We made it! The first month of Mirus Talent has come to a close and we have been fortunate enough to generate revenue already!
When Molly and I talked about the launch day, I had in my head that we would post a really cool video with epic music and we would make a big statement to the industry. I thought there would be a fan fair of people whooping and cheering as I walked to the local coffee shop to start my day, and every single person I knew would be congratulating me and I would be inundated with good luck messages…. Funny how the brain works.
What actually happened is… I got over-excited and updated my Linkedin on a bank holiday Monday at 9pm, launched the website with the wrong DNS and we ended up launching 6 days earlier than what we had told our close family and friends. Oh… And I didn’t have the fan fair as I walked to the coffee shop… Although I think that was pretty unrealistic in the first place!
So, Mirus Talent was launched. We were live. It was time to knuckle down and get going. After having 6 months off on gardening leave it was a shock to the system and I would be lying if I said I have got completely used to working again!
If we look at the month as a whole it has been incredible. We have partnered with businesses who are focused on being extraordinary companies to work for. We have made placements across contract and perm. And we have even agreed on our first ever retained piece of work.
The learning curve has been steep and mistakes have been made, but that is part of the journey. We have both pushed ourselves out of our comfort zone and we have become better for it. Each day is different and each day we are focused on how we can be better.
Whilst revenue plays a big part for any business, we believe the success of the business will come from being focused on delivering on our purpose.
