About the Author
Mark Rhodes is an entrepreneur, mentor, international speaker and trainer in success who shows people how to massively improve their results with little or no extra effort! He is also the author of Think Your Way to Success , published in 2012 by Capstone.
Mark empowers individuals in their lives, careers and businesses. He has also “been there and done it” – from the ground up, he started, built and ran his own Internet software company, which he then sold to a USA Silicon Valley organization in 2001. This was just two years after starting the business in 1999. Mark’s clients included top brand names such as The Body Shop at home, Virgin Cosmetics and Dorling Kindersley Publishers.
On selling his company, Mark retired at the age of thirty-five, but only for fifteen minutes before he got bored!
Mark was keen to figure out how he had become successful and now spends his time teaching others, so that they can achieve their own dreams. Mark’s focus is on what he believes to be one of the most crucial aspects of whether someone achieves success or not, their “success mindset”, as well as the business-specific topics of “winning more sales” and “exceeding goals” – because of the simple fact that most people don’t set a big enough goal! In everything Mark does and teaches, communication and the words we use are paramount.
In addition to speaking at conferences and events, Mark is a trainer and mentor for people who want to succeed. Mark makes everything so easy to understand and implement. His natural down-to-earth style and the fact that he teaches the exact same tools and techniques that he uses every day in his own life is a refreshing change.
Mark speaks internationally for many types of businesses at both conferences and internal staff development events.
