Welsh tennis ace now mega rich with own yacht business after famous win over Wimbledon star
Welsh tennis ace now mega rich with own yacht business after famous win over Wimbledon star Welsh star Ian Flanagan was once hailed as one of the UK's brightest tennis players, yet after injury curtailed his career at just 22 he has built a business that is on its way to being worth £1billion Ian Flanagan beat Mark Philippoussis in 2004 (Image: Getty ) Ian Flanagan, once a rising star in British tennis, is now at the head a burgeoning business with a projected value of £800million. Originating from Graianrhyd, Wales, his potential as a future Grand Slam contender was cut short by injuries at 22. Flanagan has since founded a Manchester-based yacht accounting software firm. His enterprise, Voly, started in 2016 and is renowned as a financial management solution for superyacht owners, but Flanagan's career trajectory could have diverged significantly. He was a junior tennis prodigy at age 15, with his gold medal victory at the Youth Olympics in 1996 cemented his budding status. Yet it was his upset over Wimbledon 2003 finalist, Mark Philippoussis, at Queen's Club in 2004 that truly put the limelight on Flanagan. The now 43-year-old has recently shared insights about his transition from tennis professional to a high-flying business guru, reports the Express. "I got injured and had to stop, but I'd always been somewhat entrepreneurial," he told Insider recently. "Even as a kid, I loved figuring out ways to make money." Today, Voly stands distinct as a robust brand, and what began as an eight-person team has expanded to a workforce of 130, addressing clients globally. Flanagan's current ambition is directed towards propelling Voly to the prestigious £1billion mark. Article continues below He explained the origins of his enterprise, adding: "We recognised a gap in the market to professionalise yacht management, knowing that while captains are experts at navigation, they aren't CFOs or finance directors." Despite beating ex-Romanian star Victor Hanescu, after the huge victory over Philippoussis, Flanagan was sensationally denied a wildcard into Wimbledon in 2004. "It was unbelievable that I didn't get a Wimbledon wildcard. The LTA [Lawn Tennis Association] need to take a good hard look at themselves,' he told the BBC at the time. Flanagan made a splash early on in his tennis career (Image: Getty ) Nevertheless, Flanagan has come to view his past achievements with a sense of fulfillment, acknowledging that he's "been there, done that." Yet he credits the traits honed on the tennis courts as the driving forces behind his current success. "The most important factor that got me here and helped me build the company is a relentless need to win," he added. "I hate losing. I don't even let my kids win when we play football, tennis, cricket, or even Dobble. The day they beat me, they'll know it's because they did it fair and square. Article continues below "That competitive streak has pushed me through setbacks like failed investments and business ventures which haven't worked out. In professional tennis, you don't win every match. You lose, lose, win, win again, lose again, then win. It's a cycle, and business is similar." And he managed to squeeze in a tennis analogy while expressing his ambition to excel in business. "If you sit back and say, 'That's a great business, I'll rest on my laurels,' you end up losing," he added. "Take Carlos Alcaraz this weekend. If he stops training for six to 12 weeks, he's not going to win Wimbledon. He won't be in shape, he won't be ready."

