Fauziah Dato Talib - Starting The Business
I loved the good life, spending money that, of course, at that time I did not have and getting into debt at an early age.
Thus started my first external experience on the art of negotiation � I made an appointment with the Bank Manager and tried to negotiate my payment terms by offering to work for the bank.
Suffice to say that was not an acceptable proposal.
Failing that, I started to try and find many ways to complement my meagre student allowance to pay my debts at the same time.
This led me to rolling my sleeves up and getting my hands dirty- working with Thorn Ericsson as a data base entry manager during the day to serving at restaurants at nights, working as a paralegal administrator with British Coal Enterprise to a sales assistant at a fashion house � Joseph Tricot.
All this whilst I was still studying in England. This was one of many experiences I of what it was like to earn a living.
When I graduated I landed my very first job in the public sector which involved travelling � this was where I saw several entrepreneurial opportunities in the countries I travelled to.
Whilst I worked in the public sector, I started selling clothes and shoes that was bought from the countries I travelled to and bringing them home and selling them to first family and friends and thereafter setting up network of sales people on commission to distribute further.
I raked in 300% profit on my sales for this first venture.
