Minu Lugu

Do you want to boost your progress exceptionally within just a few weeks? If yes, you should start keeping a gratitude journal, a diary-like positive thinking tool/concept, where people write down things for what they are grateful. Gratitude journals are widely used for personal development to focus the attention on positive things in life.

I had used a similar tool for focusing during my own turbulent early startup times and I knew the potential of it, but I lacked one in Estonian to give it to my mentoring and coaching clients. Therefore, following my ‘Done is better than perfect’ motto, I co-published it together with my partner-in-crime Kristi. 

Publishing the gratitude journal proved to be a thriving success, we have sold over 2,000 copies and counting. Numerous colleagues of mine have implemented it to their mentoring practice and have reported back similar success to mine. 

When you purchase it, please refer back to our website where you can view a short e-course about how to get the most out of it. Oops, the course is yet under construction, so check back frequently, or subscribe for the early course launch warning.

📚 Managing Editor

Executive Coach & Mentor

My mentoring and coaching started when I began my journey as a podcaster and working in a startup. After talking with over 50+ entrepreneurial-minded people over 100 hours about burnouts, how to start a company, how to pick an idea etc. 
I used these lessons to start giving back to startups by mentoring and coaching. Helping new entrepreneurs to begin their journey and helping them to ask better questions from himself. Expanding their thinking and giving new ideas. 
One of my methods is Gratitude and habits training that has been quite successful to turn around people lives and starting a new chapter in their lives. 
Started to teach Linkedin profiles building, company profiles as I see in Estonia a lot of entrepreneurs and companies don't take advantage of this huge network that we have.

Podcast "Let's Get Busy"​/ "Hakkame tegutsema"​

'Hakkame tegutsema' or 'Let's get busy' in English is the most popular weekly privately produced entrepreneurial podcast in the Estonian language. I launched it in 2017, and it was counting over 150 thousand downloads by the end of May 2019. 

I interview people with an entrepreneurial mindset, a societal phenomenon frequently enacted on all scenes of human life. My guests are not A-class celebrities, but all of them have exceptional stories to tell. Some of the topics cover: 

☛ Entrepreneurial mindset and attitude, and why business is not always the one solution fitting 
☛ Talk to people, move around, be active, and great ideas will come
☛ How to tune your mindset towards the result-oriented approach
☛ How to avoid and recover from burnout

The podcast has also evolved into a group Mastermind three-month hands-on fast track program to address and collectively find unique solutions to unusual challenges. Want to find out more? Drop me a line, and let's talk.

Your LinkedIn ™️ Brand Architects. Building your Personal & Company Brand! Get in touch!

You want yourself and your company to grow, but you need help figuring out where to start. That is where I can help.

Hi, I am Indrek, Indrek from Estonia. I am an entrepreneur whose passion and skills lie in helping others grow. But it wasn’t always this way. 
While growing up, I just wanted a regular job with routine and stability. It seemed an easy way to make a living. But over time, I realized that this was no way to grow and develop. 

So as part of a start-up hackathon in 2014 here in Estonia, my team, Sorry as a Service, attended two different start-up accelerators. One was Techstars London, which accepts 1% of startups that apply.
To be sure, we weren’t instant tech stars, having come close to going bankrupt more than once and experiencing other “fun” moments. Then things started to change and near the middle of 2019, we sold the company and turned a nice profit.

But money wasn’t the only reward. As the person responsible for the sale, I learned a lot, primarily the value of open communication and maintaining a positive mindset. Furthermore, I realized my mission. I want to facilitate the development of people and companies. That is why I mentor start-ups, study coaching, and head my newest company, B2B Growth. 

B2B Growth helps people and companies grow internationally via
LinkedIn. Helping unlock LinkedIn’s power for finding new sales leads, building brands, and locating new talents.

✅ Making your LinkedIn profile stand out;
✅ Create a LinkedIn strategy for your personal and company page
✅ Helping to build personal brands 
✅ Writing copy that enhances and builds your reputation on LinkedIn;
✅ Offering company training to enhance LinkedIn usage for key personnel, sales/marketing, and HR.

Whether you are an individual, an entrepreneur, or a company determined to improve your brand awareness locally and internationally, my team and I have the expertise to go beyond the
normal LinkedIn profile writing.
We can’t tell you all our tricks, but we can assure a thorough overhaul of your profile, introducing you to some hacks we’ve created and providing specialist copywriting that avoids clichés and some hacks we’ve created.
