More Than Entertainment by Jones 2.0: Recent Episodes
Jones 2.0
The show where I interview people outside of the entertainment industry to discuss ideas, opportunities and strategies to help improve our lives, businesses and finances
After two years we are back!! This week I interviewed Ryan Jones is a 19 year old from London, he is an Amazon FBA seller and overall reseller. He documents the journey on Tiktok @Jonezy6k.
He also happens to be my younger brother so I thought I'd have a chat with him about making money as a teenager
This week I interviewed someone I would call a true Entrepreneur Bradley Jensen. Bradley has recently worked with Nike on their famous “Nothing Beats a Runner” campaign and was also named as O2’s Go Think Big Digital Leader of the Year.
Bradley enables individuals to take ideas and bring them into fruition with well-conceptualised campaigns utilising disruptive innovative marketing techniques.
We sat down with him to discuss everything from cryptocurrency to e-commerce, to his latest business ‘For Fork Sake’, diving deep into the twists and turns of being an entrepreneur when no-one really cares

Key Quotes
The greatest thing is the failures and really understanding the lessons from them
The start up eco system has been extremely glamorised, but when it actually gets to it... It is probably the hardest thing you’re ever gonna do
Start with the problem and work your way back to the solution
People will only care about you if there’s value being delivered to them
Action over words!
Pretending things are fine, is a recipe for disaster
Everyone’s gonna get burnt at one point in their life and if you’re an entrepreneur it’s almost as if you get burnt every day
We under promise and over deliver in EVERYTHING WE DO
We celebrate the small wins and that’s what keeps us motivated
We really wanted to do 1 thing really good, instead of doing 5-10 things mediocre.
