The Dancing Queen Knows Something About Business
"Sounds unbelievable. My Melbourne dancing queen becomes a global business tycoon. I always believed in you. You are a female version of myself when I was your age. Only you have more balls. You are a real entrepreneurial woman and I was too long a successful manager with golden gloves. I admire people like you. I started my own businesses far too late. I am proud to be your friend."
I woke up at 5am this morning to this message on Whatsapp.
I woke up at 5am this morning to this message on Whatsapp.
To put it in perspective: The man who wrote this is one of the most successful business people in the world. Possibly in the top 200. He is a legend who has built major companies, written books and been on the public speaking circuit.
Having run a big global company for most of his life, he semi-retired and now has built a technology company from scratch that unlike my measily company - already turns over more than $50 million in just a few short years.
To get a message like this, at a time like this... I am chuffed. Thank you.
I don't feel like I am that successful and am certainly no tycoon but gosh, to wake up to a message like this has made my day and year. God bless.

24 Feb 2013Genuine compliments and encouragements are hard to come by in the oh-so-competitive corporate world. It would certainly feel good that this successful businessman has recognised your hard-earned achievements and shown respect for your tenacity. On a side note, it's always lovely when someone sends you a thoughtful message bright and early, it just brightens up the rest of your day.

17 Feb 2013This is such an a great compliment to receive. These type of messages inspire you and keep you motivated especially from some with such a respected businessman.
ReplyThis also helps not only for yourself but for you business! If someone with such success is impressed other businesses will be more comfortable and trusting with your company which will improve your image and your the number of clients coming in.
