53. Make a Dent in the Universe - a Conversation with Daniel Priestley

53. Make a Dent in the Universe - a Conversation with Daniel Priestley

Show Notes

In this weeks episode I sit down with best selling author and entrepreneur Daniel Priestley who is the founder and EO of a global business by the name Dent Global. I discovered Daniel back in 2018 when he appeared as a guest on the podcast of Instagram influencer Nicole Bremner. I learned that her journey had begun with Daniel's book "Key Person of Influencer" and that she followed up by joining his KPI Brand Accelerator. Not long after this I had a copy of the book and in 2019 joined up to the same KPI Brand Accelerator. Today's episode is full of value so get out a pen and paper.  Links to Daniel's various books and resources below. Hope you find this one useful - enjoy!

51. Psychological Tricks and Techniques Designed to Make you Buy

Show Notes

In this weeks episode it's just me on a bit of a rant after attending an online seminar that featured some online programs and courses being sold using some pretty blatant and shameful selling techniques. The worst thing was that these programs and courses were snapped up by the attendees in seconds proving that the techniques are super effective. But it wasn't until I heard the big BS promises being made by the speaker that I decided to devote a whole episode to it. Hope you find this useful - enjoy!

25. Micro Mobility and a Conversation with Thomas O'Connell

Show Notes

Thomas O'Connell (LinkedIn Profile) is the Founder and CEO of Moby, a recent entrant into the Dublin bike sharing market and holder of the second of just 2 licenses issued to operate in that market.  A serial entrepreneur Thomas has spent his career focussed on the 'wheeled good'.  He started a highly successful distribution business with the 'KMX kart' - a recumbent trike that quickly became a global best seller earning him the award of 'Distributor of the Year' from Toys 'R' Us along with distribution terms to supply Halfords, Argos and Tesco.

After the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 Thomas had to start again, opting to take his knowledge of distribution and apply it to the design and manufacturing off his own product - the now world famous 'Y-bike' for teaching kids bike balance.  He eventually merged his business with the business that manufacturers the Flicker bikes and Yvolution was formed - 'Born in Dublin, Raised in California'

In 2019 Thomas started Moby - you can find out more about Thomas' equity crowdfunding campaign at Spark Crowdfunding

In this weeks episode I talk about the often unpleasant and difficult decisions you need to make in order to get through the Covid-19 crisis, or any recession for that matter. If you're a particularly active property investor with multiple projects on the go, a good size portfolio and a healthy pipeline then you need to pay attention. Past successes are often the worst teacher and can lead you into a false sense of security - it time to put away the rose-coloured glasses and carry out a hard-nosed triage-like review of your business and where you stand before the banks get in contact and start seeking a meeting.

In this weeks podcast I playback a keynote talk I gave in London at an event called the 'Commercial Property Summit'. It took place at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Canary Wharf, London on the 7th March 2020 just 10 days before Ireland went into the full COVID-19 lockdown. I chose this for the second episode because it covers a number of topics that will provide a little background and context to my journey. This was my very first keynote talk to a live audience so I was a little nervous and forgot some of my lines but in general I think it turned out ok. Big thanks to Brendan Quinn for inviting me to speak - I have since participated in a number of online events with Brendan and his BQ Events.