Long-awaited retail park cafe has arrived but was it worth the wait
It's been quite a wait for coffee fans. Signs have been suggesting Black Sheep Coffee were opening a cafe at Broughton shopping centre for some two years. But on Thursday the chain - with branches around the UK - finally flung open their doors. Judging by the response so far it's clear that it's set to be a success. Franchise owners - and husband and wife team - Haris Mirza and Saba Jamshed will run the cafe - in addition to one they operate in Preston. Hari, 41, told me their Preston one took a year to be as popular as this Flintshire one is now so the future looks positive. Haris said what makes Black Sheep Coffee is different is its Robusta coffee naturally contains twice as much caffeine as normal Arabica coffee beans but in a good way. It's less acidic and it's more chocolatey and nutty so it's got the right notes. "It's what drove me to open this cafe," he says. "I was literally just a customer like anyone else. I would just go and buy a regular mocha and then I just ended up taking on the franchise. "The Robusta coffee beans come from India and the equivalent of the Arabica beans - which is the Blue Volcano which is fruitier - come from Colombia. There are other coffees as well. "There are so many options to customise - different syrups like hazelnut. caramel....., and whipped cream." Haris says it's a friendly place where staff including him and his wife chat to customers. Customers order at the front, pay at the next counter and collect at the far end. The orders are made on one of three touch screens, much like in McDonald's or M&S cafes. There are lots of bagels, sandwiches and croissants and the like. The meal deals looked good. I went for a Chicken & chorizo farmhouse sandwich, flapjack (in a plastic wrapping) and cappuccino. The drink is from their "Blue Volcano" range and I went for added caramel. It's quite strong and rich and exactly what it's difficult to make at home. There were many Matcha drinks too. Matcha means finely-ground powder of green tea which can be added to milk, water or another drink. While here I had one with lemonade. It tastes rather like Lilt or 7UP, from back in the day, without the fizziness. And while it looks somewhat unappetising it tastes sweetish and light, and with some ice, it was a refreshing pick me up on a warm and muggy day. The Chicken & chorizo sandwich was on fresh bread and with a cottage cheese filling. That made it lovely and moist and it was delicious. I would have preferred the flapjack not to be in wrapping and to be a bigger square on a plate from the counter. But it was soft and fruity and a lovely snack. The decor was unpretentious, like the Black Sheep Coffee cafe I'd been to in Cardiff. This one has exposed, ventilation ducts, faux distressed plank flooring, breeze blocks and corrugated metal on one wall. They give it an industrial look. The grey artwork personalises this branch. Striking images of two racehorses presumably hurtling around the Roodee circuit (Chester Racecourse) and Roman Chester city walls are a nice choice. It's the first Black Sheep Coffee branch in North Wales - between Clogau and Lush at Broughton retail park. And with a relatively captive audience it should do well. The facts Location: Black Sheep Coffee, Broughton retail park, Flintshire CH4 0DE. Food: Tasty and fresh with imaginative coffees, shots and Matcha teas. Atmosphere: Unfussy and relaxed.

I went from homeless to entrepreneur — these are my key tips for success
At 15, Simon Squibb's dad died suddenly, leaving him homeless, out of school and unable to find work. Then, he had a brainwave that turned his life around. 'I was so desperate to get out of this situation I was in,' he tells Metro. 'I walked past a big house that had a really messy garden, and thought maybe they'd pay me to tidy it a bit. So I knocked on the door saying I had a gardening company (which I didn't) and amazingly, the guy who answered was like 'alright, how much?'. 'I just picked a number out of thin air – £200 pounds a month. Then he shook my hand and that was my first ever deal. Suddenly I was a gardener with a gardening contract.' Fast forward three decades and that same entrepreneurial mindset has made him a millionaire, with 19 companies under his belt alongside a bestselling book, What's Your Dream? You may know Simon from social media, where his brand of gonzo-style angel investing has earned him an army of loyal fans (who he calls dreamers). After selling his businesses and retiring at 40 in the midst of Covid, Simon noticed a growing desire for people to become their own bosses, and embarked on a mission to help wannabe entrepreneurs do exactly that. He now spends his days asking strangers what they'd do if there was nothing standing in their way, and has invested in over 60 firms as a result of their answers, from fintech to food delivery. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video But it's not as simplistic as 'if you can dream it, you can do it'. And while the 51-year-old argues that everyone – regardless of background or qualifications – has it in them to be successful, they need the right outlook and support to get there. He explains: 'I want people to know that it's possible, if they have a purpose or a mission or a hobby, there is a way to put it into a business context and make money by doing what you love. I want education around that. 'If I had my way. I'd change all the Job Centres to Dream Centres, and give people the entrepreneurial skills I'm talking about. Then you could get a job, but on top of that, start a company and be your own boss. And why shouldn't we give people that power?' In his view, one of the biggest obstacles is the idea that the business world is only for a select few. In a recent study, Shopify found that 61% of Brits want to start their own company, yet the majority are held back by a lack of confidence in their abilities. However, Simon's own experiences have led him to believe the opposite; that adversity actually helps people thrive. 