BEST MOMENT in BUSINESS: “I think the best moment in business so to speak for me, was getting American Express to sign up to the website. It just makes you think if a company as big as that is prepared to use the site, then other companies will too.” Another best moment included the setting up of British Balls magazine, he said.
WORST MOMENT in BUSINESS: “Without a doubt I`d say the stress of getting the site up and running, advertising and costs has been the worst moment so far. Before the launch party a couple of weeks ago, I was up until about 3.30am for a few days running. Initially it look time to get people to agree to it and I think some were put as the momentum builds, I can show them portfolios of companies who have signed up and their vouchers.”
