There are days when I think "what did I ever do to deserve this".

Of course that exclamation can mean two completely different things depending on the tone, and on any given day you could hear me proclaim it. There are days I feel so blessed to be doing what I do and other days... well not so much.

I am an entrepreneur living in Ontario with my wife and three amazing kids. I currently own and operate 4 businesses that keep me busy and keep me asking, "what did I ever do to deserve this".

One of the businesses I started in 2009 is this design and marketing firm PURFiX creative incubator. PURFiX (sounds like: per•fix) provides an existing business or start-up with creative design and marketing solutions to help them grow.

a PURFiX life

Over the last 3 years I've been blessed to help over 50 businesses:
• launch their business from scratch
• improve their company image and presence in their markets
• strengthen their company's brand awareness
• create or improve on their online marketing strategies

From goalie pads to aluminum catwalks, interior designers to international air shows, every job and customer has been unique. The diversity keeps my work exciting and fresh, everyday there is something new.

leaning FORWARD

I love the image of leaning forward. The decisions we make in our mind start to become a reality by a physical act of leaning forward. You may be too scared to take a step but your mind get’s your body to just lean forward a little, and then before you know it you’re moving. Overcoming fear by learning to lean into the future is something I continually work on as I find my way. I have had to make a few course corrections along my journey (code for I’ve had some major flops). But I continue to go back, re-think my vision and start leaning all over again.

Today, I find myself filling my days meeting with incredibly creative and passionate people looking for someone to bounce ideas off. Some come with a business that has been around for 30 years, others come with an idea jotted down on a napkin...

If you have an idea or questions about how to grow your idea, I would love to hear from you. The future will be shaped by those who have the courage to lean forward into it. Click this link and fill in some info basic info to start leaning today.
