Dan Visits New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership
Careers & Coffee: Building your online brand
SEOMERS isn't just about marketing. We are a company that wants to work with and help the local community.
What's it like to run a business while running a charity? Kayleigh Norris from New Anglia local enterprise partnership wanted to find out.
Dan, our founder is well known for speaking about mental health. He started a mental health charity called MANUP? back in 2019 as an event. Due to COVID, the event couldn't happen in 2020. Dan changed his focus by turning MANUP? into a CIO/Charity (awaiting approval). He started a rapidly growing video community on Facebook that talks to men about mental health and related topics.
Kayleigh asked Dan to join a chat something called 'Careers & Coffee interview' which is watched by students. We spoke about running a business, living with an online world & why Dan started MANUP?.
It was a great chat.
