About
I am a global authority on assisting companies to grow and scale from multiple 6-figures to 7-figures, 8-figures and beyond. I have coached and mentored over 110,000 business owners and know the vital components to growing a massively successful business balanced with an incredible family life. I currently own 14 businesses one of which is on its way to becoming his first billion-dollar business in less than 24-months!
I am a South African native and serial entrepreneur with over 3 decades of experience in building multiple multi million-dollar businesses globally, in many industries and economies. I founded Make Your Mark Training and Consulting in 2004 with a passion to assist businesses to realize their full revenue and profit potential and do it with heart, making a positive impression on those their business impacts: staff, colleagues, vendors, families, customers and the community. I honestly am an absolute business genius and can assist you out of any challenge - my creativity is something to experience and witness!
I built Make Your Mark on the core values of Community of Trust, Respect the Individual, Integrity, Commitment to Excellence, Open to Possibilities, and Unconditional Gratitude. I also place people and planet over profits.
I am one of two Canadians who are part of an Elite Group called the Transformational Leadership Council founded by Jack Canfield (Chicken Soup for the Soul series). I am a Wisdom Council member with the Evolutionary Business Council. I am also a #1 best-selling author presently with four #1 International Bestsellers and have co-authored books with Dan Kennedy & Brian Tracy. I have also won two Quilly Awards and has been inducted twice into the National Academy of Bestselling Authors in Hollywood.
I have articles and interviews that have appeared in many local and international print media Including The Globe and Mail, Vancouver Sun, Inc. Magazine, Seattle Times, and Reno Gazette. I have also appeared on many TV channels as a guest business expert: Global, MSNBC and CTV to mention a few.
I was featured in the movie, Finding Freedom in Your Second Fifty that has helped tens of thousands of people. I have also been blessed to be mentored by Sir Richard Branson and some of the Dragons and Sharks from entrepreneurial TV shows, Dragons' Den and Shark Tank. Some are now personal friends!
Be ready to be Colinized!
