After experiencing the rise of online sales of vacuum packed mattresses in the Uk and the lack of players in the Australian market, I designed, sourced and marketed a range of mattresses for my online business.I soon learned that just having bedding experience didn't make up for my lack of online or marketing skills and possibly the greatest lesson I learned from the experience.

And the reason I don't see failure in a negative way.The failure of the business was down to the lack of my knowledge of online retailing. Three months prior to me launching, Koala mattresses launched with 2 amazing tech guys and the PR of their business done by Steve Smith, the Australian Cricket captain.I couldn't compete with their marketing, knowledge or budget and closed this business down.

Having emigrated from the Uk to Australia I wanted to learn the similarities and differences in business and customers expectations, so that I had a better understanding of what it would take to ensure my future success. Even now, 12 years later there is a marked difference between the two.I ran the operations and sales for Perth Foam and Felt & Fibre which were both under the Peacocks banner.

With the development of vacuum packed mattresses I started an e-commerce business selling mattresses online. Having inside knowledge really helped me understand what the customers needs were so I could create a brand that said what it did, and stood out for being different from all the others.At the time this was a very new market and gained traction quickly, however, this business also created a conflict with my other business and I didn't want to damage mine or any of my customers so… Show more With the development of vacuum packed mattresses I started an e-commerce business selling mattresses online.

This was the best first job I could have asked for and taught me so much which still serves me well today.I learned so much more than just retail as I was involved in all aspects from front of house, warehousing, deliveries, home visits, display to negotiating with suppliers. And most importantly, how to value and exceed customers expectations.I worked my up to department manager before an opportunity arose to break into field sales.

I started a side business as I saw a niche that wasn't being serviced, which I called Video Box Advertising.When you hired a video it was placed in a video box which had the stores name on. So what I did was sell the space on the video box to aligned companies like take away's and printed new covers. Meaning that every video which got leant out was advertising to a captive audience.It was a great way for the video stores to get fresh covers printed for their store at no cost… Show more I started a side business as I saw a niche that wasn't being serviced, which I called Video Box Advertising.When you hired a video it was placed in a video box which had the stores name on.

Meaning that every video which got leant out was advertising to a captive audience.It was a great way for the video stores to get fresh covers printed for their store at no cost, and for aligned business to advertise to their perfect audience.With the demise of independent video stores my market shrunk which resulted in closing the business down.
