The Mentor with Mark Bouris

This week I am joined by chef Pete Evans to talk about his new business venture, Healthy Everyday Pets. It's a pet food company aiming to be the healthiest animal food in the country. We talk about the business - but also a huge range of other topics, including wellness, authenticity and motivation. Pete is a fascinating and sometimes polarising guy - so it was interesting to hear from the man himself about what makes him tick. Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by Sally and Jo Godfrey, who are the founders of grain-free bread business called No Grainer. They started the business because of necessity - being diabetic and coeliac - but they have since realised the market for grain-free products is skyrocketing. When I first met them on The Mentor TV show, they were close to shutting down - their fridge was broken, they had no business systems and weren't making any money. We catch up about how they're going since being on the show and whether they're still putting into practice all the things we worked on. They're two hilarious women with a great story - so make sure you tune in.

This week we're joined by Joey Scandizzo, just after he's announced as the Australian Hairdresser of the Year for an incredible fourth time. We talk about how he got into the game and why he keeps entering awards, how to build a team culture where nobody wants to leave, and how his products range, Eleven Australia, came to be so successful. Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by Jaye Edwards, founder of hair salon group Edwards and Co. He's only 28 but has 6 salons around Australia, built on innovation by hiring a mix of employees and contractors - and maximising the earning potential for both of them. He's a gun at social media, using influencers, recruiting and training, and has a really sharp business mind. We talk about everything that's happened from his humble beginnings as an apprentice and I ask why he's so bent on improving himself.Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by Kim from Cronulla Florist - who was featured on the second episode of The Mentor TV show. Kim came to us exhausted from working all the time and not having any energy left for her son and family. After taking on board our advice, she's now employing staff, her business has never been more profitable, and she's found a much better work-life balance. We talk about turning things around, asking for help, using social media and the art of up-selling. Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week, I’m joined by Johnny Di Francesco, chef and owner of Gradi Group, a hospitality group with restaurant ‘400 Gradi' in Melbourne and soon to be worldwide. Johnny was the first Australian crowned the world’s best pizza maker in 2014 and knows how to get a restaurant right. Johnny was on The Mentor TV show as an expert helping out a struggling pizzeria, so we talk about how to create a good working environment, how to run a family business and why passion used in the right way is so important in business. Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by Stephanie Wimpenny to talk about her experience being on my TV show, The Mentor. Stephanie and her family were in the first episode, formerly known as Ubiquitous Realty - and they had some big problems! But since being on the show they've taken all my advice on board and their business is starting to work. We talk about being in a family business, what's important in real estate, and how Stephanie is working towards her goal of being a successful agent.  Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by Bianca Bowron-Cuthill, who is the Head of Customer Success at Intuit QuickBooks. That means she knows a lot about helping business owners get their accounting right, take back their time away from paper invoicing and to really get on top of their numbers. Bianca and her team have been a big help to the businesses on The Mentor TV show too, which shows how so many people aren't getting this right. We have a great conversation about motivating teams and figuring out what matters to customers.

This week I'm joined by one of the expert guests on the TV show, Jack Singleton, who is chairman of Roses Only. I've known Jack for 20 years when he took over the Wizard advertising account - and he's gone on to bigger things with Australia's largest flower delivery company, Roses Only. We talk about how it's so much more than a flower company, it's a technology and logistics company. Listen in to find out how much testing and refining Jack and his team do, and why brand storytelling is so important.Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?

This week I'm joined by the first of the experts I've called in to help on The Mentor TV show - Matt Lancashire. Matt is the principal of two Ray White franchises in Queensland, and the leading sales agent for Queensland, recording upwards of $120 million in home sales per year. We talk about the help he gave the Ubiquitous Realty family from the first episode of the TV show (now trading as Moreton Bay Realty) and the tips and tricks that have turned him into one of Australia's top real estate agents. Join the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack?
