Lucy Loves Max Parker

This week, I am joined by the founder of Matchstick Group, Max Parker. I was intrigued by Max’s story because he turned his life around, from being in the depths of despair and struggling from day to day to now running a thriving talent agency. We talk about how Max started a talent agency, how the tragic death of his good friend Joe Lyons affected him deeply and how it was one of the driving forces behind him following his dreams. He also talks about his company’s ethos ‘people before profit’ and why it is so important to him, his team and his clients. We also discuss his future plans for his business and his inability to cook or relax!   Here are the highlights: (02:22) Why he started a talent agency (07:36) People before profit (12:00) Joe’s Buddy Line (19:00) Compliments Max has received (22:10) The importance of finding the beauty in life (25:06) What Max finds annoying about himself (38:31) Max’s website (39:14) What makes Max’s heart smile   Find out more about Lucy and listen to more episodes at http://lucygourlay.com
