Having a business plan is crucial to know where your business is headed – Marcus Blandin
It is true that you can become anyone you want to become. The world is an ocean of possibilities that you need to dive in to rise to success.
This is Marcus Blandin’s mantra for success. Blandin had humble beginnings but went on to create massive wealth in his life thus far.
He came from a modest home where he was just a young child dreaming what his future entails.
His dreams inspired him to begin his entrepreneurial journey at a young age, and from there, the sky was the limit. One of the things that Marcus believes in is not letting your situation define you or your future.
If everyone would let where they come from dictate the rest of their lives, the world would be a very dull place. Marcus hopes that more people realize that the best thing about the world is that you get opportunities to succeed wherever you are irrespective of your current situation. Becoming a wealth coach is his way of helping people realize their dreams. Dreams they may have put aside for the time being to put food on the table.
Through his coaching sessions and digital courses, Marcus educates people on methods to build wealth and become successful. He is passionate about giving back to society and having come from a humble beginning himself, he understands well how challenging it is to climb the success ladder.
Today, Marcus is not only a wealth coach but also the founder and CEO of Millionaires International, FYI Business & Financial Solutions. He sits with the top 1% population.
He is also an award-winning Global Business/Wealth coach, an international speaker, and a top financial literacy authority figure. Through his coaching, Blandin has helped thousands of people make profits of 6 figures plus, and change their lives for good.
He has educated tens of thousands of people on financial literacy and achieving financial freedom. Besides educating people on financial literacy and wealth coaching, Blandin is also a two time number one best-selling author.
His books on wealth management have successfully have helped thousands of people restructure their lives and their financial goals.
His companies and non-profits serve and elevate others to become successful and positive contributors to society.
Marcus believes that empowering more people to become successful will make the world a much better place for everyone and the coming generations. Financial literacy is increasingly important in the current scenario, and we need more people to walk in the footsteps of Marcus Blandin.

THE Times Ladies Association, a group consisting of female staff of the New Times Corporation (NTC), on Monday commemorated this year’s International Women’s Day with a call on women to empower themselves through education, unity and healthy living to contribute meaningfully to national development.
The event, held at the NTC’s boardroom, was attended by management members and staff of the corporation and was to celebrate the achievements of women and reflect on their role in society.
In her address, the President of the association, Mrs Georgina N.M Quaittoo, said the global celebration, marked annually on March 8, recognised the economic, political and social achievements of women while raising awareness about gender equality.
Although the international celebration fell on Sunday, she explained that the association decided to mark the occasion on March 9 to enable members to participate fully and commemorate the day in their own way.
Speaking on this year’s theme: ‘Rights. Justice. Action. For All Women and Girls,’ and the global campaign theme: ‘Give to Gain,’ she the association had over the years worked tirelessly to support the growth and progress of the corporation despite the challenges they faced.
Urged members to commit themselves to deeper service to humanity and the advancement of women. She said women were unique, resilient and invaluable to society, stating that they deserved respect, appreciation, kindness and love for the vital roles they played in families, workplaces and communities.
According to her, members of the President, who is also the Editor of The Spectator newspaper, encouraged members to empower themselves academically and take advantage of opportunities to improve their lives and careers.
She also urged them to maintain healthy lifestyles by going for regular medical check-ups, exercise regularly, get enough rest and support one another.
Moreover, she advised members to accept leadership positions when given the opportunity and to exhibit qualities such as hard work, confidence, patience, compassion and responsibility in both their homes and workplaces.
Contributing, the Chanel Marketing and Circulation Manager, Mr Alfred Koomson, said women played critical roles in society and deserved to be supported and appreciated.
He urged men to recognise that they were often vulnerable species without the care, support and contributions of women in their lives.
He, therefore, commended women for the invaluable roles they play as mothers, caregivers, professionals and leaders, stressing that society would be incomplete without them.
