About Shaun Stenning
Shaun Stenning Internet Marketing Head Coach
Hi I’m Shaun Stenning and I’d love to take just a moment of your time to introduce myself. I’m originally from Echuca in Victoria, but I now live in Bathurst with my wife Stephanie and our dog Taylor.
My parents often joke that my entrepreneurial flair was apparent from an early age because at just 8 years old I decided I would begin investing. I rang the ABC Radio National's share specialist and grilled him about what shares my sister and I should buy, before starting my portfolio.
By the age of 12 I was managing a variety of indoor sports at the local sports centre, at age 16 I was running a holiday program for local caravan parks and at 17 I was running pre-season Boot Camps for local football teams.
After graduating from high school I faced a choice between becoming a professional AFL umpire or pursuing a business career. I decided to enrol in a commerce/computing double degree at university, but left before completing the course. I realised that the methods and strategies I was learning were out of touch with what was happening in the market and with what I was learning from my real life business experiences.
I worked hard to educate myself reading countless books, attending seminars, doing courses and just giving things a go. My first business partner and I had a number of early successes, including event managing the first-ever 24-hour fundraising event in regional Victoria.
I continued to use my skills to help the community and after the Boxing Day Tsunami helped to raise $250,000 in 7 days, to help those affected by the disaster.
Currently I am the General Manager and co-owner of Sure Fire Marketing, one of the fastest growing internet marketing businesses, which in the first 3 months, experienced a 400% monthly increase in staff numbers. I have also authored or co-authored 3 best selling books.
Most recently, my passion has been helping everyday people to learn how they can tap into the vast opportunities that are available online, so they can live the lifestyle they want sooner.
