It is no secret that the World is getting more and more unhealthy with each passing day. People are becoming more sedentary, their nutrition is getting worse and there are many other health hazards all around.
With those, we start hearing more about type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, coronary diseases, anxiety, depression and other obesity-related diseases…
With a society that’s getting more technological with every minute, it’s a huge challenge to fit ourselves on a healthy lifestyle. We never have the time, means or even the will to change that. So, it becomes more of a MENTAL issue than a physical one.
That’s where I come in…

successful multi-million dollar Australian IT company, which celebrated
its 21st birthday last year as a recognised leader in delivering information
and records management services to Government and businesses.
In 2020 I co-founded an AI startup to support small businesses with
content marketing, a challenge I also faced. As CEO, I’ve led the
development of an AI Content Engine, which generates unique and
original marketing content. Our AI content engine writes a range of
content for our customers, including blog, LinkedIn and Facebook posts.
As a recognised expert in systems thinking, for 20 years I’ve helped hundreds of large organisations to restructure and automate their systems to cut costs and refocus staff on higher value tasks.
About 5 years ago I tried to reposition Sensory7 to helping small business owners systemise their operatons. I developed strong networks in the personal development industry, but didn’t break through with my offer.
I learned a lot about the struggle small businesses experience trying to produce the volume of marketing content required to attract and engage customers. Most have to learn marketing alongside learning to run their business, which takes time.. Writing marketing content consistently is hard, and can take a small business owner over 50 days effort annually to manage active social media channels plus a blog, taking their focus from working in, or on, their business.
I used my systems expertise and experience to build SimpleMarketing.AI for these small businesses, designing it from the ground up to help them to content market consistently and successfully.
