Launch

Stephen's first venture into publishing began almost accidentally. He used to make up bedtime stories for his two young Daughter's and his youngest thought they should create a book and sell at local Craft fairs to raise money for charity. So they did exactly that! Then Richard Branson and Virgin Atlantic heard about this project and purchased 2000 books to give away on their long haul flights! This made headline news and this humble bedtime story sold around the world! www.greathotairballonadventure.com

Stephen's love of seeing how much joy this brought to people, triggered an idea to write personalised sports book to help inspire, encourage and motivate people of all ages. The business launched from home and from one order grew from here!

After 70 minutes of presenting, answering questions and listening to great offers, the difficult and nervy decision was made to accept Peter Jones offer and the great opportunity to work together. It was decided after careful thought after the show to remain a family business. You can see the full episode here
