Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out to share my journey and seek your feedback as I explore new business opportunities. Five years ago, I moved to England from the Czech Republic, full of ambition. Now, at 35, I live in Lancashire with my wife and two children. I’m currently reflecting on my business approach and looking for fresh perspectives to reignite my passion and drive.
Growing up, I dreamed of becoming a professional pilot, and while I’ve achieved that, the lifestyle doesn’t align with family life and doesn't bring freedom I seek. Since 2018, I’ve run my own Digital Media & Marketing Agency, leading a team of professionals, providing services such as pay-per-click advertising and social media management. We later expanded to producing creative content like promotional videos with drone footage, post-production and website development.
However, scaling the business has been more challenging than expected. Larger companies have in-house teams, and smaller businesses these days often lack the budget or clear strategy. Ultimately, I lost key people and clients, and it became clear that this business wouldn’t grow into the vision I had hoped for.
Now, I’m shifting focus. I want to build something scalable and lasting—ideally in property investment or a growth-oriented sector. I’ve learned the value of delayed gratification, and I’m ready to invest my time and skills in something that brings long-term rewards. My assets include drive, independence, reliability, and a company portfolio in both the UK and EU markets. I aspire to create something meaningful. I’m passionate about flying, sailing, and adventure connected to travel, and I want to build a business that gives me the freedom to pursue these passions while securing my family’s future.
To leverage my marketing skills I recently started a YouTube channel where I share my love for flying vintage aircrafts, working on my sailboat project, and family adventures. My dream is to fly seaplanes and travel by sailboat in Scotland, sharing these experiences with my wife and children. But financing these dreams has been a challenge, and I’m ready to move forward with new opportunities.
Until now, I’ve been spending my time in the dirt, down in the metaphorical trenches. But now I’m ready to rise up, dust myself off, reload, recalibrate, and re-engage with a fresh perspective. If you have any thoughts, ideas, or connections that could help in this new direction, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s connect!
Best regards,
Libor
