Chris Spurvey is a former VP Sales at KPMG and now runs his own business helping business owners and entrepreneurs have better conversations with clients and customers.

 What he has to say in this interview about goal setting and using positive visualisation to achieve what you desire is both helpful and inspiring. I've already started using these techniques and am noticing the difference already!

This episode is brought to you by my book "So You Want to Start a Business; the 7 steps to create, start and grow your own business"

My guess is that you are here for one of 2 reasons:

Maybe you are curious about what it might be like to start a business?

Perhaps you’ve been wondering if you have what it takes? If your idea will work or even how much it actually costs to build a successful business?

Maybe you've been in business for a few months or a year or 2 and things aren't going quite the way you thought they might?

I’ve written this book to answer pretty much all of your questions “So You Want to Start a Business” and you can download the first 20 pages at www.thestartupsteps.com

My 15 years of experience working with start up and small businesses are condensed into this book.

This is your step by step guide to launch your business smarter and faster and I’m so excited to be sharing it with you and can’t wait to hear about your progress.
