James McNish
Wantage
I have spent many years in Sales & Marketing, although I would be the first to admit I wouldn't have thought of it in those terms.! At the tender age of 16 I entered the big bad world of sales, where I worked in the Army * Navy in London for a shoe concession. It was a big deal for me back then. I met lots of celebrities and heaps of MP's and the world was just beginning to open up for me.
Skip forward 10 years and by then I had worked for a major electrical group and rose to become a 'Top Salesman' in the group for my particular chain, for which I won awards and bonuses. I had a spell in a Roman Catholic Seminary and soon realised I was marketing God to my community! Faith is an important part of my make-up and although I would never have thought of my role as an evangelist/marketeer, that was exactly what I was doing!
10 years further on, I had driven Buses, Taxis and had successfully created my network of friends and contacts. I had moved from London by this point and was now settled in Oxfordshire. A massive difference to the hustle and bustle of London.
I now live with my loving partner of 8 years with 5 rabbits, a hamster and an American Akita called Trey!!
I am launching a career with a Swiss company called Arbonne and will be changing the lives of the many people I will come into contact with!
