Hi, I’m Ovidiu Puscas. But most people call me Ovi, for short. I started in the world of business quite young. When I was in 12th grade, I quit my job at the local Hungry Jacks (that’s Burger King, for the non-Australian’s reading this) and started doing freelance Graphic Design. Having to put myself out there to find clients and bring the work in, I had to quickly learn about the business world. I got a taste of it all and loved it.
Now, many years later down the track, I run Emmix Pty Ltd (a digital marketing company) and started a venture, with two other Directors in Sydney, called Volt Grid (specialised PHP/MySQL high-availability hosting). To be honest, I do get a thrill out of ‘starting’ something, but I’m also driven to see it through.
This blog here serves to document some of my thoughts and musings about the world we live in, insights I’ve gained about life and work, and different perspectives worth sharing. I look to blogs of the likes of Seth Godin’s and would like to see that one day, too, this blog will resemble something of his thought-provoking, eye-opening, digital readings.
Education
Bachelor of Business, with majors in Management and Marketing.
I chose this specific degree because it had two vital elements for me – gaining knowledge about how to market (how to bring in customers or clients), as well as knowledge on how to manage (how to make things work, efficiently and profitably).
