Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal and business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Angeline Gillings, CEO of AMP-G, LLC, located in Miami, FL, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a Business Development Partner who supports business owners and leaders to be less frustrated and burned out on the job. I achieve this through coaching, speaking, and training. I work with my clients to focus on developing powerful custom-fit strategies along with results-driven actions that lead to their desired results, all while enjoying the kind of personal fulfillment and lifestyle they've worked so hard to achieve.
Tell us about yourself
I have over 30 years of diverse experience working with high-performance global teams to deliver cutting-edge, high-impact results in support of revenue and profitability. Growth through global marketing strategy, brand development, award-winning campaigns, and enhanced portfolios through innovation. I believe that being intentional about achieving professional success while living your best life is key. From my own experience and having met a number of business owners & leaders who have been spending extra-long hours doing work at the expense of meaningful family and other personal time, I started my own business to provide upliftment in both business and personal goals. Business Owners and Leaders who are feeling frustrated stressed, and overwhelmed do not need to feel alone in their situation. I provide support for my clients to be their creative, inspired, happy selves, living their desired lifestyle in harmony. Happiness at work feeds into creating and living beautiful moments with family and friends. I see myself as the Business Archangel with wings of passion and empathy supporting the upliftment of others.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
So far, I have felt most satisfied with the work I have done through speaking engagements with large groups of young upcoming entrepreneurs sharing about the right attitude for success and overall integration in the business environment with passion and commitment to excellence in their field of choice. This has been my primary way of giving back to the community based on my own knowledge and experience.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Easily the start-up. At the early stage, you quickly need to move from being a specialist (that is, focusing on things you do best) to being a generalist and learning to dabble in all facets of the business until you are able to afford to hire the required support team.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Understand your strengths and what you are passionate about. Where these two intersect starts to define what your business could look like.
- Be knowledgeable about the market environment and, most importantly, understand who you are serving. What problem are you solving, and how will you differentiate?
- Have a very well thought Business Plan that represents your Vision and Purpose. It will be your guide through the ups and downs and, most importantly, helps to keep you and the team focused.
