Biography

I am David Gowans, a proven Entrepreneur and Business Mentor. My aim is to help people across the world to break free from their normal routine and to create the life that they desire.

When I joined the business networking clubs they wrote this bio about me: “A successful entrepreneur, Davie created and led a construction /utility business in 2005 from scratch with two partners, built it to over £13. 5M pa with 300 employees, and sold it in 2012 for a multimillion pound deal. In 2014 he left the company and focused on his passion – travelling the world”

I tend not to shout from the rooftops about it, but it is true. My old company IQAgroup. co. uk continues to prosper under new ownership. Under my leadership, the company was polled as one of the fastest growing companies in the country and won business awards based on our excellent people development philosophies. My motto was to “reward those who do the work” and I firmly believed in incentivising staff to perform well and then they would share in the Company’s success. This worked well and proved very successful. So much so, that I retired from work way earlier than I could ever have imagined as a poor kid growing up in the streets of Glasgow.

Now, my lifestyle is to travel to new countries whilst writing blogs, working on my new business book, and providing expert coaching sessions to clients across the world.

Unlike many other coaches, I have learned most things in business by actually being successful at them. The proof is in the pudding as they say, and being semi-retired at a young age is a fantastic achievement. I will provide clients with real life experience and advice learned from my success in business, and how I managed to be free from life’s constraints before my 40th birthday.

Today, my main focus is to share this knowledge and advice via The Success Coach newsletters and blogs. My purpose is to bring more awareness to people so that they can have the confidence and direction to make big changes in their lives. Normal society puts too much pressure on people, builds fears and limits the belief system of people at an early age. Then people seem to be trapped in this life cycle and generally live an unhealthy and stressful life, work until beyond pension age, and then at the end, they regret not taking action earlier in life. My mission is to help people question their current situation, and challenge them to have more belief that they can make big changes and make their world a better place.

Peace and Love.
