‘I said I wanted to make it to the Worlds, and I told people. The following year I was at the Worlds and came ninth. For me it’s just having a relentless mentality of ‘I will do it’.’
‘As a kid I always wanted everyone’s attention and to stand out. I think that carried through to the army but in more of a determined way, as I won the Soldier’s Soldier award.’
‘You see people drop like flies as you go through army training. But I’m a very stubborn person and I would not drop out. It was about making your life hell as fast as you can, to try and find out who will break.’
‘People have a lot of expectations of others that you can feel are being forced on you, like getting up at 5am and reading daily etc. But if you’re not enjoying doing that stuff, then it doesn’t actually have any benefit to you.’

Andy Rao

Andy studied Psychology at university, which was his springboard into the world of marketing. He realised that to sell successfully you have to put yourself into the shoes of your customer and understand their why. Andy started his marketing career working closely with dozens of Shropshire businesses, all of whom had something different to sell. During that time, Andy picked up the skills he uses today to tailor each marketing solution to his client's businesses, the industries they work in, and the different types of customers they need to reach.
