.By the age of 21, I had built a successful sales company and was personally earning in excess of $1.2mil a year.Then one day, it all came tumbling down. After a failed business partnership, I went from earning over $1.2mil a year to being $200K in debt and suddenly not having a job… All in one day.With a beautiful wife and daughter to support, I jumped straight into what I knew I would yet again thrive in…sales and marketing...Fast forward to today and I now run Yakk, a successful Digital Marketing Agency, that I built by cold calling from my bedroom with only $50 to my name! My obsession for learning and developing still hasn't changed but is now geared towards finding ways to get better results for my clients across all digital marketing platforms - This often results in "Doing Things Differently" hence the companies slogan.Recently, I've found a new purpose that works alongside my company which is to not only deliver unprecedented results for the client of Yakk but also help other small to medium business owners that want to learn to dominate the digital space themselves. This is done through workshops, I'm hosting and speaking at. We cover everything a business needs to know to stand out from the heard and get customers banging on their door to do business!
