Dean Grey, Never Compromise on Your Dreams

One of life’s greatest challenges is finding a healthy balance between one’s personal and professional life. While some lack the ambition necessary to succeed in an increasingly competitive corporate world, others give everything they have to their careers while neglecting the people outside their work life. Dean Grey is an entrepreneur and business professional who was forced to find balance in his personal and professional life after he became a single father to his daughter Teagan. Without sacrificing his professional ambitions, Dean Grey has supported his daughter with unfailing love and devotion.

Spreading His Voice Around the World

According to Dean Grey on Scoop.it, he learned the value of balance while working in direct selling at Amway. Dean Grey joined Amway in his early twenties and quickly rose to success. He became the fastest and youngest IBO to achieve Pearl level within the company, landing him in the top 0.002% of MLM leaders in the world. Unfortunately, it was at this time that Dean Grey also went through a difficult divorce that left him drained financially, physically, and emotionally. As a newly single parent and devoted father, Dean Grey knew that he could never pursue his professional ambitions at the expense of his daughter’s well being. Despite homeschooling and providing his daughter with all the opportunities she needed, Dean Grey continued his career and in one short year after his divorce, received an award before more than 30,000 people for his professional accomplishments. Together, he and his daughter went on to being recognized on stages around the world as well as in multiple magazines with a global spread and readership.

Dean Grey next took his experience in entrepreneurship and decided to share it with the world. As a means of educating other professionals, Dean Grey founded Freestyle, formerly known as KMI. Freestyle was a successful professional life coaching business that provided resources and education for young entrepreneurs and established business professionals who needed guidance along their career path. Freestyle spread to over 28 countries in the 23 years that it existed, helping Dean Grey reach out to more than two million individuals around the word.

In modern business practices it can be difficult to connect with one’s customer base because consumers are often overwhelmed by the amount of advertisement they see each day. Even the best marketing strategy can be overlooked because they are simply lost in the saturated environment of media that has been created for the public. Business need to find new and more engaging ways for the public to experience and interact with their products and causes. According to marketing professional Dean Grey on About.me, the future of marketing and business lies in gamified social learning platforms. Platforms such as Skylab Apps are making it fun and easy for businesses to stay connected to customers around the world.

Skylab Apps and the Future

Skylab Apps creates social platforms for companies that are hoping to engage their customers through direct interactions with messages, photo sharing, and video. In order to counteract the over-saturated marketing world, "Skylab's gamification allows major brands to laser target consumers, eliminate marketing clutter while building new incremental revenue streams.