'The people that succeed don't just want it, they need it,' he says. 'Personally, I've been most excited when I had no money; I was broke, I was homeless, I had nowhere stable to sleep, so if I knocked on a door and got told to f*** off, I had nothing to lose.' You may be reading this thinking 'my plate's too full already', either with family responsibilities, a job you can't afford to leave, or a lack of connections. According to Simon though, you can still build a flourishing side hustle – one that may even become your main gig. You just need to keep these eight things in mind. In terms of the idea itself, forget what's lucrative or will make the most money. Instead, Simon recommends building on your own strengths 'Whatever you're really good at, get great at it.' he says. 'In school, they'll tell you that if you get a D in biology, you need to do more biology. But I'm saying don't do more biology if you're brilliant at public speaking or sports.' It has to be about passion too, with Simon advising 'dreamers' to 'match [their] hobby to their income' – like the one he helped who turned his love of supercars into a popular (and profitable) social media brand. Your route to the C-suite may also be through spotting a problem and solving it. Aged 19 and working at a hotel after his landscaping venture shut up shop, Simon realised they were missing a trick by turning people away if they were full. Instead of hanging up when there was no room at the inn, he got nearby hotels to give them a commission for each customer they passed along – and from that germ of an idea came his second company, Accommodation Express. If you aren't sure what to do, think of the little issues you or your loved ones face day-to-day, and start from there. For those of us used to a standard 9-to-5, it can be difficult to self-motivate or be the sole decision maker – vital skills if you're running a business. 'Frankly, working for yourself is hard,' says Simon. 'And being an entrepreneur is especially hard at the beginning because it's a huge learning curve.' Over time, this new role will become natural to you. You just need to stay the course and keep your eyes on the prize. When Simon walked up to that door as a down on his luck teenager, he was fuelled by that aforementioned survival instinct. The fact he didn't know anything about landscaping was an afterthought – something to be dealt with once he'd landed the client. In that moment, he was terrified, but he sees fear as an 'asset, not a liability', explaining: 'Fear was designed to help us: you prep more, you push more, you fight, and it's actually a superpower.' It may be easier said than done, but once you grip the nettle and step out of your comfort zone, you'll start to enjoy the adrenaline rush. Just ensure you actually make good on your promises. 'The school system tells you if you get an answer wrong you're a failure,' says Simon. 'But look at Edison's lightbulb, it failed 99 times before it worked. So you need those 99 times.' The entrepreneur recommends looking at failure as a chance to grow, while using your wins to galvanise you when times get hard. He recalls: 'The first person that opened the door that time I started the gardening firm said yes, then the second, third, fourth and fifth person all said no to me. But because I had one, I knew it could work – and sometimes we need to remember that. 'Then that business failed. But here's the thing: before it failed, I made loads of money, I learned how to sell, to do contract structures, to rent equipment and do lease agreements. That's learning you couldn't take away from me.' Even if you've got past these mental blocks, life can still get in the way of being an entrepreneur. So when time is your main constraint, Simon has one main piece of advice: prioritise work/life integration over work/life balance. In his case, that means bringing his seven-year-old son along to help him shoot and edit content, but it could translate to a variety of other businesses. 'If you're making candles or whatever, get your kids involved in the business,' continues Simon. 'When you're doing something that's important to you, you find the time.' While many of the people Simon chats to worry about the logistical side of business ownership, he subscribes to the 'keep it simple' way of thinking. In one example of a mum whose journalling company he invested in: she had a great idea but logistical knowledge around manufacturing, so she checked major retailers' websites to find out their suppliers, then called them and went from there. More Trending 'Figure it out,' says Simon. 'Some doors you pull, some you push – don't make it more complicated than it needs to be.' Sustainability should be the goal of any business owner, so you need to plan ahead. If you don't, you may find it's still a slog even years down the line. Simon explains: 'It could be that you're doing it all yourself and you should have brought someone in to help, like a good partner. I see people make that mistake all the time. View More » 'Others get too greedy, and when they make money they put it straight in their pocket. It's vital to invest in a good team.' The fact is, not everybody can – or even really wants to – own their own company. But Simon believes that shouldn't stop you applying the 'entrepreneurial muscle' to your working life – and that this starts with asking your boss for equity in the business. Pitch an idea that'll save them time or cash, show them the value you add and how having a stake in their success will motivate you to do even more. The worst they can say is no, right?
