My first career as a dancer gave me an excellent grounding for my second career in sales.
Delighted to have found something I was actually good at, I worked in sales for agencies (Bluhalo/GyroHSR and WPNChameleon) and tech firms (many startups including the ill-fated, but ahead of its time PowaTag), before setting up Pitch121 with my business partner Fergus Parker.
I met Fergus working together in a sales team of a content marketing agency. We were early believers in using content to convince, getting in early, and persistently staying front of mind to create sales success. This is the essence of what our teams do today to help agency owners and tech entrepreneurs grow their businesses.
My only regret is not setting up a LinkedIn group called “I ‘heart’ LinkedIn”, when I first thought of it in 2008.
My previous career as a dancer saw me dancing on cruiseships and nightclubs. The highlight of my career – before setting up Pitch121 – was a gig with Artful Dodger in Dubai (just the once, I made the DJ’s record jump). At the time, Dubai only had 4 registered dancers, so I was rather infamous!
