Media 95
Penguin Books SA is to publish Get That Feeling by Ian Fuhr this August, an entrepreneurial journey that led to a multimillion rand corporation. Modesty and a proclivity to break the rules: these are the secrets of Ian Fuhr’s business success.
Over a six year period, his Sorbet chain of beauty salons has attracted over 120 000 loyalty members and employs more than 700 staff. And the number of franchise outlets continues to grow from the current 60 countrywide and branching out internationally.
Fuhr’s story of serial entrepreneurship is not only a fascinating read of a modest man making it big; it offers unique insights into a business triumph that has its roots in understanding cultural differences and particular markets. A spirit of fearlessness, fun, honesty and respect underscores his every venture, guided by the principles of customer service and putting people before profit.
Upcoming entrepreneurs, as well as established business owners, will benefit from Fuhr’s prudence on management in a diverse and divided social environment, including the key learning messages: people, culture and service. These significant concepts have been the foundation on which the Sorbet brand has grown into the largest chain in South Africa’s beauty industry.
