Name: Dominic Carolan
Age: 52
Years in Business: 30+
I started my business life at 20 with a number of different entrepreneurial ventures and then launched my first proper company when I was 23 from the spare room in my father’s house. I had no money, no contacts and no business education – and in 1992 and we didn’t even have the internet! Over the past 29 years myself and my business partner have grown that business into a group of companies in the leisure industry – surviving two recessions, several ‘brink of failure’ moments and now Coronavirus as well.
I have also invested in and advised a number of different businesses across a range of sectors including events, travel, insurance, commercial property, organic foodstuffs and various e-commerce businesses. These businesses have often been distressed and in need of some kind of transformation.
I created this website for two reasons:
- To highlight that most people get into trouble at some stage in their business life and this is totally normal.
- To use my 30+ years business experience to help people to navigate the difficulties they find themselves in.
Whether your troubles are financial, legal, managerial or more to do with how your business life is affecting you personally, it is most likely that at some stage in my business life I have experienced exactly the same thing.
For a friendly chat with somebody who has been there and done it – and somehow survived business life for 30+ years – email me [email protected] or use the contact form on this site. We can set up an initial call which will be informal, confidential and entirely without any obligation.
