The latest UK exports arrive in town

It’s coming up to four months since I touched down in Nova Scotia from merry old England, and so far, it’s been a blast. Discovering a new city has been an exciting experience, especially one that is as open and accessible as Halifax. On the strength of my previous visit here, I had anticipated a warm welcome for my family from the local community, but this has extended to the business environment. There has been a genuine interest in hearing a fresh perspective and new ideas. All of this has made a refreshing change from doing business in the UK, where the attitude can be far more prescriptive and limiting.

Yet if I cast my mind back two years, Halifax and Nova Scotia were unknown quantities. I knew nothing of the region between Montreal and Newfoundland. When I began planning a move to Canada, my view was cast to the West Coast and the established media industry of Vancouver.

So when do you take a leap? That’s the perennial question in business and in life. And it always comes down to finding the right person.

We’ve just made the leap to “Journeyman 2.0″…by hiring Nic Fieldsend as Business Development Manager and Producer. Nic has all the qualities of a classic British sports car, like a vintage Jaguar. He’s sporty, smart, refined. Under the hood, there’s horse power, speed, intelligence and experience. And after driving for many years on the other side of the road, he brings new perspective. Go for a ride with Nic and you’re in safe hands.

So where are we going on this leap? That’s what we’re working out. It’s the first time I’ve had another person in addition to myself, taking the wheel to help build the business. And we’re looking at offering more services, better client relations, expanding production capacity and building the team. If you’re a small business person, it’s intimidating to make such a decision alone. If you’re thinking about taking a leap, I say go for it, but do your homework and get the right advice…and stay open to the gifts that serendipity brings… (more…)
