Founder | Sold 2023

After an illustrious career growing and exiting 3 businesses, I’ve now turned to investing and advisory to fuel my passion for business. But success hasn’t come easy with lots of twists and turns along the way. 

After quitting school halfway through year 11, I went on to launch multiple businesses with little to no success.

Hitting rock bottom at 26 with no money or assets, I refused to quit partnering with a good friend to launch a door to door sales company in Wollongong. 

Taking the lessons learnt from my first few failures, I built the business from the ground up to a multi million company within a very short period of time before ultimately selling it. 

From there, I went on to start, grow and exit another company, this time in the automotive industry, before moving back to launch my speaking career.

Using LinkedIn to grow that business, I saw a huge need in the market for companies looking to sell and market themselves on LInkedIn. 

Not long after that I started linkfluencer®. Over the space of the next decade I grew the business to an international sensation helping over 35,000 businesses in 65 industries and 35 countries before ultimately selling it in 2023. 

Along the way I’ve been fortunate enough to win numerous awards, judge/present at hundreds of events worldwide and become a spokesperson for entrepreneurship for some of the biggest news outlets around the world. 

Today I spend most of my time as Chief Operating Officer at eventflo, teaming up with two mates to help pioneer a new era in events.  

When I’m not doing business, I like to get involved in social causes I’m passionate about, travel the world, invest in property, spend time with family and take my car out on the track.

24x7 Direct

Devang founded 24x7 Direct in 2001 in order to help businesses find a more efficient way to outsource.

Identifying a need for more affordable and effective customer acquisition, 24x7 Direct decided to provide their services on a performance basis. This meant that businesses only had to pay per customer they acquired.

The company began with just one client, but now regularly works with 85 different businesses and has offices in three different countries.

Their clients include some of Australia’s largest businesses in a variety of industries, including telco, utilities, and finance.

Recently, 24x7 Direct has also expanded into helping businesses move some of their workforce offshore. This has saved their clients upwards of $40k a year in labour costs.

As CEO, Devang sets the direction of the business, as well as taking on a strategic operational role for campaign ROI, database mining, and business development.

Chief Executive Officer

Aqua Donut 

Aqua Donut started in 2013 out of a unique idea to provide a dining experience on the water.

The company offers customers the ability to rent a circular self-driving boat complete with a BBQ and a dining table.

With nothing else like it available in Australia, the business quickly grew after its inception and achieved profitability in just its first year.

Through September to April of that season, Aqua Donut operated at nearly 90% capacity and gained new customers every day.

Drawing on his background in customer service and marketing, Devang focused primarily on customer experience and digital advertising to help expand the business.

Due to the immense success of Aqua Donut, the company was acquired by a local business in 2018.

Partner

I’m the founder & CEO of 24x7 Direct. Operating since 2003 we have offices in Melbourne, Australia & Cebu, Philippines. 

Essentially I help businesses build Offshore teams in the Philippines to rationalise cost & scale operations. 

Imagine if you were freed up from non-revenue generating activity (admin) and someone else did it for you. The return on investment in getting back those extra hours every day goes without saying. Trust me, I know first hand. I’ve run a business in Melbourne since 2003.

————————————————————————————————————————————————

Here’s what you’ve got to ask yourself. 

❌  Do you perform admin functions such as bookkeeping, social media, payroll, website maintenance or SEO on your own?

❌  Do you find it challenging to recruit, train and keep staff engaged in your office?

❌  Do you spend weekends and after hours doing the admin work because your business may not be able to afford an onshore staff member?

❌  Do you need to scale your business to be competitive & grow?

————————————————————————————————————————————————

Let me simplify this for you.

✅  We recruit and manage the staff member for you in the Philippines

✅  We supply the complete package (software/hardware/infrastructure) for your staff member to perform their duties

✅  We support continuous improvement through best practice coaching & performance management

✅  We enable process optimisation through a weekly dashboard report on KPI’s

All for one flat monthly fee with no lock-in contract.
