Part 1 of 3 part interview with internet entrepreneur, Simon Blezard who talks to BusinessWings about starting a social network. In this podcast Simon discusses how he started the business and what the highs and lows of running a social network have been. Learn how Simon started the business after working in online marketing and advertising for 15 years, how he has found the transition from being a corporate man to being an internet entrepreneur and why he believes his social networked company will turn recruitment on it's head.

On starting his own business, Simon says:

We have one life and potentially one opportunity to create a brand or a business... I think when youre starting a business you just need to put your head down and say: 'I dont care if this fails, I actually need to make it fail.' If you cant make the business fail then its going to be successful.
