We look forward to working with brands and companies in the coming months to help tell your stories to the masses. We are also looking forward to doing more tech and skincare reviews in Sydney, Australia. Going forward, we will no longer be publishing stories on the weekend anymore. The 30 minutes with the DailyStraits.com podcast would continue with a minimum of one guest per month. Besides that, we are also working on several other projects, such as LazyBum Skincare and Blitz Hair Oil Spray in which we document the process of starting a brand from scratch in Australia and share the journey here with our wonderful readers. This way you will know what it takes to be an entrepreneur first-hand by reading our bespoke column “Building A Brand” which would be published once a week. We will try our best to be as transparent as possible and share both the good and bad experiences that we go through in taking this brand to the next level.
