This week we have the honour of having Heath Knight aka “Hspark Electrical” on the lounge.
Heath is many things - a devoted husband to Rhi, a loving dad to Airlie, a business owner, a connoisseur for land cruisers + Toyotas, a YouTuber, an influencer, a cage fighter (who may just eat your head off in the ring), a lover of mostly black uniforms, a sparky, plus more!
One thing you can always guarantee is that Heath is going to call it how it is, call things how he sees them, and be 100% honest regardless of the consequences.
On this pod we discuss Heaths business journey, the importance of authenticity, pricing, branding, instagram, YouTube, business ownership, what he would advise to younger business owners, socialising for networking and much much more.
Available across all major streaming platforms.
