EPISODE 27: In 2008, Emma Reynolds made headlines in the Sunday Times having been named by Management Today as one of the 'Top 35 Women under 35' to watch. Her new Human Resources/Marketing consulting business was killing it in the U.K. A year later she was forced to shut down her business and found herself at the Wimbledon car boot sale trying to sell her belongings so she could pay for dinner. Fast forward to today. Emma is Co-founder & CEO of e3reloaded, a Creative/Human Resource agency based in Hong Kong that generates US$1 Million in annual sales. Listen to this case study to learn the twists and turns Emma's life has taken and to glean precious insights about how to start and build a global consulting/agency business. In this case study, you will learn:  Why it's not important to be degree-educated to start a business, and what is. How Emma and her business partner creatively financed their new consulting startup, e3 Unlimited (an unconventional and bold move, not for the faint-hearted). The biggest mistake that led to the downfall of e3 Unlimited, leading to bankruptcy. How Emma bounced back and started a similar business halfway across the world in Hong Kong, and what she did differently that time around that has led to tremendous success. Who she surrounds herself with and wants to emulate, and why. What it takes to start and build a consulting/creative agency, and how you can start one in the next 4-6 weeks.
