Complete One How We're Helping to Create Entrepreneurs, Not Small Business Owners

All too often people confuse entrepreneurs and small business owners; Complete One has shared how they are playing a part in creating a new wave of entrepreneurs and adding significant value to the world of business innovation.   

As a nation, we are becoming fixated on labelling anyone who is involved in business as an entrepreneur.  A small Business Owner and an entrepreneur are in fact two single unrelated titles.  With vast research centred around traits and characteristics of an entrepreneur, the title is belonging more to an individual who is always on the lookout for more. More knowledge, more expertise and more wealth.  Whereas a small business owner instead, is often focussing on developing customer solutions and creating a sustainable business model. They do this through methodical practices centred around the sustainability of the business model. 

Entrepreneurship can be classified as a lifestyle as opposed to a career choice.  With high correlations between behaviours and often isn't considered an option, instead of an innate thought process.  Entrepreneurs are measured on their creativity, risk taking the excitement and their ability to shape or future through change.  As a society, Complete One entrepreneurial supporters believe it is time to disassociate the two entities to ensure that each party is offered the correct support to reach their potential. 

Complete One is one of the fastest growing sales and event marketing firms in the North East and is experts in helping businesses boost their ROI and gain a positive reputation on the market. Through face to face consumer communication, the firm can aid their clients in understanding each customer as an individual and works with them to provide a personalised service which encourages greater brand loyalty. 

Through their tailored business development opportunity, Complete One can contribute mentoring opportunities to the North East's entrepreneurs.  Glen Lowes is keen to offer support and guidance to ensure entrepreneurial capabilities are surrounded by an environment which encourages creativity and organic situations which allow risk taking abilities to be tested and rewarded.  The firm has assisted many successful entrepreneurs across the country.  They can establish themselves in the business world through the company's vast network of sales and marketing specialists.  The firm also boasts an impressive database of clients, and Complete One have become a firm favourite with big brand company’s due to their diverse range of human resources, and commitment to developing innovative and winning campaigns.

Complete One get inspired by Gary Vaynerchuk’s “what to do after college” speech

As graduate season approaches, Newcastle-based outsourced sales and marketing specialists Complete One have been inspired by American serial entrepreneur.

Complete One appreciates the fresh ambition and enthusiasm that graduates bring to a business and they have a proven track record for developing aspiring professionals into successful businessmen and women. They do this by being able to inspire them.

Gary Vaynerchuk is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, speaker and internationally recognised internet personality. His YouTube channel has over 730,000 subscribers. One of his videos targeted towards new graduates captured the attention of Managing Director at Complete One Glen Lowes. The outsourced sales and marketing specialists hold a daily morning meeting, with the objective to educate and motivate their staff and contractors, and this week the “what to do after college” speech was the inspiration for one of the firm's meetings.

In the video, Vaynerchuk explains to new graduates that they have a five year window and that now is the time for them to be massively risk-orientated and not to play it safe. Vaynerchuk argues that the early twenties are a time when people can grind at their highest levels, and put in 18 hours a day to make the life that they want. Vaynerchuk encourages graduates not to go practical and safe and states that it is the time for them to attack the life they want.

“This is the best, and easiest five years of your life, it’s time to attack what you love and want to do because you have no real baggage. So many people are hungry for short-term gains. You only get to live life one time; it’s time to understand what is happening and map behaviour for something that will impact you for the next 80 years of your life, ” states Gary Vaynerchuk. 

Complete One is an outsourced sales and marketing firm based in Newcastle. The firm specialises in a personalised form of direct marketing, which allows them to make long-lasting connections with consumers on behalf of their clients’ brands.

Graduates play a major role in the company’s continued success, and the morning meeting had a significant impact on the graduates at the firm.

Complete One: The Power of Goal Setting

Managing Director at Complete One, Glen Lowes advocates the power of goal setting, and encourages budding entrepreneurs to set goals that keep them motivated. 

2016 was a record-breaking year at Complete One who exceeded the £1million turnover target.  The focus for 2017 is now firmly on growth.  “Last year we invested a lot of time into setting up a reliable infrastructure, concentrating on nurturing and developing the group of talented and ambitious individuals we work with.” Said Glen Lowes, Managing Director at Complete One.    Mr Lowes credits the progress at Complete One to goal setting.  The award-winning entrepreneur and business owner consistently sets new goals and argues that people should not underestimate the power of goal setting, particularly targets that encourage motivation. 

Mr Lowes has revealed the basics for effective goal setting as follows:

1. Specific
Setting specific goals is vital! It’s crucial to consider what you want to accomplish, what it will take to get there and vitally why you want to achieve that goal.  Mr Lowes believes that people fail to follow through with their goals because they are too vague.  “People who set vague goals never go anywhere.” Said Mr Lowes. 

2. Measurable
Measurable goals are imperative as it allows someone to track their progress.  If someone can see that they are improving then, it will motivate them to keep going. 

3. Attainable
For someone to stick to their goals, they have to believe that they can achieve it, claims Mr Lowes.  While it’s key that goals are exciting and motivating, Complete One's Managing Director, Glen Lowes, argues that people need to set goals that are both attainable and exciting. Boring goals are not motivating and will fail to inspire people to take action. 

4. Realistic
At Complete One they encourage their staff and contractors to dream big and set big goals. However, Mr Lowes reiterates the importance of making those goals realistic.   Goals that are too unrealistic will fall through.  It’s vital to start slow, take action, and keep moving forward claims Mr Lowes.  

5. Timely
Having a deadline will intensify focus and motivation.  Working under the constraints of a time limit will force you to produce results, fast.
  
When speaking about the company goals for 2017, Mr Lowes revealed his personal goals for the year, which are centred on developing his role as a mentor and coach.  “One of the greatest pleasures I get from being a business owner is playing a role in the career development of fellow professionals.  I am invested in the progress of the people I coach and mentor.  I gain a real sense of gratification in helping others to succeed, and this year I am committed to broadening my network.” Said Mr Lowes.

Complete One is an outsourced sales and marketing firm based in Newcastle. The company specialises in a personalised form of direct marketing which allows them to make long-lasting connections with consumers on behalf of their clients’ brands. By working closely alongside their clients, the firm can design and implement campaigns which are tailored to their target consumers.   Since the firm's launch in 2012, they have steadily expanded and diversified their client portfolio and this year they are determined to extend their market reach throughout the UK.
