Sneak Preview Of Donut Video Content

April 09, 2009 by Marketing Donut

Here is a little taster of the video content you will be able to access on the Marketing Donut website from the 20th April.  We are working with Your Business Channel to produce top quality informative content from experts across the UK.   In this short clip from an interview with Tim Smit, he talks about how to build highly successful business relationships.  Let us know what you think:

Tim Smit did something which many people said was impossible. He raised almost £100 million and then built the world's largest greenhouse in a huge hole in the ground.

The Netherlands-born British businessman is widely recognised as one of the most accomplished entrepreneurs in the UK. Educated as an archaeologist, Smit became heavily involved in the music industry before turning his focus to the Eden Project.

While many thought that Smit would run out of energy and money, and therefore fail, he led the charge do raise funding for the initiative, and then led the project to build three transparent biomes in an old china clay pit in the south of England. The biomes contain different eco-climates which represent climates found throughout the world. The Eden Project aims to educate people about environmental issues and engage them to do something about those issues.

If you have an idea which you want to turn into a reality, a challenge which you need to face or a business which you would like to grow, it would be worth your while taking a moment to listen to what Smit has to say.
