Growing up on one of the biggest council estates in London
I left school without any qualifications
I didn’t really know where my passion lied, however a recurring theme that did become clear early on was that I seemed to be very good at buying and selling things to make money.
I think I always had an interest in properties subconsciously, and wanted to figure out how to get onto the property market – which I managed to do at the age of just 20. This led me down the route of investing and working for an estate agency, which due to my lack of knowledge at the time meant it failed and didn’t work out.
Picking myself up and figuring out my next move, and using my people skills to my advantage, I was able to build a strong network.

I soon bought my next property – now I just needed to find clients to buy it.
Not just any clients, but clients who had money to invest.
Knowing who I was targeting meant I now knew where to find these people and in the process I became very observant of people’s behaviour and started profiling them.

Now I was able to broker deals.
Finally I was getting good and learning real entrepreneurial skills! My knowledge was expanding, my expertise widened, all the while I was honing my skills.
A particular topic that I became obsessed with along the way was keeping a high Credit Score. I learned all the nuances and reasons why people struggle with getting credit through having a low credit score – now I help hundreds of people fix their credit scores to get the credit they need.
Together with my wife Bianca Miller-Cole, we created the Self Made brand, mentoring business owners on how to run a successful business. We’re also authors to the best selling books, SELF MADE, the definitive guide to start-up success and The Business Survival Kit. We now help business owners become their own published authors.
Now I’m intimately involved in 12 business start-ups as a director, investor or shareholder.
and currently act as a consultant to Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and several other businesses – across various industries.
My real specialism lies in advising and assisting SMEs that have just started trading, though are not yet generating revenue.
Being an entrepreneur is one of the best jobs in the world!
