Paul: Do you remember the TED talk that rocketed Simon Sinek to marketing stardom?

Start with Why was the book that followed and had everyone talking about finding their purpose. That visionary drive that pulls you out of bed and powers your ambition. Blasting away the uncertainty, procrastination and fear of rejection. Did you work out what your “why” is and make it the foundation of your business?

I’m doing a marketing makeover on David’s website. He’s a piano teacher by day and a recital pianist by night. He wants to share his passion with the world and he’s throwing all his energy into testing his way forward.
