Dawn Gibbins - first Business Podcast

Dawn Gibbins joined Jon Coulter, Host and Producer of BusinessEars, the on-line podcast show where inspirational business people share their secrets of success.

"I love having the opportunity of interviewing really dynamic business people" Jon says, "and Dawn was fantastic. She had that rare quality of being perfectly happy to reveal some of the mistakes she has made along the way, as well as displaying her infectious enthusiasm and very positive tips for success."

Jon expands: "Dawn put things into perspective when she described the early beginnings of what has become a world-leading brand - a multinational success. She turned down a one-off opportunity to make £2,000 and converted it into a first order worth £20,000. The results of Dawn's first business decision generated over £44 million in 2007, with profits of more than three and a half million. Not to mention creating wealth in more than 20 countries and supporting manufacturing plants in eight territories."
