Peter Kakris
Business Strategist, EntrepreneurPeter has extensive business experience and excels at mentoring business owners to create a successful, fulfilling business.
He is always looking for efficiency gains and exploring ways to make your business a great investment of your time and energy.
Peter is down to earth and gets a buzz out of assisting business owners to transform their organisation and lives to fund a great lifestyle.
His philosophy is:
“Why let this year be another ordinary year when you can choose to take the first step to making it an extraordinary year?”
Peter is a 21st Century business coach. Too many businesses are being left behind because they are too busy to research modern computing trends to run and promote their business. Peter has the flexibility and expertise to help you with the nuts and bolts of business coaching in traditional businesses, as well as utilising his skills in IT and online marketing.
Peter teaches his modern approach to businesses and runs workshops for business owners on not just their business skills, but also their mindset. He has an amazing ability to communicate in a way that everyone can understand, and he wins audiences over with his friendly, light hearted personality.
Peter spent 12 years in IT, building a business from scratch to a couple of million and a team of 20. He was successful but not satisfied. Maybe you can relate? He sold his company to focus more on his young family, but continued to pursue his love of business by being a Director and Shareholder of a number of Private Companies.
During his time at the helm of his Company, he learned a great deal about the ins and outs of business, what works, and what doesn’t. But since selling his company, he has taken his knowledge to a new level. He is an avid student of modern marketing techniques (which are evolving all the time), personal development and the mindset required to be a successful business owner. He has invested a great deal of time & money in learning since selling his company.
Peter is a passionate family man and he now practices what he preaches, which is to make his business revolve around his family life, rather than his life revolve around his business.
Peter is a hands-on father of 2 children, and a supportive husband of Stephanie who also runs her own business: coaching people to reach their full potential. Stephanie holds a Masters in Sport Psychology which is in alignment with Peter’s beliefs: Peter also loves sport and the sees the parallels of sporting teams in the business environment.
As a former computer programmer and business analyst, Peter’s extensive experience includes creating and developing business systems for many different industries. This provided him with an opportunity to learn the needs of various industries, from very large to smaller organisations. This role required him to systemise and automate manual processes, where he utilised his strong problem solving and creative thinking skills.
“I look forward to helping you to bring your business into the 21st Century, making you twice as productive with some simple, inexpensive tools available online, together with my coaching”.
Peter only works with a small number of clients at a time, as he also focuses his efforts with his current business, a software development company.
