Business Profile: Grow Global Group

Describe your business

We run a global health and wellness company under the umbrella of Forever Living

Every fortnight we run an Information Evening in The Silverbirch Hotel (8-8.45pm.) to allow others interested in starting something for themselves the chance to see what it is we do, how it works and most importantly…could it work for them.

Why did you start your own business

We always had a desire to have our own business. For years we talked about it- we had lots of ideas but never one that we realistically pursued because of the huge investments involved. When the opportunity arose to start our own business working alongside Forever it ticked all the boxes- we saw a way of starting something with very low investment but potentially a great return.

What are the best things about running your own business

We get to choose when we work and when we don’t, which means we can work very flexibly around our twins- a god send during school holidays as we don’t have to worry about childcare. It was also great to partner with a global company as it made it very simple so us to expand our business outside of Ireland very quickly.

What are the main challenges facing the business

The biggest challenge for us is that sometimes we never know when to stop. We work with a large team of business owners all over the world and we always want to see them progress and develop. When they need help or support we always make sure we are there for them- and that includes our team in Australia even though it means working at opposite ends of the day!

What advice would you give someone starting their own business

Don’t expect overnight success; by giving it time, working hard and remaining consistent will get you where you want to be.

Can you describe in 3 words running a business means to you

Exciting, Challenging but very Rewarding.
