The New Era Begin!



Hey! What a month it has been! From all the waiting and patience June 18 2009 was the day The World At Your Feet starts its new era. The launch of its new book called 'Three Strikes to a Successful Entrepreneurial Life' and the board game called 'Teen-Trepreneur.'

With guest speakers Tina Bettision and Lily Lapenna making the event possible, we even had Levi Roots pop in to enjoy the action!

This month brought alot of press and media related action with interviews with the Big Issue Scotland, BBC Asian Network (Twice), Article on Bangla Mirror, Eastern Eye getting local attention first before going national!

Had events at Merrill Lynch who are always very supportive and even a trip to Leeds to inspire both Primary and Secondary students! Even Beermat entrepreneur Mike Southon was at the event at Leeds and having Twittered about me, i get a call from a speaking agency who want myself to be on their site! Fantastic!

Coming up this week are more radio interviews on BBC Shropshire and BBC London 94.9FM. Next month July 8th is my trip to Nigeria with my uncle as i have been invited by the former presidents wife to inspire and motivate over 3000 budding entrepreneur on how not to be a victim of this RECESSION!

What a month and a start of a new journey! I'm Excited!

Planned trip to Nigeria

Hey everyone!

The World At Your Feet is buzzing! If thats the correct term to use! I've been invited by Nigeria's Governing body to speak at one of their largest events of the year where over 5000 people will be attending. The event is called 'Under 30's financial summit' and i'll be representing the UK at the event!

The event takes place on July 10th and i'm really excited. There are also plans in Nigeria for my book and board game to become a major hit! There is also a possibility that after the event on July 10th in Nigeria i could be off to Brazil on July 17th if my application is accepted on the Prime Ministers Global Fellowship. This would be one big Summer!

The new book published by Marshall Cavendish and board game called 'Teen-Trepreeneur' will be launching on June 18th at Swanlea School from 6pm. I'm looking to connect with potential investors, retailers and media and press associates to me The World At Your Feet brand to be heard. Interested? Please RSVP on http://theworldatyourfeet.eventbrite.com/

See you then!

A week with confidence!

On monday this week i had my video filming with YooDoo, thanks again to Mike Southon for getting me involved. YooDoo are fantastic and inspirational for business new-comers, wanting help and inspiration on how to get started.

On wednesday that week, had a fantastic meeting with no other than a former Dragons Den tycoon 'Simon Woodroffe.' On his luxurious boat and no this wasnt about asking for investment but both Simon and I are the only two ambassadors for an enterprise organisation called 'StepUp.' But Simon did mention he'll help in getting my board game into retail!!!

On thursday...! Had a meeting with a potential investor for 'Teen-Trepreneur' - The World At Your Feet board game, and it went very well. Fingers crossed he comes back with a positive verdict!

And today, i'm off to Dollis Hill to talk to a bunch of young people giving them the inspirational and help to succeed as an entrepreneur through enterprise! I'm really looking forward to it!

Next week is big, getting everything sorted for the launch of 'The World At Your Feet' book and board game, with a possible launch date of June 4th!

Stay Tuned!
