This week on Hardcore MBA we have another star of TV’s The Apprentice (you might remember that I previously chatted with winner Mark Wright). But Bianca Miller was already a top-notch entrepreneur before turning up with Lord Sugar, having started her first business as a dance teacher at the tender age of 12, and had already successfully started her personal branding consultancy before pitching her nude tights business to a national audience.
In the podcast, Bianca and I discuss:
- The path through university, HR, and recruitment that Bianca took before her personal branding business took off.
- The importance of personal branding for helping employees to demonstrate their skills and earn the promotions they deserve.
- Why you need to be patient enough to play the long game when trying to break into corporate consulting.
- How to match your personal style to the industry you’re in while still allowing room for creativity.
- And how to get a business started on the internet before branching out into physical stores.
Bianca is a bubbly, vivacious young woman who was a pleasure to talk to, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy listening to the podcast and picking up some of her great tips and tricks just as much as I enjoyed doing the interview. After you’ve taken a listen, don’t forget to check out Bianca’s personal branding consultancy, her range of nude tights (not just for women, as we learned in the podcast!), and her personal website.
Wow great job getting Dan to do an interview with you! He is the mentor to Dan Lok, an entrepreneur from Vancouver whom I have come to know quite well. Dan (Lok) talks about the impact Dan Pena had on his life all the time. Now I know why!
You mentioned Napoleon Hill and Outwitting book, you wanted to continue but you were interrupted by Dan, what did you want to say?
