Serial Entrepreneurs

For some people running one business is just not enough, they have that burning desire to start another new enterprise – welcome to the world of ‘Serial Entrepreneurs’.

I had a wonderful meeting with Laura Middleton last week, whose company, Sunderland Parents, is going from strength to strength and is about to launch ‘The Office Rocks’. It is hard to believe she has just had her third child only four months ago! Where does she get her energy from?!

Having the drive and hunger to succeed has to be commended and I believe that success breeds success. Laura’s new business is to provide social media and virutal office support to other businesses, she has already secured her first contract to a company in the North West. Well done Laura!

It then makes you wonder are serial entrepreneurs in it for the money or for the acheivement? Another example is Chris Greenwood who was recently a guest speaker at our Enterprise Club. He started trading as Kliq Creative, providing favulous videography for local businesses. A year down the road and Chris is proud to present Chocolate Chip Wedding Photography and enjoying every minute of it!
